    ARLINGTON, V.A. -- It was an exciting final day of Washington Capitals Development Camp, as the ice was split into three mini rinks for a 3-on-3 tournament. On the line: a coveted mini-camp trophy and ultimate bragging rights.

    Several players used it as a means to finish camp with a bang, and that included the big names and the smaller ones.

    Here were the teams:

    Red: Bogdan Trineyev (C), Ivan Miroshnichenko, Simon Tassy, Ryan Leibold, Dylan Anhorn, Aaron Trotter (G)

    White: Oskar Magnusson (C), Ryan Chesley, T.J. Hughes, Patrick Thomas, Ryan Hofer, Garin Bjorklund (G)

    Blue: Brent Johnson (C), Ryan Leonard, Max Burkholder, Jack Rogers, Jaxson Murray, Mitchell Gibson (G)

    Green: Haakon Hanelt (C), Ludwig Persson, Jake Karabela, Cam Allen, Chase Clark (G)

    Gray: Joaquim Lemay (C), Alex Suzdalev, Andrew Cristall, Ian Pierce, Antoine Keller (G)

    For Ivan Miroshnichenko, it was a scoring clinic. The 19-year-old scored almost every which way, from booming one-timers to nice moves in front to help his team, which was captained by Bogdan Trineyev.

    He also didn't shy away from showcasing his strength, even surprising Ryan Leonard when he went in for a hit that rattled the boards. It was a strong way for him to close out his first on-ice week with the Capitals as he prepares for his first pro season in North America.

    Speaking of Leonard, his physicality, compete level and grit were on full display. Wearing an "A" that he -- along with all of his teammates -- put onto his sweater with hockey tape, he threw his weight around, took the puck hard to the net and had some nice shots and chances for a couple of good looks and goals.

    Brent Johnson, who had the hockey-taped "C" on his chest, stood out too with his smooth-skating and puck-moving ability. He's preparing to transfer to Ohio State.

    It came down to the grey and white teams. The green team came in last place, leaving Haakon Hanelt, Ludwig Persson and Jake Karabela to take on the shoveling duties to clear the snow ahead of the finals. Hanelt tried to supervise as Karabela and Persson used the shovels, but he was swiftly given a goalie stick to finish the duties.

    Ultimately, though, it was the grey team that made the most noise and went on to win. Andrew Cristall showed off some highlight-reel moves to score some crafty goals and was one of the notable standouts of the day. He was showcasing his skill, making smart plays and skating well while also showing improvements that he made in camp.

    Alex Suzdalev also got on the scoresheet with some nice plays and also took a high stick during one of the games but quickly returned. Ian Pierce's overtime winner against the white team ultimately secured the title, as French netminder Antoine Keller backstopped his team to the trophy.

    David Gucciardi, who tweaked something early in camp, sat out. Brett Hyland did not play and did not participate on ice in camp due to knee surgery.

    Meanwhile, Dmitry Orlov was in attendance to take in camp.
