For those of you who are fans of hockey players with wicked salad, I have some exciting news to share.
Thursday, the Washington Capitals announced that the team will be giving away a Carl Hagelin bobblehead and Capitals t-shirt to all fans who donate blood at their blood drive on Saturday, February 1 from 7 AM to 5 PM.
And this is a bobblehead you’re going to want to have in your collection.
Washington Capitals fans have long clamored for a tandem Joe Beninati and Craig Laughlin bobblehead. And Thursday, during the Capitals’ late game against the Edmonton Oilers, the longtime NBC Sports Washington commentators announced one had finally been made.
You guys, now you can have a Joe B Suit Of The Night every night at your household.
Inova Blood Donor Services held a blood drive at MedStar Capitals Iceplex on Saturday morning. Donors who gave blood received a Nick Jensen Capitals bobblehead.
Fans also got an opportunity to get autographs and take photos with Nick Jensen himself, who made a surprise appearance thrilling Capitals fans who were there.
The Washington Capitals have been on a roll with bobbleheads this season. In August, we got Dmitry Orlov, our favorite unsung Russian defenseman who wasn’t even under contract with the team at the time. On November 8, we had the most consequential election of our time, as Braden Holtby beat out two other candidates to be immortalized in resin. A little while later, the Capitals released a divinely inspired Alex Ovechkin bobblehead.
On Friday morning, the Caps unveiled their latest creation: Lars Eller, depicted in the most glorious form of artwork, the bobblehead.

Inova Blood Donor Services holds blood drives at Kettler Capitals Iceplex every few months. Their next event is scheduled for Saturday, August 6 from 7AM to 5PM. This time around they will be giving away Dmitry Orlov bobbleheads and a Capitals t-shirt to anyone who donates blood.
For those who interested, you can sign up for an appointment here. Not only will you help save a life, but you’ll also go home with a collectible of the Caps’ best Russian defenseman.

RMNB’s been busy working on a special project, so we missed the Inova Blood Drive at Kettler Capitals Iceplex. Every few months, Inova holds a blood drive at the Caps practice rink and gives away bobbleheads and shirseys of certain Caps players. This past Saturday it was Joel Ward.
Unfortunately, the Wardo bobble heads got stuck in customs, but donators wound up getting a more special gift: meeting The Big Cheese himself. Ward signed autographs, took photos, and complimented people on their t-shirts.
And, of course, he donated blood.

In a month and a half, we’ll officially be in the hockey dead zone. There’ll be a new Stanley Cup Champion (either Jeff Schultz or Henrik Lundqvist). The draft will be over, as will development camp. Most free agents will have found their new teams.
But right smack dab in the middle of the most boring part of the year, Inova Blood Services will be hosting a blood drive at Kettler Capitals Iceplex on Saturday, July 26th from 7am to 5pm. For those who schedule an appointment and donate blood (do it here), you’ll receive a bobblehead and a Capitals t-shirt.
This is no ordinary bobblehead. This is The Big Cheese himself, Joel Ward. And it may very well be the most impeccably made ceramic figurine I have ever seen (please forgive me, Joel Rechlicz Bobblefist).
Just take a look at these pics.

On March 23rd, Inova Blood Donor Services is holding another blood drive at Kettler Capitals Iceplex. If you’ve never considered donating blood before, this might be the perfect time to do it. Why? Because the giveaway is awesome. Anyone who donates blood will receive an Olie Kolzig bobblehead. And I’m talking a realistic Kolzig bobblehead, not this weird, green-faced alien one I got 15 years ago which scares little children.
So let’s recap. Sign up today, save a life, and get some awesome Caps memorabilia for free in the process. Good deal.
