Hagelin hadn't played in the NHL since 2021-22 due to an eye injury and announced Wednesday via his Instagram account that he will be retiring from professional hockey. The 35-year-old left-winger leaves the NHL with 110 goals, 186 assists, a +119 plus/minus, and 1429 SOG across 713 games played as well as a 2X Stanley Cup Champion. He played for five franchises including the New York Rangers, Pittsburgh Penguins, Washington Capitals, Anaheim Ducks, and Los Angeles Kings.

Hagelin underwent left hip resurfacing surgery Monday and will be out for a "lengthy" amount of time as he starts the indefinitely long, rehabilitation process. Hagelin had not played a game in 2022-23 and will hope to return to the NHL to build on his 713-game career where he has 110 goals and 186 assists.

Hagelin has been placed on the Injured Reserve after being held out of camp with a lingering lower-body injury. The 24-year-old was looking to bounce back after a down year in 2021-22 where he posted three goals and 14 points in 53 games while occupying the Capitals' bottom six throughout the season. The 11-year veteran will hope to return sometime this season and make an impact as he looks to reach 30 points for the first time since 2017-18.

Hagelin has been out since February 28th and is expected to go a second surgery to address his eye injury. The Capitals acquired Johan Larsson from the Coyotes to help replace Hagelin in the bottom-6.

Hagelin suffered an eye injury in Tuesday's practice and is expected to be sidelined long-term. Anthony Mantha may be set to return to the lineup on Thursday to help replace Hagelin.

Hagelin, who has been out since November 7th, is expected to miss one more week but will play next Tuesday in San Jose. Hagelin had a slow start to the season, posting just five assists in his first 17 games.

Hagelin has been out since November 7th due to an upper-body injury and his move to LTIR means he'll have to miss at least four more games. The move helps the Capitals financially, as they're able to recall reinforcements from Hershey (AHL) to help fill the gaps left by injuries to Hagelin, Nic Dowd and Nicklas Backstrom.

Hagelin will come out of the Capitals lineup vs. the Golden Knights, so look for Chandler Stephenson to move up to the third line with Lars Eller. Hagelin, who has just five assists in 17 games this season, should be considered questionable heading into Monday's game vs. the Coyotes.

The Capitals acquired Hagelin from the Kings in February and the veteran winger put his early-season struggles behind him, posting 11 points (3G / 8A) in 20 games with Washington. Hagelin had a 56.7 CorsiFor% and led all Capitals forwards in PK TOI/GM (2:21) after being acquired.

The Capitals waived Devante Smith-Pelly on Wednesday, trying to clear space to add Hagelin, beefing up their bottom-6. The 30-year-old has tremendous speed but has struggled offensively this season, scoring just two goals with six assists (eight points) in 38 games.

Hagelin has recorded just three points (1G / 2A) in 16 games this season, despite playing exclusively with Evgeni Malkin. Hagelin brings a lot of speed to the Kings lineup and trading away Pearson with three years left on his deal, will open up $3.75M this offseason.

Hagelin has recorded just two points (1G / 1A) in 13 games this season. With Hagelin taking a seat, the Penguins lines are totally shuffled and Josh Archibald will draw into the lineup.
