Washington Capitals Rope of the Game
This season Coach Peter Laviolette started a post-win tradition in which the Caps’ ‘player of the game’ is given a “I won’t let go” rope, then squeezes a hand dynamometer as the previous winner takes a photo with a Polaroid camera. Here are the winners.
- 2021/2022: Viking of the Game
- 2020/2021: Cobra Kai Headbands of the Game
- 2014/2015: Honest Abe Player of the Game
