Steamed Caps

AKA: "Congrats, Caps!" (2020)
Old memes for old teams, am I right? Call this idea something that happened after a night of regrettable drinking.

[@DPK1255]

I never imagined I'd have a Washington Capitals parody of Steamed Hams. Yet here I am, quite happy with the result.

[@atpyro7920]

@@xdgaming70 This isn't the first iteration of Steamed Caps A few of the old guard on the subreddit came up with the original version in 2017, when the Caps were down 2-0 to the Blue Jackets in the first round. Then the Caps won the whole damn thing, so Tree released the script for Christmas, and it was assumed nothing would come of it. Then came 2020, and here we are.

[@notumbre]

It’s because we had originally written the bit and pitched it to Tree on the subreddit in 2018 (when the meme was relevant) for when the Caps inevitably failed to win the cup. They then succeeded in winning the cup, and the idea was shelved until last night, when somebody in the Tree discord suggested reviving the meme. Tl;dr, when the idea was created, the meme was relevant.

[@alibahrami4119]

As a caps fan I gotta say I’m happy for Trotz and we deserved it for refusing to pay him. Even with the Caps playing poorly since the cup win in 2018 Trotz still praises them and always talks about how much respect he has for the team. True class act and I would be happy if he won a cup with the Isles.

[@baxatakbaxatak2014]

He put all the pieces in place to win 3 Cups in 4 years with this Caps team. Now it’s back to wasting Ovechkin. I don’t think a single player believes in Reirden.

[@baxatakbaxatak2014]

@Alysandir 3 Cups in 4 years is my guess.

[@thanos2588]

Remarkably, first time the caps had back to back first round exits in the Ovi era, even with all that choking

[@lewisd.4328]

Lewis D. He meant the choking in previous seasons.

[@jeremystewart9074]

@@lewisd.4328 no, we choked. You're not going to win a series when only 3 different players score, and only one goal at even strength. Bottom six didn't even show up. Special teams were pretty good (PK was fantastic imo) but you don't win a series on that alone. Besides game 4, Kuzy was a steaming pile of 2020

[@baxatakbaxatak2014]

@@lewisd.4328 You got flat-out violated by your former coach. You know, the one who finally put all the pieces together, and who probably would have won you guys 3 Cups in 4 years if your cheapshit owner paid him now and restructured later?
