The Washington Capitals have sent Dmitry Orlov to Hershey of the AHL.
Orlov did not have to pass through waivers and that did not help his cause. The defenseman was the Capitals second round pick in 2009. He played 60 games in the NHL in the 2011-12 season but spent time in the minors during the lockout and ended up suffering an upper body injury when the lockout ended, wrecking his season as he only played five games in the NHL. The Capitals are still high on Orlov so expect to see him up in the not-too-distant future.
