Still waiting for Washington Capitals games to come back?

Quarantine life can be boring sometimes but thankfully we have plenty of hockey documentaries to get us through the pause. What we included is a popular NHL documentary and two documentaries that Washington Capitals fans would certainly enjoy.

#3 Willie

Willie O’Ree was hockey’s version of Jackie Robinson. He changed the game forever on Jan. 18, 1958 by breaking the color barrier. In the middle of America’s fight to end Jim Crow and begin the civil rights movement, Willie became the first African American player to skate in a National Hockey League game.
