In a move that signals a boost to their defensive depth, the Washington Capitals have recalled defenseman Clay Stevenson from the American Hockey League's Hershey Bears. Stevenson, a 25-year-old blueliner, has been a key contributor to the Bears this season, tallying 10 points in 34 games. His recall comes as the Capitals navigate a challenging stretch of their schedule, and coach Spencer Carbery may be looking to add some fresh faces to his lineup in an effort to spark a turnaround. With the Capitals struggling to find consistency in their defensive play, Stevenson's recall could be a timely injection of energy and experience.
