Surfaces on IR McMichael (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

Impact McMichael sustained the injury late in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over Detroit. He will miss at least the next four games and won't be ready to return until after the Olympic break. McMichael has eight goals, 31 points, 105 shots on net, 30 blocked shots and 30 hits across 55 appearances this season.

Two-point effort Saturday McMichael scored a goal on five shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Oilers.

Impact McMichael's goal put the Capitals ahead 5-4 with 4:51 left in the third period, but the lead didn't last. That tally secured his first multi-point effort since Jan. 9 versus the Blackhawks, and it ended a five-game point drought. Through 53 contests, McMichael has eight goals, 30 points, 104 shots on net, 27 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating. He's still shooting just 7.7 percent, so there's some room for increased production if his luck turns around.

Scores in overtime win McMichael scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens.

Impact McMichael tallied at 4:21 of overtime to secure the comeback win for the Capitals. The 24-year-old has earned seven points over his last five games, giving him some momentum in a second-line role. For the season, he's at seven goals, 28 points, 95 shots on net and a plus-8 rating over 47 contests. He's still shooting a mere 7.4 percent, so an uptick in scoring is possible for the remainder of the campaign.

Piles up four helpers Monday McMichael notched four assists in Monday's 7-4 win over the Ducks.

Impact The 24-year-old had a hand in each of the Capitals' first four goals, including Justin Sourdif's first career hat trick. McMichael hasn't gotten onto the scoresheet in consecutive games since late November, making him a risky DFS play, but his overall numbers -- five goals and 25 points in 43 contests with 82 shots on net and a plus-6 rating -- have some value in deeper season-long formats.
