It was a good day for five lucky fans as they watched the Caps shut out Minnesota, 3-0, then headed downstairs to hang with defenseman Mike Green after the game. The Capitals held their annual Spring Puck Surprise fundraiser Sunday, taking $40 donations to benefit Caps’ charities in exchange for autographed pucks. Of the 455 pucks sold (with Hershey’s Kisses!), 450 were signed by Caps players, but five of them simply had a WINNER sticker on them.
The winners:
Jason Stein, of St. Mary’s County, Md.
Level of excitement for meeting Mike Green: 9 or 10 out of 10.
Kevin Dalmut, of Springfield, Va.
Excitement level: 52/10 (get it? 52?)
Barbra Eagan, of Baltimore.
Excitement level: 10/10
Keith Lamberg, of Chicago, who flew in for the weekend to watch the Caps and proud owner of the Caps Canine Calendar which features Green.
Excitement level: 11/10
Christiane Simmons, 15, of Waldorf, Md.
Excitement level: 100/10. She wins for being the most excited.
