@hockeynheels19

Hi, my name is Victoria Thomas and I am addicted to hockey. I was born in Ukraine; grew up in Virginia; live life in Colorado. Passions in life include hockey, sled hockey and military appreciation. I am the preeminent collector of Washington Capitals memorabilia because, in the end, what's better than hockey? More hockey.
