Caps forward Sonny Milano is not on the ice ahead of Washington’s home game against the Dallas Stars on Thursday night.
Update: As per Samantha Pell, Milano has a non-COVID illness.
Washington signed Milano as a free agent in October after Milano suspiciously went unsigned over the summer. In 19 games with the Capitals, Milano has scored three goals and added eight assists.
Nicolas Aube-Kubel appears to be Milano’s placement in the line up. Here are the lines, as reported by Pell:
Ovechkin – Strome – Sheary
Protas – Kuznetsov – Mantha
Johansson – Eller – Oshie
NAK – Dowd – Hathaway
Gustafsson – Carlson
Orlov – Jensen
Irwin – TvR
Lindgren
Excepting sickness, Washington’s injury history this season looks like this:
- Nick Backstrom, Hip

- Beck Malenstyn, Finger
- TJ Oshie, Lower body
