T.J. Oshie officially announced his retirement from the NHL during an emotional speech at the Georgetown Waterfront, seven years to the day after celebrating the Capitals' Stanley Cup victory at the same location. Surrounded by teammates, family, and fans, Oshie reflected on his 16-year career with heartfelt gratitude and shared memories — from learning the game from his late father to battling injuries in his final seasons. As pages of his speech scattered in the wind, his humor and humility showed why he was so beloved.

Oshie played 1,010 games, recorded 695 points, and became a key piece of the Capitals’ Stanley Cup run in 2018. Known as a fierce competitor and consummate teammate, he pushed through chronic back injuries and even a broken hand during his final playoff games. His retirement marks the end of an era for Washington, closing the chapter on a core group that defined the team’s most successful years. Oshie’s legacy will be remembered not just in stats — but in heart, leadership, and character.
