The first topic discusses Alex Ovechkin’s surprise and excitement upon the return of the black Screaming Eagle jersey, a design he has long supported. The second topic delves into Ovechkin’s fondness for the jersey and his history of advocating for its return. The third topic highlights Ovechkin’s success while wearing the black Reverse Retro 2.0 jersey and the announcement of its return for six games during the Capitals’ 50th-anniversary campaign in 2024-25. Lastly, the meaningful surprise coinciding with Ovechkin’s 39th birthday adds an extra layer of joy and celebration to the occasion. Additionally, the contract extension of Sidney Crosby with the Pittsburgh Penguins and the careers and potential retirements of both Crosby and Ovechkin are discussed, along with their anticipated first-ballot Hall of Fame induction.

Why shouldn’t ovie play til 43-45. The caps will be getting better. His role will be somewhat different as aging superstar, but he can do it if he wants. 1000 goals then possible. Lots of players have gone to 43. Why not ovie. Currently locked to play at 40. Is 43 that different. I an going to cherish this year and next. He is destined to be first player in history to score 900 goals! Matthews is still quite a few away from 400, not to mention 500. Go for 1000 Ovie!! If the motivation to play in front of sons then pretty big kids in four years could help.
I've never been a fan of the washed out red jerseys. That's not the correct red for the Washington Capitals. It was the correct red from 1974-1995. The current red is considerably darker. To me, the washed out red looks like a Chinese knockoff jersey color.
HAPPY BDAY TO THE GREAT 8! Wishing an awesome and HEALTHY season! ❤️💙. Yayyyyy for the reverse retro jerseys coming back! Want more! Lol. I remember Ovi being drafted… I’ll never forget that draft, although in early 20s, I was already in love with the Caps! Thanks DAN! I could keep commenting as you speak but should probably work.. 🙈😂💙❤️
That jersey looks even 10x in better in person – I wish we’d change to it!!
Lol I saw the Crosby post about his “8.7m only contract” I wouldn’t sign for 15m” 😂🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ He’s obsessed with his bday lol……EASSSYYYY Dan, getting TOO complimentary for a 🐧for a min there…. 😜
Great pod as always! So excited for this upcoming season!!
Season can't start fast enough!
