The NHL-leading Washington Capitals have signed goaltender Logan Thompson to a six-year contract extension worth $35.1 million.

Really happy to be here for many more years to come,” Logan Thompson said. “I’ve loved my time here and just thankful for the opportunity that the Capitals gave me.”

Logan Thompson knew that leaving the Vegas Golden Knights behind wouldn't be easy, but it was a necessary step to push his career forward. It landed him with the Washington Capitals, who have proven to be the perfect fit — and will now remain home for the long haul.
