Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Beaten three times Tuesday
Stevenson stopped 18 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Flyers. The fourth goal was an empty-netter in the final seconds of the game.
Stevenson has started each of the Capitals' last three games due to the absences of Logan Thompson (upper body) and Charlie Lindgren (lower body). Stevenson stopped 48 of 52 shots in his previous two starts, so he was due to return to earth sooner than later. If Thompson can't play in Thursday's home matchup against Nashville, Stevenson could make another start.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Starting again Tuesday
Stevenson will defend the road net against Philadelphia on Tuesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Stevenson will make his third straight start, and his second in two nights. He has won his previous two outings while stopping 48 of 52 shots, including a 29-save performance in Monday's 4-1 victory over the Islanders. Philadelphia ranks 21st in the league with 2.91 goals per game this season.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Second straight win
Stevenson made 29 saves on 30 shots in a 4-1 win over the Islanders on Monday.
It was his second consecutive start and win while filling in for Logan Thompson (upper body) and Charlie Lindgren (lower body). Stevenson was great -- he made several sharp saves, including a sprawling pad save in the third while shorthanded that preserved a 2-1 lead, and his mates were outstanding, blocking 23 shots. Stevenson will remain in the blue paint until Lindgren and Thompson are back from the IR.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Drawing start against Islanders
Stevenson will defend the home crease against the Islanders on Monday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Stevenson made his first start of the season for the Capitals at home against Carolina on Saturday, turning aside 19 of 22 shots (.864 save percentage) in a 4-3 overtime victory, marking his first win at the NHL level. He'll have a more favorable matchup against the Islanders, who are scoring 2.84 goals per game this year, which is the ninth-worst mark in the league.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Hangs on for first NHL win
Stevenson turned aside 19 of 22 shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Hurricanes.
Stevenson's first outing began on the wrong foot, as he allowed three consecutive goals inside the opening 24 minutes. From that point, he helped turn the game around as the Capitals' offense came to life to steal the win from their division rival. The 26-year-old netminder was called into action for the first time this season due to the absence of Logan Thompson (upper body) and Charlie Lindgren (lower body). Saturday's win was the first of Stevenson's career after losing his only other NHL start a season ago. His fantasy value will depend on Thompson's availability, as the Capitals' starting netminder is listed as day-to-day. With Lindgren's move to injured reserve, Stevenson could make a couple of appearances before the break for the 2026 Winter Olympics. If Thompson can't go for Washington's home clash with the Islanders on Monday, Stevenson will likely get the nod.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Set to face Carolina
Stevenson is set to start at home against Carolina on Saturday, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
Stevenson is making his NHL season debut due to the absences of Logan Thompson (upper body) and Charlie Lindgren (lower body). The 26-year-old Stevenson has a 2.57 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 24 AHL outings in 2025-26. Carolina has won five of its past six games while averaging 4.50 goals per game over that stretch.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Called up from AHL
Stevenson was recalled from AHL Hershey on Thursday.
The call-up was necessitated as Logan Thompson took a shot off his mask versus Seattle on Wednesday and is out with an upper-body injury. Stevenson is expected to back up Charlie Lindgren in Detroit on Thursday. Stevenson had an 11-8-3 record with a 2.57 GAA and a .912 save percentage over 24 AHL games before his recall.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Returned to minors
Stevenson was assigned to AHL Hershey on Monday.
Washington brought up Garin Bjorklund from the minors in a corresponding move. Stevenson suited up as Logan Thompson's backup in Sunday's 2-0 win over Columbus. The 26-year-old Stevenson has a 7-4-0 record with a 2.54 GAA and a .913 save percentage over 11 AHL appearances this season.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Up with big club
Stevenson has been recalled from AHL Hershey by the Capitals, the team announced Sunday.
A busy day of roster moves saw the placement of Charlie Lindgren (upper body) on injured reserve and Stevenson called up to take his place on the roster. The 26-year-old has put up good numbers with AHL Hershey on the year, going 7-4-0 with a 2.54 GAA and a .913 save percentage. Logan Thompson is Washington's starter and is playing great, so with no back-to-back games being played in the next week, it seems unlikely that Stevenson will get into a game if Lindgren's injury isn't long term.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Secures overtime win in AHL
Stevenson stopped 36 of 37 shots in AHL Hershey's 2-1 overtime win over Lehigh Valley on Sunday.
Stevenson is 5-3-0 with a 2.49 GAA and a .909 save percentage over eight games for the Bears in 2025-26, playing better than he did last season but below his 2023-24 level. Stevenson is considered among the most NHL-ready goalies that aren't at that level already, so he'll be the next man up if Logan Thompson or Charlie Lindgren gets hurt.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Lands on waivers
Stevenson was placed on waivers by the Capitals on Sunday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Stevenson made just one regular-season appearance in the NHL last year, and he'll head to AHL Hershey ahead of the 2025-26 campaign if he clears waivers. He made 33 regular-season outings with the Bears last year and went 18-8-4 with a 2.94 GAA and an .888 save percentage.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Set to face Philadelphia
Stevenson is expected to start at home for Thursday's preseason game against the Flyers, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
Stevenson had a 2.94 GAA and an .888 save percentage across 33 regular-season appearances with AHL Hershey in 2024-25. He's expected to start the upcoming season in the minors, while Logan Thompson and Charlie Lindgren are set to be Washington's starting and backup goaltenders, respectively.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Returns to minors
Stevenson was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Friday.
Stevenson was with the Capitals because Charlie Lindgren (personal) was questionable for Game 5 against Carolina on Thursday, but Lindgren ended up serving as the backup goaltender while Logan Thompson got the start. Washington lost that game 3-1 and was eliminated from the playoffs, so Stevenson will return to Hershey. The 26-year-old had a 2.94 GAA and an .888 save percentage across 33 regular-season outings with the minor-league squad.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Called up from minors
Stevenson was recalled from AHL Hershey on Thursday.
Stevenson's elevation to the NHL roster could be an indication that Logan Thompson or Charlie Lindgren is in danger of missing out against the Hurricanes in Game 5 on Thursday. The Bears aren't in action until Friday's clash with Charlotte, so there is still time for Stevenson to head back down if he's not needed by the Caps.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Sent to AHL
Stevenson was loaned to AHL Hershey on Thursday.
Stevenson had been with the NHL club since mid-April, and he started in the Capitals' regular-season finale in Pittsburgh, allowing five goals on 33 shots (.868 save percentage) en route to the loss. He didn't appear in the Capitals' first-round series in the playoffs and should have a chance to contribute for the Bears during the Calder Cup Playoffs.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Busy in NHL debut
Stevenson stopped 33 of 38 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Penguins.
Stevenson made his NHL debut Thursday. He kept things fairly close through two periods, but the Penguins scored twice in a span of 15 seconds in the third to run away with the win. Stevenson's time in the NHL is likely to be limited -- he'll head back to AHL Hershey once Logan Thompson (upper body) is ready to return. Even if Thompson misses some playoff games, Charlie Lindgren is likely to get the starts over Stevenson.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Drawing start against Pittsburgh
Stevenson will defend the road crease during Thursday's regular-season finale against Pittsburgh, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.
The Capitals' playoff seeding is already secure heading into the final game of the regular season, so Stevenson will make his NHL debut against the Penguins. Over 33 appearances with AHL Hershey this year, he went 18-8-4 with a 2.94 GAA and .888 save percentage. Head coach Spencer Carbery said Thursday that Logan Thompson (upper body) continues to progress in his recovery, and it wouldn't be surprising to see Stevenson head back to the minors if Thompson is cleared to return for the start of the playoffs.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Joining NHL club
Stevenson was recalled from AHL Hershey on Monday.
Stevenson will trade places with Hunter Shepard, who was shipped down to the minors in a corresponding move. The 26-year-old Stevenson has never played in an NHL game, but could get a look over the Capitals' last two games with the team having already wrapped up the best record in the Eastern Conference -- especially if Logan Thompson (upper body) remains on the shelf.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Inks three-year deal
Stevenson agreed to terms on a three-year, $2.325 million contract with Washington on Tuesday.
Stevenson's deal is two-way during the first season before converting to a one-way contract starting with the 2025-26 campaign. The timing of the one-way clause coincides with the expiration of backup Charlie Lindgren's deal and would seem to indicate that Stevenson is poised to take over the No. 2 job in the future.

Capitals' Clay Stevenson: Returned to minors
Stevenson was sent down to AHL Hershey on Tuesday, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.
Stevenson had been recalled to fill the void left by Charle Lindgren (upper body), but the Capitals seem intent to give Hunter Shepard a look as Darcy Kuemper's understudy. The 24-year-old will await his next chance to make his NHL debut.
