The Pittsburgh Penguins are off to a miserable start to the 2024 season. They have 15 points out of 18 games heading into Thursday’s action and have already made a trade. Lars Eller was dealt from Pittsburgh to the Washington Capitals and Elliotte Friedman reports that more are coming.

Eller, a member of the Capitals’ Stanley Cup winners in 2018, returns after being traded to Colorado in March 2023.

The Washington Capitals have reunited with veteran center Lars Eller. Washington has sent a 2025 fifth-round pick and a 2027 third-round pick to Pittsburgh for Eller, who spent seven seasons with the Capitals and helped the club win the franchise’s first Stanley Cup in 2018.
