He had a good preseason, I'm sure he knows this could be his last chance. Rooting for him.

Not that this comes as a surprise, but now it's official. Watching the Caps won't be the same without him. Obviously, wishing TJ all the best in his recovery.

Excerpts from the article:

The Capitals announced TJ Oshie has been listed as injured after his start-of-season physical on Wednesday. He will begin the season on LTIR.

The revelation comes after the Capitals included Oshie on their 72-man training camp roster as required because he’s still under contract with the club. He has one year remaining on his deal.

[...]

Per PuckPedia, the Capitals are currently $10.27 million over the salary cap, with 22 of 23 roster slots filled. Once Oshie ($5.75M) and Backstrom ($9.2M) are placed on LTIR, the team will have $4.68 million in free space and two freed-up roster spots.

Obligatory most legendary call in Caps (nay, NHL) history.

Excerpt from the article:

The Washington Capitals are bringing back a popular former player this fall — though how long he stays is up to him.

Jakub Vrana, a member of the Capitals’ 2018 Stanley Cup champion team, has inked a professional try out agreement with his former team. The deal means that if Vrana impresses during training camp, he could potentially earn a contract for the 2024-25 season and make the club’s Opening Night roster.
