Christian Djoos may be on a different hockey team, but that doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate a big milestone in his life.
The 2018 Stanley Cup champion proposed to longtime girlfriend Ebba Ostlund on Thursday.
Ostlund said yes and showed off her engagement ring on Twitter.
You guys, the Djoos is no longer loose.
Former Capitals defenseman Christian Djoos will be staying in Anaheim.
Djoos’ signed a one-way contract on Wednesday worth $1 million. It’s a deduction of $250k from his 2019-20 salary.
Stanley Cup-winning defenseman Christian Djoos did not have a roster spot in defensively-challenged Washington, but in Anaheim, he’s having a career renaissance. The longtime Capital, who spent the vast majority of the 2019-20 season with AHL Hershey, was traded to the Anaheim Ducks at the February 24 trade deadline for journeyman forward Daniel Sprong.
Sunday night at Honda Center, Djoos scored his first goal for the Ducks, a clutch late-game tally that forced overtime while the Ducks had their goalie, Ryan Miller, pulled.
One late deal from the Caps on deadline day: Washington has traded defender Christian Djoos to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for AHL right-winger Daniel Sprong.

The Hershey Bears’ final game before the AHL All-Star break was a nailbiter.
Despite breaking the scoring deadlock during the second period with a goal from Liam O’Brien, the Bears surrendered two goals to Providence’s Peter Cehlarik in the third. Providence went on the penalty kill due to a cross-check from Jack Studnicka late in the third, and the Bears pulled goaltender Pheonix Copley to give a 6-on-4 advantage. With just 21.5 seconds left in the third, Philippe Maillet scored to bring the tally even at 2-2.
Providence could not solve Pheonix Copley through overtime, nor the shootout, with Copley turning aside both shooters he faced. Maillet scored on his shootout attempt, and Christian Djoos ended the game with second round winner.

TJ Oshie and Christian Djoos both missed Capitals practice on Monday.
Oshie has what Peter’s grandmother calls the good ol’ “north and south” while Djoos suffered an upper-body during Washington’s game Saturday against the Carolina Hurricanes.
The NHL has a bug going around, and now it’s hit the defense of the Washington Capitals. The team announced Friday that defenders Michal Kempny and Radko Gudas will not skate this morning and will be game-time decisions for tonight’s game against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
In case they cannot play, the team has called up defender Christian Djoos from the Hershey Bears.
