Washington Capitals GM George McPhee said he “expects” Bruce Boudreau to be back next season.

The Caps don’t have a lot of cap space available for next season, 18 players at almost $51 million. Brooks Laich and Jason Arnott are UFA’s. Laich made $2.4 million last year and could be in demand if he hits the open market.

Prospect Evgeny Kuznetsov could challenge for a roster spot if he decides to leave Russia, “We have lots to talk about over the summer,” McPhee said. “(Kuznetsov) may want to play another year, and if he feels he needs another year in Russia, he can do it. If he feels he’s ready to play here, we can talk about that, too.”

Semyon Varlamov is a RFA, he made $1.15 million, and his Russian agent said he could consider signing in the KHL.
