Aliaksei Protas changes jersey number to 21
Washington Capitals forward Aliaksei Protas is ditching his number 59 and will be the newest number 21 in DC. The change is now shown on the Capitals’ official roster.
Garnet Hathaway wore the digits in DC for the past four seasons, but left the team after a trade deadline deal to the Boston Bruins in February. Over the offseason, Hathaway signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Philadelphia Flyers, inking a two-year deal worth $2.375 million a season.
