The Baltimore Skipjacks, who are 1-7-2 in their past 10 AHL games, received some player help yesterday from the Washington Capitals.
Washington sent center Tim Bergland, who had one goal and three assists in 14 NHL games this season, to Baltimore on a two-week reconditioning assignment.
Bergland, who split his time between the Capitals and Skipjacks last season, joins defenseman Shawn Chambers, sent to Baltimore last week on a conditioning assignment. Chambers has played in two games with no points.
