Krygier played a season and a half in Anaheim before he was re-acquired by the Capitals during the 1995-1996 National Hockey League season.
Krygier played two seasons with the Orlando Solar Bears of the International Hockey League before retiring from active play. The goal was controversial because of the possibility that the Capitals had iced the puck and a Sabre had touched it behind the goal line, but play was not whistled down.
