Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie will be placed on long-term injured reserve for the 2024-25 NHL season because of a chronic back issue, the team announced on Wednesday.
The club\'s decision came following Oshie\'s medical examination on the Capitals\' opening day of training camp. Oshie\'s back issue -- which has kept him in and out of Washington\'s lineup for years -- progressed to the stage where he and the team felt it was time he stepped away from the ice.
