Chance of a Lifetime

Brett Leonhardt, web site producer for the Washington Capitals, had the chance of a lifetime to dress as an NHL goalie for a game. NHL teams have two goalies on their roaster and if one gets injured they get another from their minor league team. Last week, the Washington Capitals' goalie Jose Theodore injured himself the morning before a game and the replacement back-up goalie wasn't going to make it to the game in time. The Captials asked Leonhardt, who was a goalie in college, to dress as their back-up goalie until the replacement could arrive.

Leonhardt just one of the guys
