The mites on ice played a short game during the second intermission of the Washington Capitals’ 5-2 win over the St. Louis Blues.
When one lucky mite scored a goal, he celebrated in classic Capitals fashion: an awesome bird walk celly.
Here’s another adorable look.

The tiny hockey player admitted afterward in an interview that his favorite player is Kuzy.
During his mite of the night he says his fave player is @Kuzya92 and no one was surprised. And they did show his tribute celly. #ALLCAPS

The NHL’s official Twitter account posted the highlight of the kid’s celly back-to-back with Kuzy’s. “It’s pretty much like looking in a mirror, a small mirror, for @Kuzya92… right?”
