Capitals Recall Ivan Miroshnichenko, Move Alex Ovechkin To IR

Yesterday at 11:09 AM

The Capitals have recalled 2022 first-round pick Ivan Miroshnichenko from AHL Hershey, per a team announcement. They had a full active roster, so captain Alex Ovechkin heads to injured reserve in a corresponding move after being ruled out yesterday on a week-to-week basis with a lower leg injury. Winger Sonny Milano, who’s out indefinitely with an upper-body injury, also shifted from IR to LTIR to give the Caps some additional space in their LTIR pool.

More to come…
