Overview
- Washington listed the winger as a non-roster player to clear a 23-man spot after Connor McMichael returned from injured reserve.
- If unclaimed, the Capitals can assign Milano to Hershey, which would leave a reported $750,000 cap charge.
- The 29-year-old has four goals and four assists in 31 games this season after frequent healthy scratches and under nine minutes a night.
- His role has shrunk as Anthony Beauvillier, Ethen Frank, and Justin Sourdif moved ahead of him on the depth chart.
- Milano is in the final year of a three-year, $1.9 million AAV contract and is set for unrestricted free agency this summer after last season ended early with a concussion.
