In case you haven't heard, Washington Capitals fans want the Cup.

And if you didn't know, just go ahead and ask them. They'll tell you.
Inside and outside of Capital One Arena on Monday, fans gathered to celebrate a big victory over the Vegas Golden Knights to put the team one win away from raising the first Cup in franchise history.
Former Capitals forward Peter Bondra captured video of fans shouting "We want the Cup" inside the arena after the victory.

Outside, the team and former goalie Olie Kolzig shared a video of fans clad in red flooding the streets.

One picture, taken from the vantage point of the 400 level inside the stadium by NHL.com correspondent Brian McNally gives you a good feel for just how many people were outside.

Game 5 is Thursday in Las Vegas.
