"Stevenson joins the team for the last leg of their six-game road trip in Detroit against the Red Wings. His arrival is likely on an emergency loan basis as the Capitals were already carrying a full complement of 23 active players. According to the Washington Post's Bailey Johnson, Stevenson and Charlie Lindgren were the only goaltenders on the ice for the team's morning skate. Logan Thompson was absent after giving up five goals to the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday night."
"Stevenson, 26, has an 11-8-3 record with a 2.57 goals-against average and a .912 save percentage in 24 games with Hershey this season. The 6'5", 196-pound goaltender ranks seventh in the AHL in saves and tied for ninth in save percentage and games played. In his last start on Jan. 28 at Rochester, Stevenson stopped 27 of 28 shots faced in a 3-1 Bears win."
The Washington Capitals recalled goaltender Clay Stevenson from the Hershey Bears ahead of a road game in Detroit, likely on an emergency loan while the club carried 23 active players. Stevenson and Charlie Lindgren were the only goaltenders on the ice for the morning skate, while Logan Thompson was absent after surrendering five goals in the previous game. Stevenson is 11-8-3 with a 2.57 goals-against average and a .912 save percentage in 24 AHL games, and he stopped 27 of 28 shots in his most recent start. Hershey recalled Mitch Gibson from the ECHL to fill the roster hole.
