Joey Crabb - W - Washington Capitals
March 23, 2013 - 12:40 PM ET

Joey Crabb wasn't claimed on waivers.

Consequently, the Washington Capitals have sent Crabb down to AHL Hershey. Crabb was waived so that the Capitals could make room on their roster for Mike Green, who was on the injured reserve list until Thursday. "With Ovi moving over to the right we have more right wingers than left and [Crabb was the] odd man out," Capitals coach Adam Oates explained.
