Orlov scored a goal on two shots with two PIM and two shots in Monday's 3-2 shootout loss to Buffalo. Orlov threw a soft shot toward the net in the latter stages of the third period and it ricocheted off the skate of a Buffalo defender and past goalie Linus Ullmark, tying the game at 2-2. It was Orlov's first goal since Dec. 21, snapping his personal 31-game drought. The 28-year-old, who logged a team-leading 26:40 of ice time Monday, has 27 points in 69 games on the season.

Orlov recorded a pair of assists in a 4-3 shootout victory over the Jets on Tuesday. The 28-year-old isn't scoring many goals this season, but he's closing in on a career high in assists. He needs four more helpers to tie his career best (27), and he has 19 games to do it. Orlov has four assists in his last 12 games. Overall, Orlov has three goals and 26 points with a plus-5 rating in 63 games this season.

Orlov notched two assists in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Islanders. The veteran blueliner recorded his first multi-point effort since Dec. 21. Orlov has been overshadowed by John Carlson's huge performance so far among Caps defensemen, but his 23 points (three goals, 20 helpers) through 49 games still represent a career-best pace for the 28-year-old.

Orlov registered a power-play helper in Friday's 4-3 win over the Hurricanes. The Russian reached the 20-point mark with his fifth power-play point of the season on a Lars Eller tally in the third period. Orlov has managed assists in each of the last three games, and two have come with a man advantage. The 28-year-old's stat line is rounded out with 64 shots on goal, 64 hits and 51 blocked shots in 42 appearances.

Orlov scored the game-winning goal and added a shorthanded assist in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Lightning. Orlov is actually on a pace that could see him flirt with 40 points for the first time in his career. He doesn't produce much on special teams, but does contribute enough hits and SOG to warrant slotting Orlov into the bottom spot on your blue line.
