Nicklas Backstrom has put his McLean home on the market for $15 million, per Fairfax County property records and local real estate listings.
Why it matters: The longtime Capitals player stepped back from the ice in 2023 due to a hip injury, and there's been speculation that he could retire once his contract is up at the end of this season.
State of play: The house has seven bedrooms, nine-and-a-half baths, and over 17,000 square feet of living space, per the listing, which UrbanTurf first reported.
Plus: An elevator, five fireplaces, a sauna and steam room, a theater, a gym, wine storage and a pool.
The intrigue: If you buy Backstrom's home, you could be neighbors with his buddy and fellow Capitals longtimer Alex Ovechkin.
