Caps Practice @ Kettler

Sarah and I decided to go out to the Kettler Capitals Ice Complex to catch the Saturday morning practice. This was the day after Alex Ovechkin scored his 60th goal of the season. Unfortunately Ovie wasn't skating today, and several of the higher profile stars only stayed on for a short time. But we enjoyed watching the rest of the guys having fun. And I got some good shots of them going through some light work.

Here are a few of the better ones.
