"📸: RMNB Forward Bogdan Trineyev and goaltender Garin Bjorklund have been called up from the Hershey Bears. The Washington Capitals announced the move less than 90 minutes before puck drop against the Carolina Hurricanes. Trineyev was held out of Hershey's game against the Rochester Americans on Friday while Bjorklund backed up Mitch Gibson who was recalled from ECHL South Carolina. Trineyev, a first-line forward for the Bears who plays in all situations, will replace Connor McMichael on the roster."
"Bjorklund, Hershey's second-string goaltender, was given the promotion after Charlie Lindgren suffered what appeared to be a lower-body injury against the Detroit Red Wings at the end of overtime on Thursday. Lindgren stayed in the game for the victorious shootout - he made no saves - and was carried off the ice by his teammates. Saturday, the Capitals placed Lindgren on injured reserve."
Bogdan Trineyev and goaltender Garin Bjorklund were recalled from the Hershey Bears to the Washington Capitals less than 90 minutes before puck drop against the Carolina Hurricanes. Trineyev will replace Connor McMichael, who was placed on injured reserve and is expected to be out week-to-week with an upper-body injury. Bjorklund was promoted after Charlie Lindgren suffered a lower-body injury and was subsequently placed on injured reserve. Clay Stevenson is already with the Capitals, covering for Logan Thompson's upper-body injury. Trineyev has 21 points (9g, 12a) in 32 AHL games and has appeared in two NHL games this season.
