Caps prospect Connor McMichael scored his first professional goal Thursday, a third-period power play tally and game-winner in Hershey’s 3-2 victory against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins at Mohegan Sun Arena.
Bears captain Matt Moulson and Mike Sgarbossa also scored for the Chocolate and White.
McMichael, 20, was Washington’s 2019 first round draft pick. He played one game for the Caps this season but was reassigned to Hershey shortly after.
Phoenix Copley played in net for the Bears.
The Bears next play on Sunday at 1 p.m. against the Lehigh Valley Phantoms at GIANT Center.
