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.

For the first time ever, I’m going to Scotiabank Arena to watch the Toronto Maple Leafs host the Minnesota Wild.

Thoughts on the Game
So this was a game that happened, which is weird to say because I was really excited to take in a Leafs game at Scotiabank Arena, and well, the atmosphere felt really flat.
The in-game hosts lacked enthusiasm, and even the game crew didn’t seem excited when throwing out free shirts. It was a weird vibe.
As for the game itself, I enjoyed it. It was hockey, and it was always good to take in a game whenever I can, especially in a different city.
Today the National Hockey League announced their Three Stars of the Week for the week of January 20th through 26th.
First Star – David Pastrnak (RW – BOS)
Pastrnak, who was named the “Third Star” for the week ending Jan. 19, led the NHL with 3-5—8 in four contests to lift the Bruins (25-20-6, 56 points) into the first Wild Card position in the Eastern Conference via a 3-1-0 week. He registered 1-1—2 as Boston rallied for a 6-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks Jan. 20. Pastrnak then factored on the Bruins’ final six goals of the week, collecting an assist in a 5-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils Jan. 22, posting 1-1—2 in a 2-0 triumph against the Ottawa Senators Jan. 23 and recording 1-2—3 (his sixth three-point game of the campaign) in a 3-1 win versus the Colorado Avalanche Jan. 25. The last Boston player to factor on at least six consecutive team goals: also Pastrnak, from April 9-11, 2023 (6). The 28-year-old Pastrnak, who has assists/points in seven straight games dating to Jan. 11 (7-10—17), paces the Bruins in goals (24), assists (35) and points (59) through 51 total appearances this season. He also ranks among the 2024-25 League leaders in shots on goal (1st; 211), points (9th; 59) and goals (t-10th; 24).

Second Star – Mason McTavish (C – ANA)
McTavish topped the NHL with five goals in three games (5-0—5) to propel the Ducks (20-23-6, 46 points) to a 2-1-0 week. He scored once in a 5-2 loss to the Florida Panthers Jan. 21. McTavish then notched back-to-back two-goal performances, in a 5-1 victory against the Pittsburgh Penguins Jan. 23 and a 5-2 triumph over the Nashville Predators Jan. 25. The last Anaheim player to produce consecutive multi-goal games: Trevor Zegras, on Nov. 14 (2-1—3 vs. VAN) and Nov. 16, 2021 (2-0—2 vs. WSH). The 21-year-old McTavish, the third overall pick from the 2021 NHL Draft, sits fourth on the Ducks with 11-13—24 through 43 total contests this season and owns 49-63—112 in 196 career NHL appearances since making his debut in 2021-22.
