FILE - Washington Capitals general manager Brian MacLellan talks to reporters during the team’s NHL hockey training camp Sept. 23, 2021, in Arlington, Va. The Capitals reached a deal to buy CapFriendly, a popular site that has long been a source of NHL salary information and will soon no longer be available to other teams or fans. MacLellan confirmed the agreement in a statement Wednesday, June 12, 2024.
Assistant GM Don Fishman has been an expert in managing the salary cap for several years, helping Washington win the Stanley Cup in 2018 and reach the playoffs 15 times in the past 17 seasons. The Capitals believe this will give them an even bigger boost in navigating the finances of the game. The Capitals were not the only team in conversations with CapFriendly, which started in 2015 as a successor to CapGeek. A message sent to CapFriendly seeking comment on the sale was not immediately returned.
