Hi, my name is Ian Oland. I’m driving this here Capitals bandwagon. Over the last few weeks, we’ve travelled all over North America, picking up many new friends. It’s been quiet lately, but with our boys owning a commanding 3-1 lead over rival Philadelphia, it’s time to whip the oxen and get back on Lord Stanley’s trail.
Tonight, we’re traveling to an undisclosed location to pick up former Law & Order: SVU star Christopher Meloni. Ah, Detective Stabler.
Meloni is a long-time hockey fan who’s had many allegiances.
He’s gone to Los Angeles Kings games.

He’s openly rooted for the New York Rangers.
#NHL Rangers rock!

But unfortunately for Mr. Meloni, both of those teams are down 3-1 in their respective series. So the 55-year-old actor, originally born in Washington, DC, found his way back home tonight.
