If the Caps win today in game six, not only will they advance to the second round of the playoffs, but they’ll also close Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum forever. Next year, the Islanders are moving to Brooklyn, NY, to play in the Barclays Center.

When CSN Washington’s Chuck Gormley asked Caps captain Alex Ovechkin about this possibility on Friday, he strayed from the team’s message that it was just another game.

So great. Later, Gormley tweeted and said Ovechkin was joking.

I wouldn’t be joking. That’s a great collectible (and or thing you can light on fire in celebration).
