Capitals Recall Miroshnichenko from Hershey

November 20, 2024

The Washington Capitals, the National Hockey League affiliate of the Hershey Bears, announced today that forward Ivan Miroshnichenko has been recalled from Hershey. The announcement was made by Washington senior vice president and general manager Chris Patrick.

Miroshnichenko, 20, has scored 14 points (7g, 7a) in 16 games with Hershey this season. He ranks second on the team in scoring and is tied for the team lead in power-play goals with three. 

Last year Miroshnichenko logged 25 points (9g, 16a) in 47 games to lead all Hershey rookies in scoring. In the playoffs, he tied for second on the club with seven goals and collected 12 points as Hershey won the 2024 Calder Cup. 

With the Capitals last season, Miroshnichenko appeared in 21 games, scoring six points (2g, 4a). He made his Stanley Cup Playoffs debut on Apr. 26 versus the New York Rangers.

Miroshnichenko was Washington's first-round pick (20th overall) in the 2022 NHL Draft.

The Bears continue the 2024-25 regular season, presented by Penn State Health, when they visit the Toronto Marlies tonight at 7 p.m. at Coca-Cola Coliseum.
