T.J. Oshie Will Return to the Lineup Tonight

Good news from this morning’s optional skate at Kettler Capitals Iceplex. It sounds like T.J. Oshie will make his return to the lineup after sitting out the last four games.

Oshie was asked about his status following this morning’s optional skate.

Oshie says he's in unless something bad happens to him on the way home.
