Apr 28, 2024; Washington, District of Columbia, USA; Washington Capitals right wing T.J. Oshie (77) lines up for a face-off against the New York Rangers in the second period in game four of the first round of the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs at Capital One Arena. Mandatory Credit: Geoff Burke-Imagn Images Olympic hero and longtime NHL forward T.J. Oshie announced his retirement Monday after a 16-year NHL career.
Oshie, who did not play in 2024-25 due to a back injury, split his 1,010 career games between the St. Louis Blues (2008-15) and Washington Capitals (2015-24). The Blues selected him in the first round of the 2005 draft, 24th overall.
He helped the Capitals win their first and only Stanley Cup in 2018, tallying eight goals (six on the power play) and 13 assists across 24 playoff games.
“I would like to thank the Washington Capitals and the St. Louis Blues for giving me the opportunity to play the game I love, all of my teammates who battled with me every night, my coaches who challenged me to be better every day, and the athletic trainers and equipment staff who got me ready to play,” Oshie said in a statement via the NHL Players Association.
“I also want to thank the fans your energy and passion made every game memorable, and it was an honor to play in front of you.”
Oshie tallied 695 points in his career (302 goals, 393 assists) and managed double-digit goals in all but one of his 16 seasons. His high-water mark came in 2016-17, when he had 33 goals in 68 games for the Capitals.
Oshie was voted to one All-Star Game, representing the Capitals in the 2019-20 season. Injuries limited him to 44 games in 2021-22, 58 in 2022-23 and 52 in 2023-24.
A native of Washington State, Oshie is also known for his heroics during the 2014 Winter Olympics.
The U.S. went to a shootout against Russia in the preliminary round. International rules allowed for players to be re-used limitlessly in the shootout, and Oshie was used six times — including five shots in a row. Oshie scored on four of his attempts, including the winner in the eighth shootout round.
According to the Capitals, Oshie ranks second in NHL history in shootout shooting percentage with a minimum of 100 attempts (47.1 percent). He is third all-time in game-deciding shootout goals (21) and tied for third in total shootout goals (49).
