Carl Hagelin promoted to second line, Jakub Vrana demoted to third
Ahead of a game with major implications for both the Capitals and Hurricanes, Todd Reirden has shuffled his top six forwards.
Carl Hagelin has been promoted to the second line and will skate with Evgeny Kuznetsov and TJ Oshie. Jakub Vrana has been demoted to the third. Despite scoring, Vrana had the second lowest ice time among all Capitals players against the Flyers on Sunday and made a cameo with the third line for 1:37 at 5v5. He has 22 goals this season – second most on the Capitals.
The fourth line of Andre Burakovsky, Travis Boyd, and Nic Dowd stays intact.

There has been an awakening. Have you felt it?

Capitals’ Carl Hagelin returns to Pittsburgh as a rival. Sidney Crosby says it will be ‘Weird. Really weird.’
Carl Hagelin may have made a short detour through LA on his way to Washington, DC, but before that, he spent nearly three years in Pittsburgh and helped them raise the Stanley Cup twice.
He was a ‘Caps-killer’ to his new team until recently, but to the Penguins he was “a guy who played [a] lot of important roles for us over the years,” said Hagelin’s former captain Sidney Crosby. “He had a great attitude every day. He was someone who always raised his level of play in the playoffs.”
Hagelin has faced off against the Capitals in six different playoff series, scoring six goals over 35 playoff games. His team has eliminated the Capitals in the playoffs five different times.
He’ll make his first return to PPG Paints Arena on Tuesday rocking the red. Crosby said it will be “Weird. Really weird.”
