The Washington Capitals have announced a two-year contract extension for center Nic Dowd, valued at $3 million per season. Dowd, currently in the last year of his previous contract, has achieved career highs this season, scoring 14 goals and totaling 27 points. However, his value goes beyond statistics, as he plays a crucial role on the team, especially in defense and leadership. General Manager Chris Patrick highlighted Dowd's reliability and essential contribution to the team's depth at center, particularly regarding defensive responsibilities against top opponents.
During his time in Washington, Nic has proven to be a consistent and reliable two-way player who can be trusted in all situations.
This guy is someone that eats the most difficult minutes in the league. Starts in the defensive zone constantly so that [Alex Ovechkin] can start in the offensive zone.
