Capitals visit Trump in the Oval Office
The Washington Capitals visited President Donald Trump in the Oval Office today. The Capitals went on a 45 minute tour of the White House before the meeting. Each player then had a chance for one on one photos with the President.
The Capitals won the Stanley Cup last June and went to celebrate their victory. This was a private event but NBC Sports Washington did get some clips. For more on that story go Here
