Capitals Recall Ivan Miroshnichenko

February 26, 2024 at 9:27 am CDT | by Josh Erickson Leave a Comment

The Capitals have recalled winger Ivan Miroshnichenko ahead of tonight’s game against the Senators, per a statement from GM Brian MacLellan. Miroshnichenko could play instead of winger Anthony Mantha, who departed Saturday’s game against the Panthers with an undisclosed injury. However, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports that Mantha is wearing a normal jersey at this morning’s practice.

Miroshnichenko, 20, was the 20th overall selection in the 2022 draft out of the KHL’s Avangard Omsk organization. The 6-foot-1 sniper signed his entry-level contract last May after beating Hodgkin’s lymphoma during the latter half of his draft year and has gotten his first taste of North American hockey this season. He has nine goals, 16 assists and 25 points with a +15 rating through 47 games with the AHL-best Hershey Bears. He made his NHL debut as part of a four-game stint on the roster in late December, recording a -3 rating and six shots on goal while averaging 10:23 per game.

It’s clear he’s not quite ready for a full-time NHL role, but he’s trending nicely in his first pro season this side of the Atlantic. He has a goal and three assists in his last 10 outings for Hershey.

Dobber Prospects has Miroshnichenko ranked as the fourth-best prospect in Washington’s system, slightly behind Boston College star winger Ryan Leonard, burgeoning full-time center Connor McMichael, and high-ceiling 2023 draft pick Andrew Cristall.

The Capitals’ 23-man roster is full, so a corresponding transaction is necessary to recall Miroshnichenko. T.J. Oshie is listed as out with a lower-body injury sustained Feb. 22 against the Lightning with no timeline for a return but remains on the active roster, so he’ll likely be designated for injured reserve to create a roster spot.
