Ward, who signed with San Jose after spending four years with the Capitals, made his first trip back to the Washington ice since leaving town.
The highlights eventually got around to showing two of Ward’s most famous goals with the Caps, the series-ending overtime goal against Boston in 2012 and the buzzer-beating winner against New York this past season. The fans – some of whom were wearing their Caps Ward jerseys – grew even louder.
Welcome back, Wardo. No matter where you play, you’ll be remembered in Washington for years to come.
