The morning after their 1-0 shutout against the Detroit Red Wings, the Caps hosted a family skate after practice. The players were able to bring their little ones onto the ice for some quality ice time.
Such as Evgeny Kuznetsov, who pulled his full-grown man child Alex Ovechkin, around the rink in a boy’s sled.
This is ridiculous.

Naturally, Nate Schmidt is in the middle of the mess making sure the kids are happy. Looks like he’s with little Lyla Oshie, while her dad takes it easy after his injury.
