Mascot Dodgeball at the Caps Game! (Photos)

Mascot hockey is no more, at least this year. The Caps decided to try something new on Kids Day at Verizon Center. Several mascots suited up for a No Holds Barred game of dodgeball during the second intermission Saturday. The stakes got even higher late in the game as each one was blindfolded.

Though we witnessed and photographed the entire event, we’re not sure who won.

: Here they come!

: Louie, from the St. Louis Blues.

: Mascot dodgeball!

: Bernie the St. Bernard, from the Colorado Avalanche.

: Louis gets hit again.

: Louie was the absolute worst mascot dodgeball player ever.

: Slapshot throws a ball at someone. Probably Louie.

: Screech is mad about something.
