The Caps Checklist

Attend your first Caps game, get a puck AND picture with a Caps player all in one afternoon? It's a day Addy will not soon forget.

When Addy was driving from Richmond into Washington, D.C. with her dad Craig on Sunday, she thought they were just going to pick up something that her dad had bought - she had no idea what was in store for her.
When they arrived at the Capital One Arena parking deck, she saw people walking around with Caps shirts on. And as soon as her dad popped the trunk and pulled out a couple of jerseys plus her checklist, she knew what they were really doing.
What Addy also didn't know is the day before, her mom created a "6-Year-Old Check List" with things she wanted to do that year. The list included:
Addy had already completed the first two items - she started Kindergarten in September and lost a tooth in February.
Addy had talked about going to a Caps game for about a year, so the excitement was palpable. She immediately went down to the glass to wait for the boys during warmups with her list.
About halfway through pregame skate, Jakub Vrana saw Addy and flipped a puck over the glass to her.
Get a puck? Check.

Just a few minutes later, Jakub was back near the glass where Addy was standing and she asked him for a selfie. He happily obliged and she checked off another item on her list.
"A little girl behind the glass there asked me for a selfie," Vrana told NHL.com. "So I just took one."
Within about an hour, she had completed her check list. Addy and her dad never thought she'd be able to finish the list in a single afternoon.
And Jakub Vrana earned a new fan for life.

"Her face in the picture tells more of the excitement than she could convey," said her dad Craig.
Addy had the time of her life at her first Caps games and looks forward to attending many more in the future.
