Kuznetsov considers NHL return at 33 with two teams in pursuit

Evgeny Kuznetsov, the former star center for the Washington Capitals, is on the verge of a significant return to the NHL after a year away from the league. At 33 years old, Kuznetsov is weighing his options as he navigates his future, with two teams reportedly vying for his services.

The latest update came from Sammi Silber of The Hockey News, who reported on Friday that Kuznetsov is nearing a decision about where he will play next season. His agent has indicated that discussions are progressing, and a final choice could be imminent.

Kuznetsov’s journey back to North America has garnered attention, not only for his past accomplishments with the Capitals but also for the potential impact he could have on whichever team secures his talents. As a key player during his tenure in Washington, Kuznetsov helped lead the Capitals to their first Stanley Cup in 2018, leaving a legacy that many fans remember fondly.

With the NHL season fast approaching, the clock is ticking for Kuznetsov to finalize his decision. The interest from multiple teams suggests that there is still a demand for his skills on the ice, and it remains to be seen where he will land as he embarks on this new chapter in his career.
