The Detroit Red Wings were able to take down the Washington Capitals by a 3-1 score last night at Capital One Arena, inching them even closer to a postseason berth.

And during the first period, the host Capitals had a special video tribute for ex-Washington forward Jakub Vrana, now a member of the Red Wings and also playing in his first NHL game since October 15. 

For Vrana, he certainly appreciated the gesture. 

“That was really nice of them," he said afterward. "I had a lot of flashbacks in the arena, of course. But once the puck dropped, it was all business.”
