    Milano (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus the Red Wings, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

  • Capitals' Sonny Milano: Won't return Sunday

    Milano (upper body) won't return to Sunday's game against the Jets.

    It would be a tough blow for the Caps if Milano is forced to miss additional time -- the 27-year-old winger recorded a hat trick against the Hurricanes in his previous outing, giving him nine goals and 12 points in his last 15 contests. Overall, Milano has 20 points (13 goals, seven assists) this season. Michael Sgarbossa would likely be the next man up if Milano isn't ready to play Tuesday against the Red Wings.

  • Capitals' Sonny Milano: First career hat trick Friday

    Milano scored three goals, one on the power play, in Friday's 7-6 shootout win over the Hurricanes.

    The 27-year-old winger produced his first career hat trick by scoring a goal in each period and flashing some incredible stickwork on two of them. Milano has just 13 goals and 20 points in 38 games on the season, but he's caught fire in March, erupting for seven goals and nine points in 11 contests. He needs only two more tallies to set a new career high.

  • Capitals' Sonny Milano: Lights lamp Saturday

    Milano tallied a goal and blocked two shots during Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Panthers.

    Milano has tallied three points in four games since returning from an upper-body injury that sidelined him for the better part of two months. The 27-year-old could see an increased role if the Capitals move out pending free agents ahead of the trade deadline, so fantasy managers should keep an eye on him in the home stretch of the season.

  • Capitals' Sonny Milano: Goal in return

    Milano scored a goal on his lone shot in Saturday's 4-3 win over Montreal.

    After missing Washington's last 27 games with an upper-body injury, Milano made an impact in his return to the lineup, deflecting a Max Pacioretty shot past Jake Allen to put the Caps ahead 3-2 early in the third period. The 27-year-old Milano has five goals and nine points in 24 games this season. He'll likely continue to skate in a middle-six role going forward.

  • Capitals' Sonny Milano: Closing in on return

    Milano (upper body) could return to action Saturday against the Canadiens, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

    Milano has missed the last 27 games due to an upper-body injury, but it appears his absence may finally be coming to an end. The 27-year-old winger has picked up just eight points while averaging 12:12 of ice time through 23 contests this campaign, so don't expect him to be a useful fantasy option upon his return.

    Milano has been out for nearly two months, but he appears to be nearing a return after being cleared for contact.

  • Capitals' Sonny Milano: Heads to IR

    Milano (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.

    Milano only has one goal in his last nine games, so perhaps his upper-body injury is something that has been nagging him. Joe Snively has been recalled from AHL Hershey and will be in the mix with Matthew Phillips for added playing time in the interim.

  • Capitals' Sonny Milano: Sitting out Thursday

    Milano will be a healthy scratch Thursday against the Stars, Ben Raby of WTOP News reports.

    Milano, who has no points and just four shots in his last seven games, will make way for Evgeny Kuznetsov when the Capitals host the Stars. The 27-year-old Milano was enjoying a good start to the season before the Thanksgiving holiday with seven points in his first 14 games, but he will need to rekindle his scoring touch to warrant a regular spot in the lineup.
