Capitals Sign Fehervary to Seven-Year $42M Extension
The Washington Capitals have signed defenseman Martin Fehervary to a seven-year, $42 million contract extension, averaging $6 million annually, which will begin in the 2026-27 season and run through 2032-33. Fehervary, a key component of the Capitals' young and competitive defense, recorded career highs with 25 points in 81 games during the 2024-25 season before a meniscus injury ended his campaign early. Known for his skating speed and physical play, he leads the Capitals in hits since becoming a full-time player in 2021-22 and ranks highly among NHL defensemen in blocked shots and ice time. The extension locks up a crucial part of Washington’s defensive core alongside players like John Carlson and Jakob Chychrun, as the team invests heavily in maintaining a strong blue line for the future. Capitals GM Chris Patrick praised Fehervary's conditioning, competitiveness, and team-first attitude, emphasizing his importance to the franchise's long-term plans. Despite the injury, Fehervary is progressing well in recovery and on track for offseason training ahead of the next season.
