Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner pose with Capitals after Stanley Cup win

Twitter: Philip Pritchard

Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner took a picture with the Stanley Cup champion Washington Capitals after reportedly running into members of the team at a restaurant in Washington, D.C.

The picture — featuring Alex Ovechkin, Tom Wilson, John Carlson, Alex Chiasson, Dmitry Orlov, Philipp Grubauer and Brooks Orpik — was posted by Philip Pritchard, the “Keeper of the Cup.” It was taken at Georgetown’s Cafe Milano on Saturday night, according to one Twitter user.

The Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup Final on Thursday night in a 4-3 game against the Las Vegas Golden Knights.

Videos on social media showed the Capitals players entering the restaurant to cheers and later singing “We are the Champions” behind the restaurant bar.

President Trump has in recent days antagonized his relationship with sports champions after he canceled a White House visit by Super Bowl champions the Philadelphia Eagles.   

After the Cleveland Cavaliers’ LeBron James and Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry — whose teams both made it to the NBA Finals that the Warriors ultimately won — said they would not visit the White House, Trump said that neither of their teams would be invited.

Trump on Friday extended an invitation to the Capitals to visit the White House.
