ARLINGTON, Va. — The Washington Capitals opened training camp without another member of their 2018 Stanley Cup-winning team. Winger T.J. Oshie is expected to spend the season on long-term injured reserve because of chronic back problems. He is the latest core player to be sidelined after Nicklas Backstrom stepped aside 10 months ago because of a nagging hip injury. Only Alex Ovechkin, Tom Wilson and John Carlson remain six years later. Jakub Vrana has returned on a professional tryout agreement hoping to get his NHL career back on track and earn a contract.
