Evgeny Kunzetsov’s suspension for inappropriate conduct could open the door to the youngest player in Washington Capitals training camp. Kuznetsov will miss the first three games of the regular season, so the Capitals will need to fill a gaping void in the middle of the ice behind centers Nicklas Backstrom and Lars Eller.
