On Sunday at Nationals Park, Ted Leonsis represented the Washington Capitals as their 2017-18 Stanley Cup-winning team was inducted into the D.C. Sports Hall of Fame.
“There’s a bit of immortality that you get, there’s a bit of memory that’s created with everyone in the organization that you share forever,” Leonsis told NBC Washington’s Rob Carlin. “It’s those special one-of-a-kind moments that motivate us to get to work.”
“I’ve always tried to pick Teds brain when I was here,” said Kevin Payne, the first president and CEO of D.C. United, who was also inducted.
