After hosting an on-ice fantasy training session, featuring skating drills and insider tips, Washington Capitals hockey player Alexander Ovechkin signed autographs for children active in the Fort Dupont Hockey Program. More than 15 kids participated in the event, held last Thursday, Dec. 11 at the Kettler Ice Rink in Arlington, Va. Following the lesson, Ovechkin took the children on a holiday shopping spree in Ballston Common Mall, in which the rink is located. (Photos: Nick Gatz, News-Press)
