INJURIES

Starting in Columbus Shepard will patrol the visiting crease in Columbus on Saturday, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.
Impact Shepard will make his first start since he was promoted from AHL Hershey on April 4. Shepard was 22-11-3 with a 2.81 GAA and an .891 save percentage over 37 appearances with AHL Hershey this season. The Blue Jackets are registering 3.17 goals per game, 11th in the NHL in 2024-25.

Capitals goalie Logan Thompson is expected to miss at least a couple of games with injury

Washington Capitals goaltender Logan Thompson is expected to miss at least a couple of games because of injury, coach Spencer Carbery says
APRIL 4, 2025 • Associated Press
Promoted from minors Shepard was recalled from AHL Hershey on Friday.
Impact The decision to bring up Shepard from the minors likely means that Logan Thompson (upper body) won't be available versus the Blackhawks on Friday. As such, fantasy players should probably be expecting Shepard to serve as the backup to Charlie Lindgren against the Hawks. A back-to-back against the Blue Jackets on April 12 and 13 could give Shepard the chance to start his first NHL game this year -- assuming Thompson isn't back by then.
APRIL 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Sent down Saturday Shepard was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Saturday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
Impact With Charlie Lindgren coming off IR, Shepard will return to the AHL. Shepard served as Logan Thompson's backup in Washington's last four contests, though he's yet to see any game action in the NHL this year.
JANUARY 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Back with Caps Shepard was recalled from AHL Hershey on Saturday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
Impact Shepard will rejoin Washington with Charlie Lindgren (upper body) landing on IR. The 29-year-old Shepard made four appearances with the Caps earlier this year, going 2-1-1 with an .894 save percentage.
JANUARY 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Waived by Washington Shepard was placed on waivers by the Capitals on Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Shepard missed the end of the preseason due to a lower-body injury and will be left off Washington's Opening Night roster. He made four regular-season appearances for the Capitals last year and posted a 2-1-1 record, 3.18 GAA and .894 save percentage.
OCTOBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with lower body injury Shepard wasn't on the ice for Wednesday's practice session due to a lower body injury, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.
Impact The severity of Shepard's injury isn't clear, but he was being evaluated by the Capitals' medical staff during Wednesday's practice. The 28-year-old started in Washington's preseason loss to the Bruins on Sept. 24, but if he's healthy for the start of the regular season, he'll likely head to the AHL, where he's had plenty of success.
OCTOBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Between pipes Tuesday Shepard will guard the road crease in Tuesday's exhibition contest versus Boston, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Impact Shepard will play the entirety of Tuesday's preseason game. The 28-year-old is one of the AHL's top netminders -- he's won consecutive Calder Cup championships with the Hershey Bears. Shepard will likely be limited to the AHL again this year, barring injury, after Washington traded for Logan Thompson to form a tandem in net with Charlie Lindgren. Shepard was 2-1-1 with an .894 save percentage and a 3.19 GAA in four regular-season appearances with the Capitals in 2023-24.
SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Defending crease Sunday Shepard will patrol the home crease in Sunday's preseason matchup against Philadelphia, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
Impact Shepard had a 2-1-1 record with a 3.19 GAA and an .894 save percentage in four regular-season outings with Washington in 2023-24. He is expected to split Sunday's contest with Clay Stevenson. The 28-year-old Shepard will likely begin the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, but he must clear waivers to be sent down.

MAY 5, 2024 • PENNLIVE.COM
Reassigned to AHL Shepard was sent down to AHL Hershey on Saturday.
Impact Shepard was recalled when Darcy Kuemper tweaked something during practice Wednesday, but Kuemper was well enough to back up Charlie Lindgren on Thursday and Friday. Shepard is 4-2-1 with a 3.18 GAA and an .894 save percentage at the NHL level this season.
APRIL 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back in NHL Shepard was recalled from AHL Hershey on Thursday.
Impact Shepard has a 2-1-1 record, 3.18 GAA and .894 save percentage in four appearances with Washington this season. Darcy Kuemper tweaked something during Wednesday's practice, per Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press, and while that might not lead to Kuemper missing time, Shepard was summoned for precautionary reasons.
APRIL 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to AHL Shepard was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Saturday.
Impact Darcy Kuemper was dealing with an illness, which is why Shepard was with the Capitals, but Kuemper is healthy enough to serve as the backup goalie Saturday. Shepard has a 3.19 GAA and an .894 save percentage in four appearances with Washington this season.
MARCH 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Summoned Friday Shepard is back up from AHL Hershey on Friday.
Impact Shepard was briefly loaned to Hershey earlier in the day for roster flexibility purposes. If Darcy Kuemper (illness) ends up being available for Saturday's game against Chicago, then Shepard might once again head to the minors.
MARCH 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Sent down to minors Shepard was sent down to the AHL on Friday.
Impact Shepard will be back up with the big club soon, but in order to be eligible for the AHL playoffs he needed to be sent down. The 28-year-old has played four games for the Capitals this year. He's recorded a .894 save percentage and a 2-1-1 record.
MARCH 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Up from minors Shepard was summoned from AHL Hershey on Thursday.
Impact Shepard has a 3.19 GAA and an .894 save percentage in four contests with Washington this season. He also has posted a 2.00 GAA and a .919 save percentage in 26 outings with Hershey. Shepard's up with the big club because Darcy Kuemper might miss Thursday's game against Pittsburgh due to an illness.
MARCH 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Sent back to minors Shepard was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Tuesday.
Impact Shepard saw action in four games while on the NHL roster, posting a 2-1-1 record, 3.18 GAA and .894 save percentage. With Charlie Lindgren (upper body) coming off injured reserve in a corresponding move, the figures to spend the rest of the 2023-24 campaign in the minors, barring another goalie injury in Washington.
JANUARY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Fades late against Devils Shepard made 22 saves in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to New Jersey.
Impact The Capitals came back once to tie the game at 3-3 late in the second period, but Shepard had plenty of traffic in front of him during the final 20-plus minutes and wound up allowing three more goals on just nine shots down the stretch. Since being recalled from AHL Hershey last week, the 28-year-old netminder has gone 0-1-1 in two starts while giving up eight goals on 64 shots, but both outings came on the second half of back-to-back sets. Darcy Kuemper figures to see the bulk of the work while Charlie Lindgren (upper body) is on IR.
JANUARY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Slated to start Wednesday Shepard is set to start at home against New Jersey on Wednesday, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
Impact Shepard stopped 34 of 36 shots in a 3-2 shootout loss to Nashville in his last start Saturday. He's 2-0-1 with a 2.27 GAA and a .926 save percentage in three outings in 2023-24. The Devils are a difficult assignment, ranking seventh offensively this year with 3.46 goals per game.
JANUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Loses in shootout Shepard allowed two goals on 36 shots in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Predators.
Impact Shepard made plenty of strong saves in regulation and overtime, but Gustav Nyquist and Ryan O'Reilly put pucks past him in the shootout. The 28-year-old Shepard has not been defeated in regulation this season, going 2-0-1 with seven goals allowed on 95 shots across his three appearances. He'll likely serve as Darcy Kuemper's backup for as long as Charlie Lindgren (upper body) is out.
DECEMBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Expected to start Saturday Shepard will start in Saturday's home game versus Nashville, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.
Impact Shepard was recalled from AHL Hershey on Saturday because Charlie Lindgren is dealing with an upper-body injury. Darcy Kuemper, who stopped 24 of 29 shots in a 5-1 loss to the Islanders on Friday, will serve as the backup goaltender versus the Predators. Shepard is 2-0-0 with a 2.50 GAA and a .915 save percentage in two contests with Washington this season. The Predators have lost their last three games while scoring just eight goals, so this is a favorable matchup for the 28-year-old goaltender.
DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Up from minors Shepard was summoned from AHL Hershey on Saturday.
Impact Shepard has a 2.28 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 16 contests with Hershey this year. He also has appeared in two games with Washington, providing a 2-0-0 record, 2.50 GAA and .915 save percentage. Charlie Lindgren left Friday's 5-1 loss to the Islanders because of an upper-body injury, which is presumably why Shepard was recalled. Darcy Kuemper entered that contest, stopping 24 of 29 shots in 53:14 of ice time, so there's a chance Washington might start Shepard for Saturday's home game against Nashville rather than make Kuemper play for the second straight night.
DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dropped to AHL Shepard was returned to AHL Hershey on Monday, per the NHL media site.
Impact Shepard will be replaced in the lineup by Charlie Lindgren (illness), who will return from a one-game absence. Darcy Kuemper will be between the pipes against the Coyotes on Monday.
DECEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Up from AHL Shepard was called up from AHL Hershey on Saturday.
Impact Shepard has a 2.66 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 10 outings with Hershey this year. He also has a 2-0-0 record, 2.50 GAA and .915 save percentage in two contests with Washington. Darcy Kuemper is expected to start in Saturday's road game against Vegas, but Charlie Lindgren missed the morning skate for maintenance reasons, so it's possible Shepard will dress as the backup goaltender in his place.
