Capitals vs Flames
Definition
A high-stakes National Hockey League (NHL) matchup between the Washington Capitals (from D.C., known for their star-powered offense) and the Calgary Flames (Alberta's fiery squad, famous for gritty defense and playoff heartburn).
Slang for an epic clash where political pundits debate D.C.'s elite vs. Canada's oil-patch underdogs, but mostly just hockey fans yelling at TVs.
