  • Eller logged an assist and three shots on goal in Monday's 6-2 win over Utah. The helper on a Brandon Duhaime tally in the third period was Eller's first point in three games since the Capitals reacquired him in a trade with the Penguins. Eller is at eight points, 31 shots on net, 19 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 20 appearances this season. The 35-year-old should be a fixture on the Capitals' third line, though he's yet to see any power-play time since the trade, which could limit his offense.

  • Eller is practicing with the Capitals on Thursday and is expected to play Friday in Colorado, as reports. Eller was dealt to the Capitals on Tuesday and sat out Wednesday's tilt against Toronto. Eller is practicing on the third line alongside Andrew Mangiapane and Jakub Vrana. Eller had four goals and seven points over 17 games before the trade.

  • Eller won't be an option against the Maple Leafs on Wednesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports. Eller is likely still finalizing things after being traded from Pittsburgh to Washington on Tuesday, so it shouldn't come as a surprise he won't be immediately pressed into service. Considering the 35-year-old center spent seven years with the Caps, Eller should be fairly comfortable readjusting to his surroundings. He figures to move into a third-line center role and should be a heavy factor on the penalty kill.

  • Eller was traded from the Penguins to the Capitals on Tuesday in exchange for 2027 third-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick. This deal makes more sense for the Capitals than it does for the Penguins, as Eller will end the revolving the door of Michael Sgarbossa and Hendrix Lapierre at third-line center in Washington. The 35-year-old Eller had seven points, 27 shots on net, 17 hits and a minus-4 rating over 17 appearances this season, and while the scoring pace is unlikely to change, his non-scoring production could improve in a better team situation. This will be Eller's second stint with the Capitals after spending parts of seven seasons with the team from 2016-2023. Per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com, Eller is likely to miss Wednesday's game versus the Maple Leafs but should be available once the Capitals begin a road trip Friday in Colorado.

  • Eller contributed an assist, one shot, one block and three hits in Saturday's 3-1 win over Montreal. Eller won a puck battle against two Canadiens along the boards and threw the puck into the neutral zone to Blake Lizotte, who scored into an empty net to seal Pittsburgh's second straight win. The helper snapped a five-game point drought for Eller, who has four goals and three assists in 13 outings.
