The girl was standing right behind the Capitals’ captain with a poster pressed to the glass, reading “It’s my 18 birthday, can I get a puck?”, when he turned around and threw the desired present over the glass and almost immediately got back to his training, fully engaged and concentrated. The happy fan, for her part, burst out crying.
