Capitals Claim Marco Sturm Off Waivers from Kings

The Washington Capitals announced today that they have claimed left wing Marco Sturm off waivers from the Los Angeles Kings. Sturm, who was acquired by the Kings on December 11 from the Boston Bruins in exchange for future considerations, will be an unrestricted free agent this summer. In 17 games this season with the Kings, he has four goals and five assists for nine points. He never appeared in any games this season with the Bruins. He has missed 45 games altogether this season with two separate knee injuries. Not a bad depth move for the Capitals, as they are getting a speedy forward in Sturm. He is also an excellent stickhandler and good on the power play and penalty kill. For the Kings, the addition of Sturm was a big disappointment, and now that his salary is off their books, they will have some salary cap space to possibly make a significant deal by the trade deadline for a power forward.
