Back to footage of the days with the Cup, we take a look at Braden Holtby‘s big day with it where he celebrated it in Saskatchewan. He brought the Cup to his old hockey arena as well as the Holtby farm where he grew up.
The documentary shifts to round two where a familiar opponent awaited them. This would be the third straight second round meeting between the Caps and Pittsburgh Penguins and unlike the previous two times, Washington got the job done.
After highlights of Game 2 where the Caps evened up the series, the documentary shifted to Matt Niskanen‘s day with the Cup in Virginia, Minnesota where he took it for a ride on his boat.
Once the Caps won Game 3 thanks to Nicklas Backstrom feeding a pass to Alex Ovechkin that he banged in in Pittsburgh, the doc shifts to Gavle, Sweden for Backstrom and Christian Djoos‘ day with the Cup. The two Swedes shared their day together. It meant a lot to Djoos, who was coming off his rookie year, due to the fact that Backstrom is a big time star in Sweden.
