Washington Capitals Cobra Kai Headbands of the Game
By Brandon Alter and Ben Sumner
This season, head coach Peter Laviolette introduced the Cobra Kai headbands of the game, given out to players after each win for the best offensive performance and best defensive performance in the game. Cobra Kai is a television series on Netflix based on the original Karate Kid movies. Laviolette said he watched the show last year when hockey was on a break.
The white headband is from Miyagi-Do, which stresses defense, while the black headband is from the Cobra Kai Dojo, which stresses offense. The winners after each game are selected by the previous winners. The Caps don’t always announce the winners after each game but we’ll do our best to keep this up to date.
