• Capitals' T.J. Oshie: Won't play in 2024-25

  09/18/2024 • By RotoWire

  Oshie will be put on long-term injured reserve due to a chronic back injury that's expected to cost him the entire 2024-25 campaign, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com on Wednesday. Oshie had 12 goals and 25 points in 52 regular-season games with Washington in 2023-24. While the possibility of him someday returning to the NHL hasn't been ruled out, Oshie will turn 38 on Dec. 23 and is set to become an unrestricted free agent in the summer of 2025. If he has played in his final game, then he'll be hanging up his skates after scoring 302 goals and 695 points across 1,010 career regular-season contests. He also won the Stanley Cup with Washington in 2018 and played a vital role in that playoff run, supplying eight goals and 21 points in 24 outings.

  Oshie recorded an assist in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Red Wings. Making his return from an upper-body injury that cost him four games, Oshie scooped up a Detroit turnover in the neutral zone and fed Alex Ovechkin for what proved to be the game-winning goal late in the second period. The 37-year-old Oshie has once again had trouble staying on the ice in 2023-24, playing only 48 games -- the fourth straight season he'll end up playing less than 60 -- and managing just 11 goals and 23 points.
