BREAKING - Former Cup Champions Entire Career Likely Over After Due to Serious Injury
The Washington Capitals are officially going through it, long time Washington Capital Niklas Backstrom's career is expected to be over, he'll be getting a surgery that only two others have ever gotten in NHL history- One retired after doing so, and one played half a season and was forced to do so.
Even former Capitals players are going through it as news broke this morning that former 2018 Stanley Cup Champion and long-time Washington Capital Brayden Holtby's career is likely over..
NHL insider Frank Servalli reported that Brayden Holtby will miss the entire 82 game season of 2023-2024, and retirement is clearly a suitable option at the moment.
Holtby spent a whopping ten years with Washington until he was dealt/signed elsewhere, where then he was flipped to a new home in Dallas where he posted a impressive 2.78 goals against and a even more impressive .913 save percentage as a 32 year old.
