CapFriendly officially closed its doors today after being acquired by the Washington Capitals, a change that was anticipated following the busy draft and free agency period.
Elliotte Friedman had announced this acquisition without specifying the exact date of closure.
Each morning, many continued to check CapFriendly's availability, hoping for an extension that never came. When CapFriendly finally ceased its public services, redirecting users to a thank-you page, it marked the end of an era for those accustomed to its intuitive interface.
PuckPedia now appears to be stepping in as an alternative reference, providing similar contract information for NHL teams like the Montreal Canadiens.
