The Washington Capitals finally announced who will be on this year’s bobblehead: forward, fan-favorite, and 2018 Stanley Cup Champion Tom Wilson. The bobbleheads will be given away when the Capitals host the defending Stanley Cup Champion St. Louis Blues at 7 PM ET.
IT’S WILSONNNN!

The bobblehead design relates to the main character, Wilson, in the movie Castaway. The Capitals used footage from the movie in their promotion above.
The Capitals have held their bobblehead night at the end of March for the last several years but this is the latest that they have announced who is on the bobblehead. Center Evgeny Kuznetsov, forward T.J. Oshie, and goaltender Braden Holtby are among those who have been on the bobblehead in year’s past.
