Ah this is a tough one. A Capitals legend for sure. From the Capitals:
“The Washington Capitals have acquired a conditional first-round pick in either the 2026 NHL Draft or the 2027 NHL Draft and a third-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft from the Anaheim Ducks for defenseman John Carlson.”
“The Washington Capitals unveiled today a Cherry Blossom specialty jersey that will be auctioned off by Monumental Sports & Entertainment (MSE) Foundation after Capitals players wear it during arrivals on D.C. Cherry Blossom Night presented by Vanda Pharmaceuticals on March 18.
The specialty jersey, designed by Washington, D.C.,-based artist Taylor Kampa Olson of TKO Paintings, features the classic Capitol Building logo with blossoms bursting around it to capture the spirit of the District’s unique springtime bloom when the blossoms blanket the city. Earlier today, the National Park Service announced that this year’s peak bloom is expected to take place between March 29 and April 1.
A full team set of the Cherry Blossom specialty jerseys autographed by Capitals players, as well as autographed limited-edition Capitals-branded Cherry Blossom pucks and a painting from TKO of Capitals forward Tom Wilson signed by Wilson, will be auctioned off by MSE Foundation, with proceeds benefiting MSE Foundation. The auction will open at washcaps.com/CherryBlossomAuction on March 18 at noon and run through 3 p.m. on March 27.
TKO also helped design a wide assortment of Capitals-branded Cherry Blossom merchandise, including men’s and women’s apparel, headwear and accessories, that are available at the Team Stores at Capital One Arena and MedStar Capitals Iceplex and online at shopmonumentalsports.com.”
