Have you never heard of the NHL before? That was positively progressive for them. Just be glad it wasn't like... Finger 11 or something.

I was gonna make a kid rock joke but then I remembered that they just did that!

The best is the caps fans who still yell "OH" for the Orioles. Hell, they do it at Nats games too.

It's intended to sooth the nerves of the Russians on the Caps roster, who tend to get twitchy during the anthem as a result of their FSB programming.

Is it even possible to get a jersey with the Stanley Cup patch on it anymore? Only see Ovechkin jerseys online and I heard the team store was sold out.

I think they just sell jerseys, and patches, and you could get the patch put on.

The NHL needs more attention and if this is what they have to do I’m all for it. The VGK have raised the bar for how a team should put on a show and it owns

You've chosen wisely since the 2014 gmg was maybe the most boring game ever and game 1 of this series was one of the most exciting in league history.
