Date News Advice
April 3, 2024 Sgarbossa tallied an assist and two shots during Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Sabres. - Sgarbossa has points in consecutive games and has tied his career high of seven points from the 2016-17 season. The 31-year-old is likely to remain with the Capitals for the balance of the campaign given he is no longer eligible to suit up for AHL Hershey's upcoming playoff run, but he may struggle to see regular ice time once Tom Wilson (suspension) and T.J. Oshie (upper body) return. None
March 10, 2024 Sgarbossa tallied a goal while logging 10:08 of ice time during Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks. - Sgarbossa has three goals and five points in 15 games since being recalled to fill the void while Evgeny Kuznetsov was in the league's Player Assistance Program. With the latter having since been traded to Carolina, the 31-year-old could get an extended look as the Capitals chase down a playoff spot, but he could struggle to find regular ice time once Nic Dowd (upper body) returns from the injured list. None
Feb. 21, 2024 Sgarboss tallied a goal and added four shots during Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Devils. - Sgarbossa tallied his first goal and second point in seven games since his recall to fill the void left by Evgeny Kuznetsov (personal). The 31-year-old could get challenged for ice time by some of the younger talent in AHL Hershey and therefore has limited upside as a fantasy play. None
Feb. 5, 2024 Sgarbossa was recalled from AHL Hershey on Monday. - Sgarbossa has notched seven goals and 36 assists in 44 AHL contests this campaign. He picked up two goals and two assists with the Capitals in 10 appearances during the 2021-22 campaign, which is his most recent NHL action. None
Dec. 22, 2023 Sgarbossa was returned to AHL Hershey on Friday, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News. - Sgarbossa was summoned by Washington on Thursday but ended up being a healthy scratch in that evening's 3-2 overtime win over Columbus. At the AHL level, he has five goals and 28 points in 28 contests with Hershey. None
Dec. 21, 2023 Sgarbossa was called up from AHL Hershey on Thursday. - Sgarbossa has five goals and 28 points in 28 contests with Hershey this season. The 31-year-old hasn't played at the top level this year, though he does have four goals and 16 points in 65 career NHL games. None
Nov. 9, 2023 Sgarbossa was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Thursday. - Sgarbossa was called up Wednesday but was a healthy scratch for that evening's game versus Florida. The 31-year-old has three goals and 12 points in 11 contests with Hershey this season. None
Nov. 8, 2023 Sgarbossa was called up by Washington on Wednesday. - If Evgeny Kuznetsov (illness) ends up not being an option Wednesday versus Florida, then Sgarbossa might draw into the lineup. Although Sgarbossa has seen success with AHL Hershey this season -- three goals and 12 points through 11 contests -- the 31-year-old will likely serve in a bottom-six role with the Capitals if he plays at all. None
Oct. 6, 2023 Sgarbossa was placed on waivers by Washington on Friday. - Sgarbossa had 21 goals and 58 points in 60 outings with AHL Hershey last season. Unless he's claimed off waivers, Sgarbossa is expected to start the 2023-24 campaign back with Hershey. None

Sept. 30, 2022 Sgarbossa was placed on waivers Friday, according to CapFriendly. - Sgarbossa scored four points in 10 appearances with Washington last season. Assuming he goes unclaimed, the veteran forward should spend most of the 2022-23 campaign with AHL Hershey but he'll likely earn an NHL promotion as an injury replacement at some point. None
Jan. 27, 2022 Sgarbossa was demoted from the taxi squad to AHL Hershey on Thursday. - Sgarbossa hasn't played since Jan. 8 versus Minnesota, so he'll head to the minors for some much-needed playing time. The 29-year-old winger has tallied four points through 10 top-level appearances this season, so he could be back with the big club sooner rather than later. None
Jan. 19, 2022 Sgarbossa was assigned to the taxi squad Wednesday, per CapFriendly. - Sgarbossa has not played in the Capitals' last four games, instead serving as a healthy scratch. He'll move to the taxi squad to make room for defensemen Michal Kempny. None

Jan. 2, 2022 Sgarbossa was promoted from the taxi squad for Sunday's tilt with the Devils. - Sgarbossa has three points in seven NHL games this season, including a two-point performance on Dec. 17 against Winnipeg. He'll draw back into Sunday's lineup, likely in a bottom-six role. None
Dec. 28, 2021 Sgarbossa was placed on waivers by the Capitals on Tuesday. - Sgarbossa is headed either to the taxi squad or AHL Hershey should he pass through waivers unclaimed. The 29-year-old forward has two goals and three points in seven games with the Capitals this season. None
Dec. 20, 2021 Sgarbossa (COVID-19 protocols) was cleared to rejoin team activities Monday, Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic reports. - El-Bashir goes on to note that Sgarbossa had a false positive that caused him to miss Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Kings.

These were Sgarbossa's first two points since his season debut Nov. 24 versus the Canadiens. The 29-year-old has two goals, one assist, eight shots on net and a plus-1 rating in seven contests overall. None
Nov. 25, 2021 Sgarbossa tallied a goal and two shots during Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Canadiens. - Sgarbossa was recalled in the face of a worsening injury situation to Washington's forward ranks and paid immediate dividends. The 29-year-old has been a solid depth player for the organization but is likely headed back to the minors once Conor Sheary (lower body), Lars Eller (COVID-19 protocols), or T.J. Oshie (lower body) return to the lineup and therefore has very limited fantasy value in the short term. None
Nov. 24, 2021 Sgarbossa was called up by Washington on Wednesday, Samantha Pell of The Washington Post reports. - Sgarbossa provides insurance for the Capitals in case Conor Sheary (lower body) is unable to return for Wednesday's match against the Canadiens.
