Posted withregram • nbcwashington Alex Ovechkin’s #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 signs at the MedStar Capitals Iceplex and Capital One Arena Team Stores (👆 swipe to see Ovechkin’s sons show them off).⁠
⁠
📱 And if you’re on TikTok, you can try out the Gr8 Face Yourself filter!⁠
⁠
See more about the fan activations at our #linkinbio. ⁠
