Shoes, Ships, and Sealing Wax

The answer you've all been waiting for!

The All-Star game trivia question was

Bill Clement, Keith Jones, Brian Engblom, and Mark Messier. What do three of these guys have in common?

Well, three of them have hair and Messier is bald, but that wasn't my original thought. What struck me, when I turned on the tv, was the preponderance of ex-Capitals in the broadcast booth:

Bill Clement, 1975-76
Brian Engblom, 1982-83
Keith Jones, 1992-96

Mark Messier, of course, never did time in D.C. (or Landover).

[Interesting little Bill Clement factoid from the Hall of Fame player bio: "Clement has never hid the fact he hated his time with the cellar-dwelling Capitals."]
