I say this only half-jokingly, but my final decision would come down to how much beers cost at the arena not how much the tickets cost.


No Beer

The Kettler is the Caps practice facility. It sits on top of the parking lot at a mall that is being demolished/rebuilt. It has 2 NHL sized rinks (only one with stands) and a small coffee shop and a larger Caps Store and a decent hockey/figure skating pro shop. Lots of locker rooms, a few kid party spaces, and some space on the 2nd floor for letting teams do meetings and off ice conditioning work. I actually spent Kol Nidre watching NC State lose to GW (high school friends son is a freshmen for the Ice Pack...and was scratched for the game).

Every year over President's day weekend they host a huge top level youth girls tournament. I have taken my daughter to watch the Little Cesar's teams (from Detroit) play (they are very good).

Never really read about Hobey Baker...
Interesting..from Lower Merion, Pa (so he and the Mamba and a former boss of mine have that in common). Played football (captain), hockey (captain), and baseball but Princeton had a rule you could only play 2 sports so he quit baseball. Also noted for starting the post game handshake (Princeton v. Penn State). In both the college hockey and college football hall of fame. Died flying a recently repaired plane for a test flight (while he had orders to return home in his pocket).

It might've been quicker to show all the pictures of the guys who weren't nominated.
