ovechkin-ugly-christmas-sweater

Love ugly Christmas sweaters and cheesy music videos? This video will make you happy. The Washington Capitals have recorded a music video for Jingle Bells to wish you guys happy holidays. It features Caps captain Alex Ovechkin on the bells, Brooks Laich on the drums, Joel Ward on an inflatable pink saxophone, Troy Brouwer on bass, Aaron Volpatti on the guitar, Nicklas Backstrom on the tambourine, John Erskine on a pre-k piano, Tom Wilson on the ukulele, and– of course– Mike Green rocking the cowbell.

You have to see this.

The ending without the soundtrack is great, but obviously the best part is Ovechkin accidentally breaks his instrument for shaking it too hard. Of course he does.

Outtakes

Ovechkin has no idea how to sing Jingle Bells.
