Latest news
Milano signed a one-year contract with SC Bern of the Swiss National League on Wednesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Milano was held to eight points over 31 appearances for the Capitals this season, and he ended the year in the AHL. Given the winger's declining usage in recent years, this may be the last we've seen of him in the NHL, though that's far from a given since he's just entering his age-30 season in 2026-27.

Milano scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Hershey's 4-1 win over Rockford on Friday.
Milano was waived Wednesday and reported to Hershey a day later. The 29-year-old will likely be waiting for an injury to thin out the Capitals' depth for his next chance in the NHL. He hasn't been an AHL regular since 2018-19, when he logged 24 points in 27 contests for Cleveland.

Milano was designated for waivers Wednesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Through 31 contests this year, Milano has generated four goals and four helpers. However, he remains pointless with the man advantage despite logging 1:03 of power-play ice time per game. His $1.9 million cap hit could be of interest to some teams. If Milano clears waivers, he figures to head to AHL Hershey.

Milano (personal) has rejoined the Capitals, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports Wednesday.
Milano didn't play in Washington's 4-2 win over Nashville on Feb. 5 for personal reasons. He has four goals and eight points in 31 outings in 2025-26. Although Milano is an option to play when Washington's schedule resumes next Wednesday against Philadelphia, he might end up being a healthy scratch.

Milano has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Nashville due to personal reasons, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Milano appeared in each of the last three games, recording an assist, a hit and a minus-1 rating during that time. He'll be unavailable for the Capitals' final game before the Olympic break, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him back in action when the team resumes play in late February.

Milano logged an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Hurricanes.
Milano had been scratched for the previous seven games, but he got into the lineup as Connor McMichael (upper body) landed on injured reserve. The 29-year-old Milano has earned eight points, 33 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating over 29 appearances in a part-time role this season. He may get more playing time leading into the Olympic break -- McMichael is week-to-week and his status after the break is uncertain at this time.
