Thompson gifted homemade ornament by young Capitals fan 

Logan Thompson celebrated being named to the Canadian Olympic roster with his biggest fan.

The Washington Capitals goalie was gifted a homemade ornament and card by a young fan named Sutton after the team’s game against the New York Rangers at Capital One Arena on Wednesday.

In a video posted by the Capitals, the 7-year-old gave Thompson a big hug before giving him a belated Christmas gift.

Sutton is a cancer survivor who rang the bell at the Capitals Hockey Fights Cancer Night in November. The young fan and Thompson met in November 2024 at a Hockey Fights Cancer skate hosted by the Capitals. The two have forged a sweet bond and the Capitals goalie was in attendance when Sutton also rang the bell at a local hospital in honor of completing cancer treatment.

The ornament featured a picture of Sutton and Thompson after she completed her treatment. The 7-year-old also made two handmade cards to wish him a Merry Christmas and to congratulate Thompson on making Canada’s Olympic hockey team.

“Congrats on making the team Canada Logan! I’m so excited you are going to the Olympics,” Sutton wrote in one card that featured a drawing of the Olympic rings and Canada’s flag.

On Wednesday, Thompson and Capitals teammate Tom Wilson were announced as part of the 25-player Team Canada roster for the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026.
