3 years agoWashington Capitals defenseman Dmitry Orlov has been suspended for two games for kneeing Winnipeg Jets forward Nikolaj Ehlers in Tuesday's game, the National Hockey League's Department of Player Safety announced on Wednesday. Orlov will miss the Capitals' upcoming games against the Bruins and Senators later this week, while the 30-year-old will be eligible to return from the suspension to begin next week with Monday's matchup against the Golden Knights. Orlov has been a productive defenseman across standard fantasy formats with five goals and 14 assists for a total of 19 points, along with a plus-17 rating through 38 games played.--Denis Vondrus - RotoBaller
