Ilya Protas - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

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.

Earns first AHL points Protas scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in AHL Hershey's 5-1 win over Springfield on Saturday.

Impact These were Protas' first two points in three games at the AHL level. He's underaged for the level as a 19-year-old Belarus native, so some growing pains should be expected. Protas was a third-round pick of the Capitals in 2024, and he's looking to follow in the footsteps of his brother Aliaksei, who has established himself as a reliable two-way forward at the NHL level.
