The Washington Capitals picked a nightclub in the neighborhood of T-Mobile Arena for their Stanley Cub victory celebration.
The team rolled into Hakkasan Nightclub at MGM Grand late Thursday night and early this morning. Series MVP Alex Ovechkin, carrying the Stanley Cup, led the entourage to a pair of VIP tables in an event that club officials contend was hastily organized. The Caps had earlier defeated the Golden Knights 4-3 to win the first Cup in the franchise’s 44-year history.
“We did not plan for them coming in, as we were planning on winning Game 7 and having a Vegas Golden Knights celebration,” Hakkasan Director of Marketing Sal Wise said this morning.
