I posted a few locker room photos from my visit in April, but the “card wallâ€? is something I’d missed photographing on that first trip. The glass wall separating the player’s lounge from a hallway is covered in slightly-enlarged reproductions of classic Capitals hockey cards on both sides.

But no screen was yet setup, so I didn't take a photo. The Caps' locker room is also impressive: beautiful wood locker stalls, engraved metal nameplates, and very spacious. But it was empty except for Chris Clark and Brian Pothier's equipment (they're training for the World Championships in Moscow), so I didn't take a photo of the overall room. By the way, the facility has seven additional locker rooms, most of which are available for use by teams that rent the complex for rec games or beer leagues. So there will be plenty of room for all the prospects at training camp. I may have a photo of Clark's locker; I'll check tonight and post it as a comment if I have a decent image.
