#Gr8Chase is on, and the Washington Capitals are drumming up fans across the D.C. area.
The Caps captain is just eight goals shy of breaking Wayne Gretzky’s record and becoming the league’s top scorer of all time.
Fans can cheer on Ovi at three home games this week, or check out activations across D.C. and Arlington!
8️⃣9️⃣5️⃣ Goal counters have been placed at Capital One Arena, two Smithsonian museums and other locations so you can take a selfie as the number ticks closer to zero.
👑 Inside Capital One Arena, fans can also sit on a Gr8 Chase Throne and stop by a locker room display showing off memorabilia worn by Ovechkin.
🖌 The Capitals have commissioned local artists to paint murals in two D.C. neighborhoods. Brandon Hill’s “G.O.A.T” - Gr8est of All Time in Adams Morgan and David Barr’s GR8NESS Mural near Union Market are set to be unveiled in late March.
🏒 Fans can also pick up free “Watching The Gr8” lawn sign...
