Watch Capitals’ Alex Ovechkin and Braden Holtby on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
By C.L. Kohuss
Washington Capitals’ Alexander Ovechkin and Braden Holtby will be joining the set of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Monday, and they’re bringing some new hardware to boot. Check below for times, TV listings, streaming information and more.
In the midst of what’s amounting to be the greatest victory celebration in the history of anything, Capitals’ studs Alexander Ovechkin and Braden Holtby will be dropping by to totally wreck calmly visit the set of NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
It’s surprising, in a way. Surprising because we aren’t sure how they’ll find the time with all the partying going on. They’ve already taken Lord Stanley to baseball games, bars, fountains, and presumably Mount Everest, where Ovechkin strapped the Cup to his back and hauled it the entirety like an unsuspecting toddler game to her fathers antics.
But we digress.
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
Date: Monday, June 11
Time: 11:35 p.m., ET

For the Capitals, this is their first championship in franchise history. If you’ve been missing out on some of the craziness the last few days, be sure to check out the show. We can almost guarantee you will be regaled with some incredible stories up to this point. They may even have to come back. It’s been less than a week and you could write a book on what’s gone on.
A few side notes: Ovechkin became only the second Russian-born player to win a Conn Smythe Trophy as NHL postseason MVP, popping 15 goals along the way. Goaltender Holtby was himself marvelous throughout. He ended the run with a 16-7 record, a .922 save percentage and a 2.16 goals against average.
