(By Cheryl Nichols)
Below, please find the video montage the Caps ran at Saturday's game, celebrating the Winter Classic.
Above, please find the most absurd part of that montage. I'm famous!
(Thanks to Cheryl Nichols and Reader Mike and everyone else who let me know about this.)

I was there for that, and the place erupted when this was played... and I think it was mostly because of your name. Or quote, at least. That was a great video. Thanks for posting the video.

Goat led a "Steinberg! Steinberg!" chant that lasted a good 12 minutes. Even the few Panthers fans in attendance were chanting along with us. The refs had to ask us to stop, because it was so loud, the players couldn't hear their whistles.
Or something like that.

I love the fake snow, trying to replace the actual heavy rain.

How does it feel to see your name in lights! Thanks for trekking out there with us and capturing the magic of the weekend!

Nice editing by the Caps. The first part of the quote (not included) was "Even if the league tilted the scales by giving those 20,000 tickets to the team,". That the Caps were able to sell all those tickets for a game 4 1/2 hours away was very impressive though.

Each team gets a block of tickets to use as they want to.

Remember, there are 2 teams in Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh is not even the good one.
