Dmitry Orlov Nearing Return
2 years agoWashington Capitals defenseman Dmitry Orlov (lower body) came through another practice session on Sunday and could be back in the lineup when the team hits the ice next time against Philadelphia Wednesday night. He has been forced to watch seven games from the sidelines. The team has lost five of the games Orlov has missed, giving up four-plus goals six times, so head coach Peter Laviolette should be desperate to get him back out there. Orlov has collected five assists in 13 games this season with 26 shots, 30 hits and 16 blocks.
