Nastya Ovechkina sat in the first few rows of Wells Fargo Center Wednesday as the Capitals took on the Philadelphia Flyers for the first time this season.
During the game, Nastya got her first experience with Gritty and she could not stop laughing.

Gritty can be seen jumping and jiving, smooching and patting. At the end of his routine, the lovable mascot turns around and soaks in the applause from his adoring crowd.
The orange furry ball of love was also featured on NBCSN doing some karate during intermission. Check out Gritty breaking those boards at an absolutely insane pace.

He’s got moves on moves.
Thank you, Gritty, for existing. You bring us all so much joy. Though know, I am not sorry for hating your favorite hockey team. I hope we can still be friends.
