Senators' Lars Eller: Playing Saturday
Eller (abdomen) will suit up for Saturday's preseason game versus the Canadiens, Stu Cowan of The Montreal Gazette reports.
Eller has been brought along slowly in training camp while recovering from abdominal surgery. He was targeting Saturday for his return and will be available for the beginning of the regular season.. However, it's unclear if the 36-year-old will be an everyday option for the Senators this campaign, especially after missing so much of camp, but he should contend for bottom-six minutes.

Head coach Travis Green said Thursday that he hopes Eller (abdomen) will be able to suit up in Saturday's preseason finale against the Canadiens, Claire Hanna of TSN reports.
Eller has already been ruled out for Thursday's preseason matchup against the Blues, but he could have an opportunity to suit up for the Senators ahead of the regular season. Eller has spent training camp recovering from minor abdominal surgery, but he's been trending in the right direction and appears to be in the mix to be available for the start of the regular season.

Senators' Lars Eller: Nearing 100 percent
Eller (abdomen) told reporters Wednesday that he is no longer in pain and is close to 100 percent, Julian McKenzie of The Athletic reports.
Eller noted that he is a little behind the team in general in terms of playing readiness. It's still possible the 36-year-old center will be able to be ready for the start of the regular season. Eller underwent the surgery prior to training camp at an unspecified time to address an injury he sustained last November.

Senators' Lars Eller: Undergoes minor abdominal surgery
Eller isn't available for the start of training camp after undergoing a minor abdominal surgery, per Julian McKenzie of The Athletic.
No timetable was provided, but if Eller is recovering from surgery, then it wouldn't be surprising if he misses some preseason action. He had 10 goals and 22 points in 80 regular-season appearances between Pittsburgh and Washington.

Senators' Lars Eller: Secures one-year deal
Eller landed a one-year, $1.25 million contract from Ottawa on Tuesday.
Eller started the 2024-25 campaign with the Penguins before being traded back to the Capitals. Overall, the veteran center played in 80 regular-season contests while racking up 10 goals and 12 helpers. The Senators have decent center depth, which means Eller could find himself filling a fourth-line role unless the team opts to move Dylan Cozens or Shane Pinto to the wing.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Serves up helper in loss
Eller notched an assist and two PIM in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Canadiens in Game 3.
Eller snapped a 12-game point drought with the assist. He went minus-8 with 17 shots on net and 18 hits in that span. The third-line center had 22 points, 104 shots on net, 57 hits, 35 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 80 regular-season games between the Capitals and Penguins in 2024-25, so he offers little upside in fantasy.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Chips in with assist
Eller logged an assist in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Wild.
Eller has three assists over 13 outings in March. The 35-year-old remains in a bottom-six role, and while he's on the third line, Nic Dowd often gets more ice time as a shutdown center. Eller has produced 22 points, 89 shots on net, 46 hits, 32 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 70 appearances between the Capitals and Penguins this season.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Ends drought Saturday
Eller produced two assists in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.
He had a hand in an Aliaksei Protas tally in the first period and a Trevor van Riemsdyk goal in the third. Eller snapped a 12-game point drought with the performance, and the veteran center has 10 goals and 21 points in 65 appearances on the season.

Capitals' Lars Eller: High shot volume in victory
Eller recorded five shots on goal and blocked a shot, but he held a minus-1 rating in Monday's 5-4 shootout victory against the Senators.
Since scoring goals in back-to-back games in early February, Eller has not recorded a point and has a minus-2 rating on a Capitals team that leads the Eastern Conference. It's certainly encouraging that after Monday's performance, the 35-year-old has 10 shots on goal in his last five games. However, when you factor in the fact that Eller is on pace to average his lowest ice time since his rookie season, the upside is very limited.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Ties game in third period
Eller scored a goal and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Flyers.
Eller has scored in back-to-back games for the first time this season. He netted the equalizer at 6:23 of the third period, tying the game at 3-3. Eller has four points over his last eight contests and a total of 10 goals, 19 points, 67 shots on net, 38 hits, 26 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 52 appearances between the Capitals and the Penguins this season.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Deals assist in win
Eller recorded an assist in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Flames.
Eller set up Aliaksei Protas' breakaway tally in the third period. It's been an acceptable month for Eller, who has two goals and two assists over 13 appearances in January while filling his usual third-line role. The center is at 17 points, 63 shots on net, 37 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 48 appearances between the Capitals and the Penguins this season.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Nabs helper Tuesday
Eller recorded an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Oilers.
Eller had a shot attempt ping off the post but straight to Pierre-Luc Dubois, who made no mistake on the second attempt. The helper ended Eller's four-game slump. The 35-year-old center has struggled to put up consistent offense, but that's not unusual for a depth player who tends to focus more on defense. Overall, Eller has 16 points, 58 shots on net, 37 hits and a minus-4 rating over 45 contests between the Capitals and the Penguins this season.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Scores in loss
Eller scored a goal on one shot and had one hit in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to Montreal.
Eller knotted the game at 2-2 early in the third period, beating rookie netminder Jakub Dobes to the glove side. It was his fourth goal since joining the Capitals in mid-November and just his second tally in the last 17 outings. The 35-year-old center, who entered Friday averaging 12:49 TOI per game with the Capitals, does not get as many shifts as he did with the Penguins (16:25 per game).

Capitals' Lars Eller: Tallies in chaotic win
Eller scored a goal in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers.
Eller picked up his first point in four games since he returned from an illness that cost him four contests. He played at right wing rather than center amid a middle-six shuffle that also saw Connor McMichael land on the third line. Eller is up to 14 points, 52 shots on net, 30 hits, 18 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 37 appearances between the Capitals and the Penguins this season. Barring a significant number of injuries, he's unlikely to play above the third line.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Activated from IR
Eller (illness) was removed from injured reserve Sunday, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.
Washington assigned Hendrix Lapierre to AHL Hershey in a corresponding move. Eller will likely return to a bottom-six role against Detroit on Sunday after missing the last four games. He has six goals, 13 points, 47 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and 27 hits across 33 appearances between Washington and Pittsburgh this season.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Set to miss time with illness
Eller was placed on injured reserve Friday, retroactive to Dec. 17, due to an illness, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
Head coach Spencer Carbery said that Eller saw a doctor Thursday who revealed that the 35-year-old is dealing with an illness that will force him to miss some time. Eller will be sidelined for the Capitals' final three games before the league's Christmas break, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to return before the end of the calendar year. Over 33 appearances between Pittsburgh and Washington this year, Eller has totaled six goals, seven assists, 27 hits and 20 PIM while averaging 14:56 of ice time.

Capitals' Lars Eller: Supplies helper in loss
Eller notched an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Blackhawks.
Eller ended a six-game point drought with the helper. While he hasn't been big on offense since returning to the Capitals, he remains a steady third-line center for the team. His scoring rate is virtually identical to how he started the year with the Penguins. Eller has a total of 13 points through 33 contests, and he's added 47 shots on net, 27 hits, 14 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a minus-4 rating. The big difference has been in ice time -- Eller's at 13:21 per game with the Capitals compared to 16:25 per outing with the Penguins, but he's been able to sustain his offense thanks to a stronger supporting cast.
