Hi Caps fans, a little background is this picture was printed in the Washington Post and much to my family’s surprise and delight we are in the background cheering on the glass (me being in the red shirt banging on the glass). We were able to reach out directly to the photographer and he sent us the photo. I have had this picture hanging in my room and now office for many many years now and luckily was able to get it signed by Ovi last night.
I would greatly appreciate any and all help in figuring out what game this was from. From what I can tell it is somewhere around 2007-2009 based on my age and that we are playing the Tampa Bay Lightning. I have found a few good sites to help but the full stats are behind a paywall so I figured I would see if the community knew, plus I just want to share the pic 🙂 Thanks in advance!

Tampa Bay according to the players in the bench, so that should limit things slightly.

I Believe this is the goal. This is the only home goal against TB where he celebrated near the Amtrak boards in your date range.
