TJ Oshie has great quote about his father with Alzheimer’s
TJ Oshie had a great quote on Thursday night after his Washington Capitals won their first Stanley Cup.
Oshie spoke with reporters and noted that his dad, who has Alzheimer’s disease, doesn’t remember much, but he said that this would stick with him.
“He was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and he doesn’t remember a lot of stuff, but you bet your a– he’s going to remember this one,” Oshie said.
Oshie was also interviewed by NBC Sports’ Jeremy Roenick and gave a cleaner version of the quote.
