Sent back to AHL
Protas was loaned to AHL Hershey on Wednesday.
Impact
Protas got his first taste of NHL action across the past week, recording a goal, three assists, two blocked shots and two PIM while averaging 15:54 of ice time over four appearances. Following his relatively successful time with the Capitals to close out the NHL regular season, he'll return to Hershey, where he should see some more opportunities as the AHL season winds down.

Three points in Saturday's win
Protas scored a power-play goal and added two even-strength assists in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Penguins.
Impact
The third-period tally was the first NHL goal for Protas in his second game, as the 19-year-old's transition to the top level has been made easier by skating on a line with his older brother Aliaksei Protas, who collected two points including his 25th goal of the season in the win. The teenage Protas figures to see a big role over the final two games of the regular season as the Capitals make a desperate push to get past the Flyers, Blue Jackets and Islanders for the final available playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Logs helper in NHL debut
Protas posted an assist and two PIM in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Maple Leafs.
Impact
Protas played 15:37 in his NHL debut and also won six of 14 faceoffs while starting as a middle-six center. The 19-year-old had 62 points in 66 AHL appearances with Hershey this season prior to the call-up. It's unclear if Protas is here to stay, but the Capitals clearly think he can give them a boost as they try to stay in the playoff race. If the Capitals fall short of the postseason, Protas will still get a chance to contribute for Hershey, which is currently in line to make the AHL playoffs, though its spot hasn't been clinched.

Huge game in AHL win
Protas scored a goal and distributed five assists in AHL Hershey's 8-1 win over Hartford on Saturday.
Impact
Protas' best game of the year was an impressive display of playmaking. He has six goals and 11 assists over his last 10 outings. For the season, he's up to 28 goals, 62 points and a plus-16 rating through 66 appearances as an AHL rookie.

Gains three points Sunday
Protas scored twice and added an assist in AHL Hershey's 5-4 loss to Providence on Sunday.
Impact
Protas has been pretty steady all season, but he hasn't had a lot of explosive games on offense. This was his third three-point effort in 57 contests. Overall, Protas is at 24 goals, 24 assists and a plus-7 rating. The 19-year-old forward has done well as an AHL rookie, but he may need another year before he's an NHL option.

Keeps up strong pace
Protas scored twice and added an assist in AHL Hershey's 6-2 win over Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Saturday.
Impact
This was Protas' seventh straight game with at least one goal. He's potted eight goals and six assists during the remarkable streak, which got him out of a four-game slump. Protas is up to 10 goals, nine helpers, 36 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 18 appearances. He looks like the real deal, and he could get a look in the NHL as soon as this year if the Capitals suffer a rough stretch of injuries.

Three more points in AHL loss
Protas scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Hershey's 5-3 loss to Cleveland on Saturday.
Impact
Protas is taking off with five goals and five assists during his five-game point streak. He's up to seven goals and eight helpers through 16 outings overall. Protas has been explosive at times with six multi-point efforts, and while he still needs a bit more consistency, his offensive talent is already evident early in his AHL career.

AHL goal streak at four games
Protas scored a goal and added an assist in AHL Hershey's 5-2 win over Cleveland on Thursday.
Impact
Protas seems to be finding his way in the AHL now, as he has four goals and three assists during a four-game point streak. For the season, he's up to six tallies and 12 points over 15 outings, including five multi-point efforts. The 19-year-old winger will likely get at least all of 2025-26 to adjust to the professional ranks, but he could be a challenger for an NHL job in a year or two.
