Lars Eller is day-to-day with an upper body injury. (Nick Wass/Associated Press)Lars Eller, who is listed as being day-to-day with an upper-body injury, made progress Tuesday when he skated with the Washington Capitals during their practice. That’s probably more accurate.”If Eller can’t play Wednesday, Washington will have to recall a forward, as the team has no healthy extra forwards available because T.J. Oshie is week-to-week with an upper-body injury. “I’ll have someone alert, and we’ll make that decision in the morning,” Trotz said. The Capitals traded two second-round picks to Montreal this summer for Eller, who was projected to be the team’s third-line center.
