John Carlson was recently a guest on Scott Van Pelt’s podcast and he told one heck of a story about Alex Ovechkin.
During a past road trip, Carlson brought the team over to one of his relative’s houses for a team dinner. Ovechkin and his, uh, juvenile palate appears to have offended Carlson’s aunt.

Tom Wilson was featured on a Zoom call with the Capitals on Thursday and a special guest made a cameo during the interview.
Former roommate Michael Latta, who is back home after spending the season in the SHL (Sweden), joined to “roast” Wilson on past ridiculous Instagram photos. The segment was less a roast, however, and more two old buds who love each other catching up.
The most interesting part of the call was the revelation that Tom Wilson used to eat ketchup sandwiches. Latta made the revelation after a screenshot was shown on the call of the two roommates’ most special moment together on HBO’s 24/7: their empty refrigerator save for the 3-for-1 ketchup deal they took advantage of at Costo.
“Willy likes his deals. He’s cheap,” Latta said. “Willy makes ketchup sandwiches a lot, so he needs a lot. Just ketchup (on two pieces of bread). That sicko.”
Michael Latta hasn’t been roommates with Tom Wilson for over a year, but he’s still out there searching for the best ketchup deals.
On Wednesday, Latta posted an Instagram story from his “annual” Costco trip.
He was disappointed by the price of ketchup.

Two years ago, former Caps roomies Tom Wilson and Michael Latta gave a ridiculous tour of their apartment for EPIX’s The Road to the Winter Classic. It became an internet phenomenon. The tour included a look inside Wilson and Latta’s mostly empty refrigerator, which included three bottles of Heinz Ketchup.
Since then, the two players have become synonymous with ketchup. Last year, Caps fans baked ketchup cookies for Wilson and Latta. Another, reader/regular commenter Gene got a ketchup bottle signed by Michael Latta at an autograph signing.
On Saturday, Gene and his adorable son got Wilson to autograph it too, which now gives the family possession of what I’m guessing is the first and last Caps roomie, dually signed ketchup bottle.

A monumental event took place in Northern Virginia’s Fair Oaks Mall and it ain’t Auntie Anne’s pretzel bites. Michael Latta signed a ketchup bottle.
This is an RMNB RED ALERT, PEOPLE. WE’RE AT DEFCON CATSUP.

We have one last story from the Caps season ticket holder party Thursday and it’s, well, delicious.
Like J.R., Caps fans Jenn P. and her cousin Steph came to the amusement park on a mission. Just it wasn’t for tattoos. It was to deliver some amazing baked goods to two of their favorite players: Caps roomies Tom Wilson and Michael Latta.
I’ll let Jenn and Steph explain.
Last year, Tom Wilson and Michael Latta were the best part of EPIX’s Road To The Winter Classic. One reason why was the lack of actual food in the Caps roomies’ refrigerator.
