Halloween is just a few days away, and in the true spirit of the holiday, the Caps arrived at their practice rink at Kettler Capitals Iceplex this morning to a very unusual and spooky sight: Fog on the ice.

Check this out.

The fog was due to the humidity from the current rainstorm passing through the area. According to TJ Oshie, “It looks like Youngblood out here.” 

Oshie was referring to the 1986 movie Youngblood (starring Robe Lowe and Patrick Swayze), about a young star hockey prospect trying to prove himself to professional scouts, while also having to prove he can fight when challenged.

A similar situation took place at the Hershey Park Arena last month.

Let’s hope tonight’s game is the opposite of this situation: Not spooky for the Caps at all.
