DEFENSEMAN MILAR JURCINA FILES FOR ARBITRATION




Defenseman Milan Jurcina has filed for salary arbitration, according to The Washington Post's Capitals Insider.

Defenseman Milan Jurcina is the only Cap who has filed for salary arbitration, I'm told.

Jurcina led Washington's defensemen in hits (157), the team in blocked shots (131) and raised his level of play in the playoffs. He earned $912,500 last season, the third-lowest salary among the regulars on the blueline.

Jurcina can negotiate an extension with the Caps up until the date of his hearing, which will be held between July 20-Aug. 4 (an exact date will be set soon). The deadline for rulings is Aug. 6.

Defenseman Shaone Morrisonn and forwards Eric Fehr and Boyd Gordon were also eligible for arbitration but did not file. They have until July 15 to accept their qualifying offers.
