US company making masks for sports fans to stay safe and show team pride
WinCraft CEO John Killen says the new products have been a phenomenal success for the company hit hard by COVID-19.
The Washington Capitals are a team built for the playoffs and, even with the unusual format of the postseason, their performance in the round-robin games is still critical.
In his 15th season with the Caps, Alex Ovechkin has shown no signs of slowing down. He is tied for first for NHL scoring leader with 48 goals and his postseason performance is sure to match.
The Caps' biggest hurdle to overcome will be goaltender Braden Holtby who had a lackluster season. With backup goalie Ilya Samsonov out with an injury, the Caps will rely on Holtby to step it up.
