The Washington Capitals are counting heavily on highly-touted center Marcus Johansson this season, but they may have to wait to see him showcase his skills for a while. Johansson suffered a foot injury blocking a shot in the team's 3-2 win over the Ottawa Senators last night, and coach Bruce Boudreau said he won't play this weekend, according to CSN's Corey Masisak.
Boudreau described Johansson's status as "week to week," according to Katie Carrera of the Washington Post, but did not say the foot was broken. Boudreau also indicated the team would not call anyone up to replace Johansson on the roster just yet.
