The Washington Capitals touched down in Las Vegas Saturday afternoon. First they held a crazy practice at Kettler Ice Plex, got cheered on by fans, and walked a runway to their cars. We have pictures!

We’re all pretty darn excited- even Coach Trotz showed he is a central part of the team with his “hot lap.”

Saturday they tried to run drills, but really it was all about the fans and the community celebrating this next step! More here.
Here are some of our favorite photos from Saturday practice:
