The Capitals had some fun hosting a home game the night before Thanksgiving, with a series of themed games during stoppage time. Even with a hat trickĀ from Alex Ovechkin, the highlight of the night might just be the Mite on Ice contest from the 2nd intermission, featuring Mites in Turkey costumes. It’s exactly as fabulous as that sounds, as the kids from Southern Maryland get into the Turkey Day spirit. Check out some of the video from social media below :
