The Washington Capitals hosted the Arizona Coyotes over the weekend, but the desert dogs weren't the only canines in the building Saturday night.
A very good boy played a game of fetch on the Verizon Center ice before the game.
The retriever shows impressive end-to-end speed, has excellent hockey IQ, and clearly has a nose for the puck.
Central Scouting might just have to adjust its rankings to include the four-legged companion, whose NHL comparables are clearly Aleksander Barkov and Jay Beagle.
