Nicknamed by Caps fans as “The Chief“, Craig Berube spent five and a half seasons as a member of the Washington Capitals playing left wing. His time with Washington began in the 1993-94 season when the team called home in Landover, Maryland at the old Capital Centre.
Breube’s first season saw him record 14 points, seven goals and assists each in a historical season in itself. That spring, Berube was part of the first Capitals team in franchise history to defeat their biggest rival’s from Pittsburgh in six games.
The Chief’s greatest season was fittingly enough when the Capitals advanced to their first ever Stanley Cup Final in the 1997-98 season.
