Enjoy just over 70 minutes of great plays, milestones, and other memorable moments from the greatest duo in Washington Capitals history (and some of their teammates along the way).

Hopefully, I am not missing anything major. I went back through every goal they ever combined on, and a few other moments I recall from memory, but I could have missed something. Making this video really made me appreciate that the Capitals had both these guys at the same time, and so many of the most memorable moments in Caps history were the result of these two combining for a goal.
