Headlines

Nylander's downward spiral continues: The Washington Capitals have assigned center Michael Nylander to Grand Rapids of the AHL for a conditioning stint, giving the expensive bench-sitting veteran a chance to get back on the ice. Nylander will continue to count against the Capitals' 23-man roster, but the move to Grand Rapids gives him the opportunity to play without taking playing time from Washington's own prospects.

Fantasy Analysis

Nylander hasn't played all season, having fallen out of favor with the coaching staff and front office. The Capitals have found it difficult to trade the 37-year-old forward because of his $5.5 million salary and the no-movement clause in his contract. It wasn't long ago that Nylander was a high-end Fantasy option. Now, he is not even on the radar because of the sticky situation in Washington. Keep Nylander off Fantasy rosters until further notice.
