I have grown up watching the Caps and will forever be a Caps fan.
When I first started going to games (in the mid/early 90′s), you could buy tickets for $5 and sit anywhere you wanted. The team practically gave tickets away. They just wanted see someone sit in the seats. At that time, hockey was a joke in this town. The city had no pride in the team. All of this changed when you purchased the team 9 years ago.
You have taken so much pride in the team. You personally go out and promote the team. You are just as much a part of the team as Alex Ovechkin or Bruce Boudreau.
You thanked the fans for their loyalty and support. I think we should thank you for bringing the pride back to this team. You have been the best thing for this team. Because of you and your enthusiasm for the team and game, Washington can now be called a hockey town. So thank you Ted for bringing back the spirit of hockey back to this city!
