| Feb. 23, 2026 | Bjorklund was loaned to AHL Hershey on Monday. - Washington activated Charlie Lindgren (lower body) from injured reserve in a corresponding move. Bjorklund has posted a 4-5-3 record with a 3.47 GAA and an .881 save percentage in 12 AHL appearances this season. He has also gone 4-2-0 with a 2.37 GAA and a .929 save percentage in seven outings for ECHL South Carolina during the 2025-26 campaign. | None |
| Feb. 10, 2026 | Bjorklund was recalled from AHL Hershey on Tuesday. - Clay Stevenson was loaned to Hershey in a corresponding transaction. Bjorklund is now the No. 2 goaltender on Washington's roster behind Logan Thompson, as Charlie Lindgren is currently on injured reserve due to a lower-body injury. The 23-year-old Bjorklund has yet to appear in an NHL game. | None |
| Feb. 5, 2026 | Bjorklund was sent down to AHL Hershey on Thursday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports. - The Capitals activated Logan Thompson (upper body) from injured reserve in a corresponding move. Bjorklund was the backup goaltender in all three games since his recall Jan. 31. He was 4-5-2 with a 3.43 GAA and an .879 save percentage across 11 AHL appearances before his recall. | None |
| Jan. 31, 2026 | Bjorklund was recalled from AHL Hershey on Saturday. - Washington placed Charlie Lindgren (lower body) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. With Logan Thompson (upper body) also dealing with an injury, Bjorklund or Clay Stevenson could start Saturday's home game against Carolina. | None |
| Dec. 13, 2025 | Bjorklund was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Saturday, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News. - Bjorklund hasn't made his NHL debut yet after being the backup goalie behind Logan Thompson in Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to Carolina. The 23-year-old Bjorklund has a 3.01 GAA and an .895 save percentage in nine outings with Hershey this season. Charlie Lindgren (upper body) was activated off injured reserve in a corresponding move. | None |
| Dec. 8, 2025 | Bjorklund was recalled from AHL Hershey on Monday. - Bjorklund will likely be a stand-in for Clay Stevenson, who was sent down in a corresponding move and will likely suit up for AHL Hershey on Wednesday. Still, it will be some valuable practice time at the NHL level for the 23-year-old Bjorklund. With the Bears this season, Bjorklund is 4-4-1 with an .895 save percentage and one shutout in nine appearances. | None |
| Nov. 1, 2025 | Bjorklund posted a 25-save shutout in AHL Hershey's 2-0 win over Providence on Saturday. - Bjorklund earned his first AHL shutout in just his sixth game at the level. He's allowed just seven goals on 101 shots to begin 2025-26, going 3-0-1 in four contests. Clay Stevenson is the presumed starter for Hershey and the first in line for a call-up should the Capitals need one, but Bjorklund is just 23 years old and looks to be developing into a decent prospect in his own right. | None |
| June 2, 2025 | Bjorklund signed a one-year, two-way contract with Washington on Monday. - Bjorklund posted a 21-4-3 record with a 2.02 GAA and a .927 save percentage in 29 regular-season appearances with ECHL South Carolina in 2024-25. He also went 2-0-0 with a 1.49 GAA and a .942 save percentage in two outings with AHL Hershey during the 2024-25 regular season. The 23-year-old netminder doesn't have any NHL experience yet, and he'll likely spend most of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors. | None |
| April 29, 2022 | Bjorklund signed a three-year, entry level contract with the Capitals on Friday. - Washington's still searching for a franchise goalie, as Ilya Samsonov doesn't appear capable of claiming that mantle. Perhaps Bjorklund -- whom the Capitals selected in the sixth round of the 2020 NHL Entry Draft -- could become that guy eventually, but the 19-year-old netminder will need some seasoning in the AHL first. | None |
