Mike’s STH Xperience – Battling the Champs

Written by

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.

Richard Zednik was drafted by the Washington Capitals in the 10th Round of the NHL Draft in 1994, and in his rookie season played a pivotal role in the Capitals making it to the 1998 Stanley Cup Final. Zednik was traded to the Montreal Canadiens in March of 2001, and then traded back to the Capitals by the Canadiens in July of 2006 before being traded to the New York Islanders in February of 2007.

Zednik played a combined 289 games recording 69 goals and 134 points with the Capitals. Zednik signed with the Florida Panthers during the summer of 2007 and spent his last two seasons in the NHL with them.

Thoughts on the Game

Boy was this a doozy of a game lol. The first period was just wild, and the bounces were even crazier. Definitely resulted in three goals because of those bounces. The second period was just as fun with Tom Wilson scoring seven seconds into the period and then Dylan Strome scoring 50 seconds later. Logan Thompson was definitely put to the test this game against the Panthers, but he held strong.

No goals from Alex Ovechkin, but man did he have some really great opportunities to score. Former Capitals goaltender Vitek Vanecek survives another game without allowing Ovechkin to score a goal against him.
