He spent the rest of the season with the Hershey Bears and returned to Hershey to start the 2006–07 AHL season. He had a brief callup to the Capitals early in the 2006–07 season and was recalled again in late January. His first game back with the Capitals came on January 27, 2007; Fehr scored his first NHL goal, which would be the game-winner in the Capitals' 7–3 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes.[1]
