Capitals salute Washington Football Team’s Antonio Gibson after he scores a ‘hat trick’ of touchdowns against Cowboys

For those of you who like hockey in your football, you’ll love this.

After the Washington Football Team defeated the Dallas Cowboys 41-13 on Thanksgiving Day, the Washington Capitals gave a shout out to rookie running back Antonio Gibson. The 2020 third-round pick had his biggest day as a pro, recording 115 rushing yards on 20 attempts.

But it was his three touchdowns that caught the attention of the Capitals.

“HAT TRICK FOR @AntonioGibson14,” wrote the WFT. The Capitals responded with a GIF of Alex Ovechkin pulling the words HAT TRICK out of a top hat.

I love the synergy between the DC Sports Teams here.

Gibson became the first rookie to score three touchdowns on Thanksgiving since Randy Moss did so in 1998 against… yup, you guessed it, the Cowboys.

Here are all three of his touchdowns.

A first look at Henrik Lundqvist in a Washington Capitals jersey

Henrik Lundqvist spent 15 years as a New York Ranger, winning 456 games and a Vezina Trophy in 2012.

But after getting bought out by the Rags earlier this month, the 38-year-old goaltender signed a one-year, $ 1.5 million contract with the Washington Capitals, hoping to have a Ray Bourque moment of his own.

Recently, Lundqvist visited Washington DC for the first time with his family. Today, he rocked a Capitals jersey for the first time.

“Trust the process,” wrote Lundqvist online.

Lundqvist rocks a mostly white bucket with a white glove, white blocker, and white pads. Only his red, white, and blue colored stick is the only reminder of his days in New York.

Rangers fans did not handle Lundqvist’s new video well.

The King will likely end up being the backup goaltender in Washington, supporting and mentoring second-year goaltender Ilya Samsonov who is recovering from an ATV accident he suffered in the spring.

If you’d like to look like Lundqvist, you can buy his new Capitals jersey here.
