## Resource

Washington Capitals hit the ground running in the draft with a laser-focused strategy: build center depth. They landed Oliver Suvanto, a Finnish phenom and top center prospect, at 18th overall, who’s already showing Anton Lundell-level upside. They also snagged Tyus Sparks (101st) — a high-energy transition specialist from Idaho making draft history — and added Logan Stuart (208th) and defenseman Brian McFadden (125th) as future assets. With limited picks, the Capitals made every move count, prioritizing immediate center help while laying groundwork for the long term.
