Capitals Lock Up Beauvillier On Two-Year, $5.5 Million Deal

Washington is keeping Anthony Beauvillier in the fold on a short-term extension that gives both sides some stability without handcuffing the future. That $5.5 million tag says the Caps liked what they saw enough to pay for it, but not so much that they lost discipline in the process. In a league where middle-six forwards can vanish into the cap abyss if a team gets careless, this is the kind of move that quietly matters when the roster math gets ugly later.
