The Washington Capitals spent part of their Monday afternoon at the Med-Star Georgetown University Hospital, visiting patients and spreading a little holiday cheer.  The visit has become a traditional event for the Capitals during the holiday season.

As part of the visit, Capitals players participated in art activities with the kids in the Pediatric Hematology – Oncology Clinic.
