Friday afternoon was supposed to be a rare opportunity for friends and family of Capitals players to skate outdoors on the newly constructed rink at Navy–Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. Instead, a powerful wind storm forced the cancellation of activities in Annapolis, forcing the team to improvise.
The Capitals hosted the family skate at their practice facility, Kettler Capitals Iceplex.
Here were our ten favorite moments.
We all know TJ Oshie is great with kids.
He demonstrates that all the time with his own children, just as he did this morning when his daughters videobombed his interview in the cutest way ever.
During the Caps morning skate for the Stadium Series, Oshie showed his love for kids again by helping a little kid wearing a homemade Oshie cape “fly” around the ice.

The morning after their 1-0 shutout against the Detroit Red Wings, the Caps hosted a family skate after practice. The players were able to bring their little ones onto the ice for some quality ice time.
Such as Evgeny Kuznetsov, who pulled his full-grown man child Alex Ovechkin, around the rink in a boy’s sled.
