I really hope not, the whole Vegas thing is ruining the great story of their success. Drop the puck and play. |

What about the Foo Fighters? Dave Grohl is good to his DC roots. |

PP here. I thought I would be so disgusted with the pregame revelry that I would turn it off, but I had to keep watching. I know people who grew up constructing their own skating/hockey rinks by hand every winter, equipped with overhead lighting for evening, and skated in their backyard from December to March. The same people who also grew up with easy access to multiple frozen ponds for the same use. They take their hockey seriously, it is literally part of their culture, they are not bandwagon or "in your face"; they are fans of the "Original Six" NHL teams from the 1920's (NOT 1974). But they loved that Vegas embraced who they are, and did well by it. They are a great team. Real sports fans do not criticize other people's teams, they embrace their own team (and this is the important part)..... win or lose. They also do not gloat or claim to be a "rain or shine" fan, when it is clearly not the case. It is what it is. That venue was about 100% Vegas fans last night. |

There does not need to be a pre-game production like Vegas has. Let Vegas do Vegas.
Let the Caps do the Caps. I would love to see them honor some Wounded Warriors or law enforcement. Forget the drama. What the Caps have done all season has been working. Just do it. |

On one hand, I hope the Caps keep up tradition with the same National Anthem singers and little spectacle unlike Vegas.
On the other hand, this is a big deal and it'd nice to have some DC native bands perform. |

I hope they keep it simple and play. This is not a beauty/show contest. |

So the pre-show free concert is going to be Sting and Shaggy.
When the alerts started popping up on everyone's phones throughout the office, there were some audible groans. |
