After spending the day with Chris Patrick, and a day visit with Rob Tillotson, Lord Stanley made its way back to Richard “Dick” Patrick; President and minority owner of the Washington Capitals.

Dick and his son Chris are the sixth and seventh member of the Patrick family to win the Stanley Cup. The family lineage in pro hockey can be traced back nearly 100 years, several years before the birth of the NHL. STORY HERE.
Patrick was hired by the Capitals in 1982 and has played a key role in the growth of hockey in the DC area.
Safe to say with as many cup celebrations they have had over the years, the Patrick Family know how to party.
Family history in the making. Dick (right) and Chris become the 6th and 7th members of the Patrick Family to win the #StanleyCup. @Capitals Dicks’ Grandfather Lester who won it 6 times..last one here with the @NYRangers in 1940 @NHL @HockeyHallFame pic.twitter.com/Ssq7qPpJRu
