Sweeney was at the Caps game<\/b><\/a>. In the post, Sweeney mentioned he used to come down to see his team, the Rangers, at the old Capital Centre. I am pretty sure that in addition to that he also was part of an intermission entertainment at a game I attended, probably in March 1992 when <i>The Cutting Edge<\/i> (which I have never seen) came out. Anyway, Sweeney&#8217;s part of the intermission was to be the celebrity goalie in a shootout. The shooting celebrity &#8212; <b>Larry King<\/b>. My memories are hazy, but if I recall correctly, Sweeney did not have to stop any shots since King was an emaciated stick figure who had trouble getting the puck past the blue line from center ice. King may have moved progressly closer, but I&#8217;m pretty sure none of his attempts would have counted as a shot on goal. Does anybody else remember being at that game?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/website_3c1e0e40\/graphics\/technorati.gif\" border=\"0\">  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/WashingtonCapitals\" rel=\"tag\">Washington Capitals<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/nats\" rel=\"tag\">Caps<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/DBSweeney\" rel=\"tag\">DB Sweeney<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/LarryKing\" rel=\"tag\">Larry King<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\">&copy;MMX William F.
