Behind the scenes of the Laughlin Family Foundation’s third annual golf tournament

Longtime Washington Capitals announcer Craig Laughlin had local sports celebrities traveling to Maryland for a good cause, Monday.

The Laughlin Family Foundation held its third annual celebrity golf tournament at the Crofton Country Club. The event allowed Capitals fans the opportunity to rub elbows or complete a round of golf with some of the biggest sports stars and personalities in the area. It also raised nearly a quarter million dollars ($220,000) for rare cancer research – the most in the foundation’s history.

Once anyone experiences a Laughlin event for the first time, it’s difficult to not return in future years. I’ll do my best to explain why.

TJ Oshie had an incredible outfit for a Morgan Wallen concert

TJ Oshie is an American hero and this is another reason why.

On Saturday night, Oshie attended the Morgan Wallen concert at Fedex Field with his wife Lauren and extended family. Nicklas Backstrom, John Carlson, and Nick Jensen joined the Oshies at the show with their significant others.

But I want to focus on Oshie’s lewk. Not only did Teej enthusiastically fit the vibe of the concert, but he made an iconic fashion statement that may or may not have been a partial tribute to Larry The Cable Guy and Woody from Toy Story.

TJ Oshie pens letter in support of upholding Warroad High School’s Native American logo and nickname

Minnesota lawmakers are considering a bill that would prevent state schools from using Native American names, symbols, or imagery as their mascots or team nicknames. One of the schools that would be impacted by that bill passing is Warroad High School.

The Warroad Warriors use an image of a Native American as their primary logo for their sports teams. Washington Capitals forward TJ Oshie is an alumnus of the school and penned a letter on behalf of the school district advocating that Warroad be able to keep both its name and logo despite the proposed legislation.

Oshie, who is over a quarter Ojibwe (Chippewa), says that the city of Warroad and playing for the Warriors helped further connect him with his Native American heritage.

At the Capitals’ breakdown day, TJ Oshie revealed that he had a procedure to address his lingering back injury. The procedure was performed on Friday following the conclusion of the Caps’ season.

“I did a procedure yesterday,” Oshie said. “Double ablation, I guess it’s called.

“Basically, relieving the pain in the two levels, or one level on both sides that has given me problems in the past,” Oshie explained. “[It’s] not necessarily considered surgery, because I hopped up and drove home. Extremely minor. It was quick. It was like, five minutes.. from start time to start finish. I don’t think it’s simple, but to me, it seemed like it was just quick.”
