Capitals to host Game Four watch party at Capital One Arena

During the Capitals’ historic 2018 Stanley Cup run, one of the most popular events outside of the games themselves were the viewing parties that the team hosted at Capital One Arena when the Caps were on the road.

Renaud Lavoie, a reporter for TVA Sports, asked NHL Deputy Commissioner if there would be any action taken.

The Columbus Blue Jackets are just one win away from advancing to the second round of the playoffs for the first time in franchise history. And they might do it in a sweep against the heavily-favored, record-setting, Presidents’ Trophy-winning Tampa Bay Lightning.

That’s right. The top-seeded Lightning, who were the highest-scoring team in the NHL during the regular season, might fall to wild-card team Columbus after being outscored 12-5 so far in the first-round series.
