Nicklas Backstrom, arguably one of the best professional hockey players of the last 20 years, is putting his Virginia home on the market, UrbanTurf has learned. 

The center for the Washington Capitals is listing the 16,000 square-foot McLean home for just south of $15 million with Compass. Backstrom purchased the home just after it was built in 2021 for $8.5 million. 

The seven-bedroom home features a number of amenities that come with a home carrying a price tag of this size, including a home gym and spa, theater, elevator and outdoor pool and firepit. 

Backstrom announced in 2023 that he was stepping away from professional hockey to focus on his health. He joins a list of DC athletes that have put their homes on the market in recent years. Here are a few others:
