NBA's Wizards, MLB's Nationals show off Capitals version of City Edition jersey

Before Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round, the Washington Capitals got to style a new look.

In a collaboration with their NBA counterparts, the Washington Wizards, Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin and defenseman John Carlson modeled NBA-themed hockey jerseys.

The sweaters are based on the Wizards’ City Edition jersey design, with “The District of Columbia” written on the front in Old English font. The Capitals version has a red, white and blue color scheme with the players’ numbers on the sleeves and the back with the nameplate.

The MLB's Washington Nationals also released a modified version of the Capitals sweaters, based on their own City Connect jersey.

Earlier in the day, the Wizards wished the Capitals luck in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Other local pro teams also took to social media to wish the Capitals luck in the postseason.

Washington hosts the Montreal Canadiens on Monday at Capital One Arena for Game 1 (7 p.m. ET; MNMT, ESPN, SN, TVAS).
