A winter storm dropped four-plus inches of snow in the DC area over the weekend.
Several Capitals stars took advantage of the winter wonderland, taking their adorable families outside to play in the slushy snow.

Winter Storm Toby dropped nearly a foot of snow in the Washington DC suburbs Tuesday and Wednesday, closing schools and causing havoc around the area. It also presented a peculiar site at Nationals Park – home of DC’s Major League Baseball team.
Despite MLB Spring Training beginning to wrap up and Tuesday marking the first day of spring, Nats Park was covered in snow.

A night after winning 3-0 in front of a sold-out crowd, the Charlotte Checkers played the Bridgeport Sound Tigers in an empty arena.
Due to an impending snowstorm that brought four inches of snow to the Charlotte area, the Checkers moved their game up to 5 PM. The organization also decided to close the doors of Bojangles’ Coliseum as North Carolina was put under a state of emergency.

Friday afternoon, Washington DC is slated to be in the path of a major snowstorm, which could dump up to 20 or 30 inches of snow this weekend. Today, Metro went an extraordinary route, deciding to shutter its Metrorail services all weekend – beginning at 11pm Friday.
The Caps and Ducks were scheduled to play at 7pm. Not anymore.
The NHL has opted not to cancel the game, but move the start time up to 5pm. The game will still go on. It appears that’s so the Ducks can have a better chance of flying out of the area before DC becomes a giant igloo.
