Capitals' Trevor van Riemsdyk: Participating in informal skates

Van Riemsdyk (upper body) was on the ice for Tuesday's informal skate, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.

Van Riemsdyk looks ready for the start of training camp after missing the Capitals' final postseason matchup with the Rangers in April. Despite logging 70 regular-season contests with Washington last year, the veteran blueliner failed to score for the first time since his rookie campaign in 2014-15 when he was with the Blackhawks. Considering van Riemsdyk has reached the 20-point threshold just once in his NHL career, he can probably be passed over in most fantasy formats.
