Lincoln Holdings is the partnership led by former AOL executive Ted Leonsis that includes the NHL Capitals, WNBA Mystics and a stake in Verizon Center. In January, the Capitals signed Alex Ovechkin, arguably the most exciting player in hockey, to a 13-year, $124 million contract, the richest in NHL history. The Capitals fired coach Glen Hanlon last Thanksgiving Day, replacing him with Bruce Boudreau. Off the ice, the Capitals will probably break even financially with the help of league revenue sharing.
