kontrakt förnyat: Brynäs IF bästa spelare har skrivit på ett tvåårskontrakt

The 2018 Stanley Cup champion is headed back to Sweden’s SHL for the first time in just about a decade as he has signed a five-year contract with Brynäs IF. Djoos has spent the last three seasons with two teams at the top level of hockey in Switzerland.

“I have had this idea for a long time, but the situation now is good for me and the feeling around the association feels extremely interesting,” Djoos said on the team’s official website as translated via Google Translate. “While building something good, I am also at the right age to be able to contribute properly. I want to move forward and see this as the right step to develop even more, hopefully I have my best hockey years ahead of me here in Brynäs.”

Djoos played in 22 games during Washington’s successful run to the franchise’s first Stanley Cup. The Capitals’ 2012 seventh-round draft selection played 110 total games for the Capitals and 173 games for the American Hockey League’s Hershey Bears over five years.
