Jakub Vrana was part of the 2018 Stanley Cup-winning Capitals team. After bouncing around with the Detroit Red Wings, St Louis Blues, NHL Player Assistance Program, and AHL affiliate teams, he’s back in Washington on a preliminary tryout agreement. Essentially, he has a short Training Camp with the Caps to impress the team. If he succeeds, he’ll earn a sweater on Opening Night just a few weeks away on October 12.
The media caught up with Vrána after the first day of Caps Training Camp. Notably, Vrana mentioned how he’s eager to prove he deserves a spot on the team.
