News broke earlier that Washington Capitals forward Jason Arnott plans to test free agency. He's not the only one.
Via Russian Machine Never Breaks' Chris Gordon, forward and unrestricted free agent Matt Bradley has not received a contract offer from the team and probably won't:
"They indicated a number of months ago that there would be an offer for him in eight to ten days and there's been no offer and we're not expecting one," [Bradley's agent Larry] Kelly told RMNB. "I think Matt's a very, very valuable hockey player and I think he'll do fine in free agency."
Bradley just finished the final year of a three-year contract that paid him $1 million per season. Since joining the Caps in 2005, Bradley has scored 37 goals in 427 games. Bradley spent his time on the fourth line and became a fan favorite.
With the news today that the Caps bought out the remainder of Tyler Sloan's contract, the Caps now have about $9.369 million in salary cap space without factoring in the space cleared if Bradley does not return.
