Winnipeg Jets captain Adam Lowry to miss 5-6 months after hip surgery
WINNIPEG, Manitoba — Winnipeg Jets captain Adam Lowry is expected to miss five to six months after having hip surgery, the team announced Wednesday.
The timetable for Lowry's recovery will lead him to miss at least the first month of the 2025-26 regular season. The Jets did not reveal the reason why Lowry required surgery, which took place on Tuesday, and came 10 days after the regular-season Presidents' Trophy winners were eliminated by Dallas in Game 6 of their second-round playoff series.

T.J. Oshie, US Olympic star in Sochi and Capitals Stanley Cup champion, announces he's retiring
WASHINGTON (AP) — T.J. Oshie, who scored four shootout goals for the U.S. to beat host Russia at the 2014 Sochi Olympics and helped the Washington Capitals win the Stanley Cup in 2018, announced Monday he is retiring after playing 16 NHL seasons. Oshie shared his news in front of hundreds of fans gathered at the fountains at Washington Harbour in Georgetown, seven years to the day of one of the most memorable Cup celebrations in hockey history when he and several teammates jumped into the fountains and took a dip. The announcement had been expected for quite some time, with Oshie's contract expiring. The 38-year-old did not play this past season because of a nagging back injury that sidelined him off and on, going on long-term injured reserve instead. '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 news release sent out by the NHLPA. Oshie said in the spring of 2024 he would only return to the Capitals if he found a permanent solution or fix to the issue. His final game was at home on April 28 last year against the New York Rangers, a 4-2 loss in the first round that eliminated Washington in a sweep. Taken 24th in the 2005 draft by St. Louis, Oshie played 1,116 regular-season and playoff games in the league with the Blues and Capitals since making his debut in 2008. He had 336 goals and 428 assists for 764 points, including 29 goals during Washington's Cup run. Oshie made an international name for himself at the Olympics, earning the nickname 'T.J. Sochi' for going 4 for 6 in shootout attempts against Sergei Bobrovsky during the U.S.-Russia preliminary round game in that tournament. In the NHL, his biggest impact came after he was traded from the Blues to the Capitals in 2015. Oshie took on an immediate leadership role as a key addition to the core of Alex Ovechkin, Nicklas Backstrom and John Carlson, helping the team make the playoffs in eight of his nine seasons in the nation's capitals. ___

Capitals Forward T.J. Oshie Announces Retirement After 16 NHL Seasons
WASHINGTON — After 16 historic seasons in the NHL, Washington Capitals winger T.J. Oshie is hanging up the skates. Oshie announced his retirement from professional hockey on Monday in front of hundreds of fans gathered at the fountains at Washington Harbour in Georgetown, where he and his teammates swam after winning the Stanley Cup in 2018. Advertisement Fittingly, it was on this day seven years ago that he and his teammates pulled off that historic celebration. The 38-year-old did not play this past season amid ongoing complications with his back that have kept him off the ice. He had previously said he wouldn't return unless he found a permanent solution to his issues. His final NHL game was on April 28, 2024, a 4-2 loss to the New York Rangers in Game 4 of the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Oshie cemented his legacy as a "glue guy" and key member of the Capitals' core following his trade to D.C. on July 2, 2015. Over nine years with the Capitals, Oshie posted 192 goals and 193 assists for 385 points, the ninth-most in franchise history, and his 76 power-play goals are the fifth-most in franchise history. He put up 21 points in 24 games during the team's playoff run in 2018 to help lead Washington to its first and only Stanley Cup.
