Capitals' Zachary Sanford: Set for third-line duty Saturday

Sanford will be in the lineup Saturday night against the Rangers, skating on the third line in place of Brett Connolly, Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

A product of Boston College, Sanford has drawn into two games this season for the Caps, failing to record any points but adding a minor penalty. Various scouts suggest the 21-year-old is very much a work in progress, though Sanford's offensive talent was evident at the collegiate level, as he sank 13 goals to complement 26 helpers in only 41 games last campaign.
