Liza Berg – Nicklas Backstrom
Here is another Swedish player killing it in the NHL. Nicklas Backstrom has made a name for himself as the center of the Washington Capitals. Did you know that he was the fourth overall pick of the 2006 NHL Draft? It looks like his love life has been doing just as well. The two of them are engaged to be married. Even though they have yet to exchange vows, they have three kids and live tighter in Arlington, Virginia.
Julianne Hough – Brooks Laich
Indeed, they have already broken it off, but we still think that Brooks Laich and Julianne Hough deserve a spot on our list. Now retired, it is worth looking back at the NHL career of the athlete. For some time, he looked happy together with the dancer. He met the Dancing with the Stars icon through a mutual friend in 2014. A year after that, they were engaged to be married. In 2017, the two of them exchanged vows. Sadly, things ended when she filed for divorce back in November 2020.
