    The Capitals’ illustrious tradition of performing Cup stands continued during the Stanley Cup’s visit to Nicklas Backstrom’s hometown of Gävle.

    Thus far, this sacred ritual has included a Conn Smythe winner, a late night talk show host, a 7’1” referee, Alan May, and nearly every Capitals player and staff member.

    We can now include on this list Nicklas Backstrom’s mother, Catrin Backstrom.

    Catrin’s caption reads, “Grandma in the Stanley Cup 🏆😁”

    Catrin has been busy posting to Instagram since her son won the Stanley Cup.

    Highlights include:
