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.

When Oshie re-upped for eight years I thought we would probably regret it and I can't think of another hockey prediction I've been more wrong about and I am so happy about that. He's a Capitals legend.
