Ivan Miroshnichenko hopes to come back with the Washington Capitals

Ivan Miroshnichenko, the 19-year-old Russian forward, is gearing up for his first NHL training camp with the Washington Capitals in September, aiming to secure a spot on the opening night roster.

Despite acknowledging the challenge of competing against seasoned veterans, he remains determined to achieve his goal.

Once projected as a top-five pick in the 2022 NHL Draft, Miroshnichenko's aspirations were put on hold when he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in February 2022.

Capitals assistant general manager, Ross Mahoney, met him during his cancer treatments in Germany, witnessing his physical and emotional struggle. However, the determined young player bounced back impressively, and after three months of treatments, he regained his health and strength, gaining more weight than he had lost.

Returning to competitive hockey, he showcased his skills in various Russian leagues before signing a three-year entry-level contract with the Washington Capitals on May 1.

Miroshnichenko's resilience and determination to pursue his dream of playing in the NHL have been truly inspiring. He recognizes that adapting to North American hockey and life will take time, but is already preparing by working with an English tutor.
