Happy One Year Anniversary Cap Fans
4 Caps:
Today marks the one year anniversary of the Caps winning the Stanley Cup. That day is one of the greatest days of my life and one I will always remember. I have been a Caps fan from the beginning in 1974 and have been a season ticket holder for 30 some years. I have gone through all the anguishing playoff losses. I just read today the Caps have lost six playoff series after being up 3 games to 1 the most of any team. I can still vividly recall 2010 when the Caps were up 3 to 1 over Montreal but then lost the last 3 games. This was after winning the President’s trophy with 121 points. I was at the epic 4 OT loss to the Islanders back in I believe 1988. So to see them win the Cup last season was just unbelievable. My only regret is that I was not there in Vegas to experience it live. Tonight NBCSW is replaying game 5 and I will be watching it and reliving the moment. Can’t wait.

I was travelling overseas and on the show floor working when we won it last season. Aside from the highlights, I haven't watched the game. After listening to the Capitals podcasst where they were casting and rewatching the game, I plan on doing the same when I get back from this trip.
4 Caps:
I definitely recommend watching the replay. Even though you know the result you will get chills when the game ends. I have watched the replay several times, it never gets old watching Ovie get the Cup.

Good memory lane story, 4Caps!
I’ve been a fan from the beginning as well!
Something I’ll never forget, either !
