Quick Glance: Talks Cease on Bringing Capitals and Wizards to Virginia
- Negotiations to lure the NHL's Washington Capitals and the NBA's Washington Wizards to Northern Virginia have officially ended, as the proposal to create a development district with a new arena for the teams will not move forward, as announced by the city of Alexandria on Wednesday.
- Virginia's House speaker also confirmed that Ted Leonsis, majority owner of the teams, is no longer considering relocating them from the District of Columbia.
- The city expressed disappointment in the outcome, emphasizing that they negotiated a framework for this opportunity in good faith and participated in the process in Richmond to preserve their integrity.
- Governor Youngkin and Leonsis announced in December at a public event that they had reached an understanding on the outlines of a plan calling for a new $2 billion development district with a new arena in Alexandria, just a few miles from where the teams currently play.

Quick Glance: Capitals’ Tom Wilson facing potential lengthy suspension for high stick
- Washington Capitals winger Tom Wilson is facing the possibility of a lengthy suspension after being offered an in-person hearing by the NHL’s department of player safety on Thursday for high-sticking Toronto Maple Leafs forward Noah Gregor. Wilson is no stranger to the NHL’s supplementary discipline process, having been suspended five times and fined an addition three times throughout his career. That included a 15-month stretch in 2017 and 2018 where Wilson had multiple in-person meetings with George Parros, the league’s senior vice president of player safety, to discuss curbing behavior that saw him suspended on four separate occasions and sit out three playoff games, 18 regular-season games and two preseason games.
- The in-person hearing gives the department of player safety the ability to suspend Wilson for six games or more under the terms of the league’s collective bargaining agreement. It wasn’t immediately clear if Wilson planned to travel to the league’s head office in New York to take them up on the offer or participate remotely via video call. The hearing hasn’t yet been scheduled. The 29-year-old’s most recent suspension was a seven-game ban in March 2021 for a dangerous hit that sent a defenseman to the hospital. He was also fined $5,000 in May 2021 for punching a forward in the back of the head while he was lying face down on the ice — a decision that prompted the Rangers to put out a statement calling for Parros to lose his job.
