Washington Capitals left wing Sonny Milano (upper body) will not play against Pittsburgh on Friday. After being a healthy scratch for an extended period, Milano has played in back-to-back games. However, he will now be sidelined due to an upper-body injury. Milano was a replacement for Jakub Vrana in the lineup, and the Czech winger will rejoin the action versus the Penguins. Vrana has been fairly productive in a limited role, producing four points (two goals, two assists) in nine games despite averaging barely over 10 minutes of ice time. He will roll with the third line on Friday.
Washington Capitals left wing Sonny Milano (undisclosed) will play against the Rangers in Game 3 on Friday. He's good to go despite skipping Thursday's practice session. Milano had a decent regular season with 15 goals and 23 points in 49 contests, but he's been quiet in the playoffs. Through the first two games of the series, Milano is without a point and boasts only one shot on goal with a minus-two rating across 11:33 of average ice time.
Washington Capitals winger Sonny Milano (undisclosed) missed practice on Thursday ahead of Friday's Game 3 against the Rangers. He was reportedly absent for maintenance purposes after averaging 11:33 of ice time across the first two games in the series. Milano has mustered only one shot on goal against the Rangers and hasn't picked up any points while skating on the third line with Max Pacioretty and Hendrix Lapierre. Michael Sgarbossa was on the line during Thursday's practice and could make his Stanley Cup Playoffs debut if Milano isn't available on Friday. Sgarbossa had four goals and seven points in 25 games with the Capitals during the regular season.
Washington Capitals forward Sonny Milano (upper body) will return to the lineup on Saturday to take on the visiting Boston Bruins. Milano has missed the past two games due to an upper-body injury but participated in an optional skate on Saturday morning. "He's good to go," head coach Spencer Carbery said on Saturday. The 27-year-old will skate on a line with Max Pacioretty and Hendrix Lapierre. "That's a good option for us," Carbery said. "That's the way that we'll start. We'll look at some other things, but him coming in gives us a bit of a different look and we can go back to some things that were working for us 5-on-5." Milano has tallied 13 goals and 20 points in 39 games on the season.
Nick Jensen, Sonny Milano To Return For Capitals Friday
Washington Capitals defenseman Nick Jensen (lower body) and forward Sonny Milano (illness) will both return to the lineup for Friday's game against the visiting Philadelphia Flyers. Jensen has missed the past two contests due to a lower-body injury suffered in a loss to the Panthers on Saturday. He is without a goal with eight assists and 85 blocked shots across 56 games on the season, averaging 19:15 of ice time per game. Milano has also missed the past two games due to an illness. The 27-year-old has chipped in six goals and 11 points with 22 shots on goal across 27 games. He has averaged just 12:12 of ice time per game in a bottom-six role. Gritty winger Tom Wilson will also play on Friday after missing Thursday's practice due to personal reasons.
Washington Capitals left wing Sonny Milano (upper body) has come off Injured Reserve ahead of Saturday's contest against Montreal and is expected to make his first appearance since Dec. 10. Milano picked up four goals and four assists in 23 games before getting knocked out of the lineup. He will rejoin the action as a third-line piece, skating next to Mike Sgarbossa and Max Pacioretty. Milano makes his comeback against a team that allows the fifth-most goals in the league (3.52).
Washington Capitals left wing Sonny Milano was forced to miss Sunday's game against San Jose because of an illness. He missed practice with the illness bug on Saturday and didn't recover quickly enough to be on the ice on Sunday. The 27-year-old scored his first goal of the season a couple of games ago and has also bagged one assist in seven outings. It hasn't quite happened yet for Milano despite him logging regular minutes alongside elite playmaker Evgeny Kuznetsov. Following Sunday's action, the Capitals will be off until Thursday, so it's likely Milano's absence will be limited to only one game.
Washington Capitals winger Sonny Milano has been ruled out for at least a week with an upper-body injury. The 26-year-old is forced to skip Saturday's contest against Pittsburgh and will be unavailable for a few more games after that. Milano has had a decent campaign in Washington, notching 11 goals and 32 points in 58 games. He's been averaging only around 13 minutes of ice time, so the former first-round pick has made very good use of his playing time. Anthony Mantha and Conor Sheary are in line to replace Milano on the second line.
Washington Capitals winger Sonny Milano (illness) is available for selection again and will return to the lineup Friday against St. Louis. He was forced to sit out two games with a non-COVID illness. The 26-year-old has shown off good form in his most recent outings, notching six points in seven games. In 54 games over the course of the entire season, Milano has posted 10 goals and 29 points. Anthony Mantha will come out of the lineup Friday to accommodate Milano.
Sonny Milano Continues Great Play With Three More Assists
Anaheim Ducks left-winger Sonny Milano continued his excellent form on Wednesday night versus the Vegas Golden Knights. Milano, along with Trevor Zegras, assisted on three Anaheim goals during a 6-5 win. The winger's shifty nature and quick thinking proved troublesome for Vegas to contain. Milano had just one shot and one takeaway but generated several scoring chances over the final 40 minutes on Wednesday. Quietly, the forward now has 11 assists and 16 points in 19 games. Milano is quite the fantasy asset who is still widely available in all formats.
Sonny Milano Records A Pair Of Power-Play Goals Wednesday
Anaheim Ducks winger Sonny Milano scored the team's only goals in Wednesday's 5-2 defeat to Colorado, bagging both goals on the power play. He had four shots in total and recorded one hit in just a little under 12 minutes of action. Milano doesn't play much on a nightly basis, but that hasn't kept him from racking up eight points in his last nine appearances. The 25-year-old skates on the second line with Trevor Zegras and Rickard Rakell, who's returned from injury with points in back-to-back games. All the talk has been about Anaheim's top line lately, but the second line is productive as well. Zegras has collected seven points in five games.
Sonny Milano Joins Top Six With Max Comtois Scratched
Anaheim Ducks left wing Sonny Milano will make his season debut as a top-six forward in Thursday's clash with Winnipeg. The 25-year-old takes over from Max Comtois, who will be a healthy scratch for the night. Milano skated in six games and went pointless for the Ducks last season. He's recorded 22 goals and 47 points in 131 career games, so fantasy managers don't really have anything to get excited for here. Comtois is among Anaheim's most talented forwards, but he's had a rough start to the year with no points in four games and a minus-five rating. Sitting out might help him reset and kick into gear when head coach Dallas Eakins is ready to use him again.
