Alumni
Caps Alumni Jersey Auction
Monumental Sports and Entertainment Foundation auctioned off the jerseys worn by players during Tuesday’s Capitals Alumni Summer Classic game at Kettler.
The results:
- Peter Bondra – $500
- Mike Knuble – $425
- T.J. Oshie – $425 (obviously, Oshie didn’t play)
- Nicklas Backstrom – $325 (I don’t think he played either)
- Olaf Kolzig – $300
- Craig Laughlin – $275
- Bryan Helmer – $250
- Alan May – $250
- Dennis Maruk – $225
- Yvon Labre – $200
- Sylvain Cote – $200
- Rod Langway – $200
- Nelson Burton – $200
- Dave Parro – $200
- Clint Malarchuk – $200
- Brent Johnson – $200
Unfortunately, many didn’t sell, including the jerseys of Matt Bradley, Kelly Miller, and John Druce. Our hunch is this has more to do with fewer Caps fans paying attention to these sort of things this time of year than other times. See the complete list of results here.
This is on top of quite a bit of other money raised, including bids to actually play in the alumni game.
"Oh. My. Goodness."@JoeBpxp and @WaltonCaps were at a loss for words following @Laughlin18's game-winner. https://t.co/DDbYL65cyf pic.twitter.com/cHEfb1sZJa
