Pep Rally in Ballston for Playoff-Bound Caps

The Capitals are again headed for the playoffs, and to celebrate the team is holding a pep rally at its practice facility in Ballston.

From 10:00 this morning until the end of the team’s practice session, fans are encouraged to come to the Kettler Capitals Iceplex (627 North Glebe Road) to “Rock the Red” and show their support. Caps announcer Wes Johnson will be there to pump up the crowd, and 106.7 The Fan’s Mike Wise Show will be broadcasting live.

There will also be t-shirt giveaways and an appearance by Slapshot, the team’s avian mascot.

The Capitals will face off against the New York Rangers tomorrow at Verizon Center, the first game of the first round of the playoffs.
