Penguins' Hendrix Lapierre: Inks two-year contract
Lapierre signed a two-year, $2.6 million contract with the Penguins on Friday.
Lapierre produced 16 points over 74 appearances with the Capitals in 2025-26. He was dealt to the Penguins on June 25 as the Capitals needed to shed commitments following their aggressive retooling prior to the draft. The 24-year-old forward will be in contention for bottom-six minutes in 2026-27, but he may not play on an everyday basis.

Penguins' Hendrix Lapierre: Headed for Steel City
Lapierre was traded to the Penguins from the Capitals on Thursday in exchange for a 2027 third-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick.
Lapierre will be a restricted free agent July 1, and Washington already has over $50 million committed to its forward group, which doesn't include a new deal for Alex Ovechkin if he returns. Selected with the 22nd overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft, the 24-year-old Lapierre will likely be viewed as a reclamation project for the Penguins, especially considering he managed just four goals and 12 assists in 74 regular-season games last year. Even with having to give the Quebec native a new contract this summer, it's likely a low-risk move for the Penguins to bet on Lapierre having a career resurgence with a change of venue.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Nets goal Saturday
Lapierre scored a goal in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
Lapierre has a goal and an assist over the last two contests. He opened the scoring at 6:06 of the first period Saturday. The 24-year-old has four goals, 15 points, 51 shots on net, 41 hits, 20 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 69 appearances this season. Lapierre is seeing steady time as the Capitals' fourth-line center, but fantasy managers can likely find better production on the wire in most formats.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: One of each Monday
Lapierre scored a goal and recorded an assist in Monday's 7-3 win over Calgary.
Lapierre put the Capitals on the scoreboard Monday with a goal less than three minutes into regulation before he later picked up a secondary assist in the third. With the pair of points, he is up to three goals, nine assists, 48 shots on net and 37 hits across 60 games this season. While he doesn't have the high-end scoring needed for most fantasy formats, his recent run of three points over his last four games is an encouraging sign for the 24-year-old, fourth-line center moving forward.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Sparks comeback with goal
Lapierre scored a goal and put four shots on net in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Hurricanes.
After the Capitals went down three goals, Lapierre helped start their four-goal rally with a twine finder midway through the second period. Overall, the 23-year-old center is up to two goals, nine points, 41 shots on net and 32 hits through 53 games this season. Despite having his upside capped in a checking-line role, the young center has passed his offensive output of eight points through 27 regular-season games from a year ago, thanks to a trio of points across his last five appearances. Lapierre's recent run of play likely won't warrant him much consideration in standard fantasy leagues. However, he remains an intriguing stash in dynasty leagues if he can continue to find the scoresheet.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Nets rare goal
Lapierre scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Friday's 3-1 win over the Flames.
This was Lapierre's first NHL goal since April 28, 2024 in the playoffs versus the Rangers. His last regular-season goal was March 18, which also came against the Flames. The 23-year-old's development has somewhat stalled out -- he had 22 points in 51 contests in 2023-24, but he has just 15 points over his last 76 outings. This season, he's at a goal, six assists, 37 shots on net, 27 hits and a plus-1 rating in 49 appearances, mainly in a fourth-line role.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Ends slump with helper
Lapierre notched an assist and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Rangers.
Lapierre recently missed two games -- one due to an illness, the other a healthy scratch. That scratch was likely a long time coming, as his assist Tuesday ended an 11-game point drought. The 23-year-old remains in a fourth-line role when he plays, and he's at six helpers, 26 shots on net, 22 hits and a plus-1 rating through 34 appearances, down from eight assists in 27 regular-season games a year ago.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Healthy scratch Saturday
Lapierre will be a healthy scratch Saturday after missing Thursday's game versus Toronto with an illness, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Head coach Spencer Carbery will go with the same lineup as Thursday, when they shut out the Maple Leafs 4-0. Lapierre has five assists, 22 hits and 24 shots on goal over 32 appearances this season. He could return to the lineup Sunday in Detroit.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Late scratch Thursday
Lapierre is a late scratch Thursday versus Toronto due to an illness, according to Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.
Lapierre has five assists, eight PIM, 24 shots and 22 hits in 32 appearances in 2025-26. Bogdan Trineyev is set to draw into the lineup as a member of the fourth line because of Lapierre's absence.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Two-point effort in win
Lapierre picked up two assists in Thursday's 8-4 win over the Canadiens.
The Capitals' fourth line had a productive night, as Lapierre, Ethen Frank and Sonny Milano combined for four goals and eight points. Lapierre snapped a 12-game point drought with his performance, and the 23-year-old center doubled his offensive output on the season -- he has just four assists in 20 games.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Pockets helper in loss
Lapierre notched an assist in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.
The helper was Lapierre's first point in five games this season. The 23-year-old is seeing bottom-six minutes as a center -- while Lapierre's listed on the third line, Nic Dowd's defensive play as the fourth-line center typically leads to more ice time down the middle for the latter. Lapierre should stick in the lineup until Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) is able to return, which could be as soon as Tuesday versus the Kraken.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Signs one-year deal
Lapierre signed a one-year, $850,000 contract with the Capitals on Saturday, per PuckPedia.
Lapierre was a restricted free agent following the conclusion of his entry-level deal. He's yet to fully establish himself at the NHL level, logging 31 points in 84 regular-season games over the last four years. He'll be in contention for a bottom-six role in training camp.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Sent down Sunday
Lapierre was sent down to AHL Hershey on Sunday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Lapierre has appeared in 27 games with the Caps this year, totaling eight assists, though it appears he'll be the odd man out when Lars Eller (illness) returns. Lapierre has been a healthy scratch in two of Washington's last five contests.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Dishes helper
Lapierre tallied an assist while logging 9:59 of ice time during Saturday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
Lapierre's ice time was lowest among the Capitals and does not bode well for his presence in the lineup once Lars Eller (illness) is healthy enough to return. The 22-year-old is still searching for his first goal of the season and has tallied a modest eight points in 27 games.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Nabs assist on home ice
Lapierre recorded an even-strength assist in Friday's 3-1 win over Carolina.
Lapierre generated the primary assist on Jakub Vrana's second-period marker to put Washington up 2-0. The helper snapped a six-game point slump for Lapierre, but he's yet to find the back of the net this season. The 22-year-old's 6:04 of ice time was a team-low, so he'll need to work on gaining the trust of head coach Spencer Carberry in order to carve out a larger role. Lapierre has logged seven helpers, four PIM, 17 shots, 12 blocks, nine hits and a minus-4 rating through 25 appearances.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Adds assist Saturday
Lapierre registered an assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Devils.
Lapierre has turned things around with four helpers over his last six games. He's played regularly since Alex Ovechkin (fibula) was hurt, at the expense of Jakub Vrana, and it looks like steady playing time is paying off. Lapierre is still stuck in a bottom-six role with minimal power-play usage. He has six helpers, 17 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 18 appearances, so he'll still need to take a couple of steps up on offense to be considered in fantasy.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Supplies helper Saturday
Lapierre managed an assist in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Devils.
Lapierre assisted on a Matt Roy goal in the first period. The Capitals have played 11 times in November, and Lapierre has been a scratch four times, so it doesn't look like he has the full trust of head coach Spencer Carbery. He was in the lineup over winger Jakub Vrana in Saturday's game -- part of the issue with Lapierre's play in 2024-25 has been his 35.8 percent win rate at the faceoff dot, but he won't be needed as a center following the Capitals' trade for Lars Eller. Lapierre has three assists, 13 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 14 appearances, and his path to more playing time may come as a middle-six winger.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Gathers assist in loss
Lapierre logged an assist in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Penguins.
Lapierre has two helpers over four games since he was a scratch for two contests. The 22-year-old is stuck in a third-line role, and that's unlikely to allow him to put up steady offense over long stretches. Those two assists are all he's put up for points so far, and he's added 11 shots on net, nine blocked shots, five hits, four PIM and a minus-4 rating over 11 appearances. Lapierre can be ignored in redraft formats for now, but dynasty managers should hold on with patience.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Records helper Saturday
Lapierre notched an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
Lapierre returned from a two-game stint as a healthy scratch, replacing Michael Sgarbossa in the lineup. The helper was Lapierre's first point in eight outings this season. The 22-year-old has added six shots on net, seven blocked shots, four hits, four PIM and a minus-5 rating. He's unlikely to see much more than bottom-six minutes as the Capitals have found success with their top-six combinations early on.

Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Losing playing time
Lapierre was scratched for the second game in a row when he sat out Thursday's 6-3 win over the Canadiens.
Lapierre won a middle-six job out of training camp, but he went minus-5 with no points over his first seven games of the season. He took four PIM in Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Lightning and has since been scratched for two contests in a row, with Michael Sgarbossa taking his place in the lineup. Lapierre should get another look eventually, but he'll need to make some sort of positive impact when he draws back in to avoid being rotated out of the lineup on a regular basis. He had 22 points in 51 regular-season outings in 2023-24, so this slow start is a bit disappointing.
