Marcus Johansson (illness) probable Monday for Capitals

Washington Capitals forward Marcus Johansson didn't skate Monday morning because of an illness, but he is probable to play against the Arizona Coyotes.

What It Means:

Capitals' coach Barry Trotz explained the situation saying, "We kept him at home. We'll see. We expect him to show up tonight and be ready to go. He just felt a little under the weather this morning. We gave him some meds. We'll see how he is later today." If Johansson is forced to miss Monday's game, Mike Richards will take his place on the third line.

Johansson has 34 points (14 goals, 20 assists) in 50 games played this season, but he has 14 points in 16 games since being asked to center the third line. He has poor possession stats, however, as his Corsi For Percentage is 49.8, and his Relative Corsi For at Even Strength is -1.4. We project Johansson to tally another 15 points (six goals, nine assists) over the remaining course of the season, which would help surpass his career high of 47 points set last season.
