Welcome to Mike’s Season Ticket Holder (STH) Xperience!
This season is my first one as a Season Ticket holder for the Washington Capitals, and in place of doing Caps Game Recaps, I’ll be sharing my experience being a STH during the 2024-25 season. Here I’ll be sharing all of the photos that I take during pregame warmups, along with any FB/IG Reels and TikToks I create at the games.
I will also be doing this for any other games I may go to, whether it’s in Hershey for the Bears, or at other NHL venues for games.
The Washington Capitals play their final home game of the season as they host the Columbus Blue Jackets.
To start the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Washington Capitals faced the Columbus Blue Jackets, and after dropping the first two games in overtime at home to Columbus, the Capitals went back to Braden Holtby between the pipes, and with a double overtime victory in Game 3 thanks to a Lars Eller game-winning goal, the Capitals did not look back as they went on to win their first Stanley Cup in franchise history. And the Cup clinching goal? Lars Eller.
It’s the Home Finale, and I’m really proud of myself as I’ve been to all 41 home games this season. I didn’t think it was going to be possible, but I made it happen and I’m really proud that I did.
For the game itself, a great start for the Capitals as Alex Ovechkin scored his 896th career goal to give the Capitals the 1-0 lead, but after that the Blue Jackets scored four unanswered goals to sweep the back-to-back. Definitely not the way you’d want to have your home finale go, especially with two games left before the playoffs. One can only hope the Capitals get their acts together and end the season strong before starting the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

The Washington Capitals host the Carolina Hurricanes in their second to last home game of the regular season.
Drafted 26th overall in 2010, forward Evgeny Kuznetsov came to the Washington Capitals during the 2013-14 season, and made an impact right away. In 11 seasons with the Capitals Kuznetsov recorded 171 goals and 397 assists for 568 points in 723 games played.
During the 2018 #StanleyCup Playoffs, Kuznetsov led the NHL with 20 assists and 32 points in 24 games played. Kuznetsov’s most iconic goal came in Game 6 against Pittsburgh when he scored in overtime to help the Capitals advance to the Eastern Conference Final for the first time in 20 years, and played a key role in the Capitals winning their first Stanley Cup that same year.
The time has finally come as the Washington Capitals honored Alex Ovechkin at home in front of their fans to celebrate Ovechkin’s record breaking 895 goals. It felt really good to see the Capitals do the pregame ceremony. Though it was a bummer that both Wayne Gretzky and Gary Bettman were not on hand for it, but I guess their commitment was only for when he scored the goal.
Once the celebration was over it was time for the game, and in the first period the Capitals were flat against the Carolina Hurricanes. However, a late tally from Pierre-Luc Dubois got the Capitals back on track. In the second period the Capitals woke up as Dylan Strome, Nic Dowd, and Tom Wilson all scored hard fought goals to give the Capitals the 4-2 lead. The third period felt like a dud, but it was the shootout to give the Capitals the 5-4 victory and clinch 1st place in the Eastern Conference for the playoffs.
Overall, a fun experience, but now the Capitals need to get back to business and get ready for the Playoffs.
