The Capitals reassigned Sgarbossa to AHL Hershey on Sunday.

Sgarbossa was called up for the injured Nicklas Backstrom (upper body), and played two games, registering no points while averaging 8:07 of ice time. His demotion is a good sign that Backstrom is nearing a return to the ice. Sgarbossa will pivot to the AHL, where he has 14 points in 17 games thus far.
