Capitals' Travis Boyd: Returns to minors

Boyd was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Thursday.

Analysis:

While he didn't end up making his NHL debut after the most recent call-up, Boyd remains an intriguing prospect for the Capitals. He's second on his minor-league team with 43 points (11 goals, 32 assists) in 53 games, so look for team brass to call his name if injuries start to threaten the big club down the middle.
