Season Ticket Holder Games Available

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I am a nearly year season ticket holder in section 400, row B and miss many games. I have two tickets per game and sell through avenues like Reddit and Facebook groups.

Generally I sell for below market value so it’s less than Ticketmaster pricing. Games can start at around $190 for two seats (my exact season ticket discount) and can be higher depending on the game, but always below the market at that given time.

If anyone is interested, let me know. I have around 30 games left and currently most of October (minus 10/20).

Was given this from my grandfather's collection after he passed. From the 90s/00s based on the Caps logo. Anyone know the autograph?

Edit: on the FIRST puck. Not the Gary Bettman signature, that's printed on.

Question First Game!

36 Upvotes

Been a fan since I was 7 and now I finally get to go to my first game almost 20yrs later! I’ve got tickets to the home opener (and the following vs Rangers) and was wondering what everyone would suggest I make sure to do!

I’ve googled enough to know I’d wanna be there at least 60mins early but probably a bit more for warmups and maybe crowds at the store? Any and all advice is welcome, I’m by myself and really want to get the full experience!

[UPDATE] Did capital one change their bag policy?

35 Upvotes

Hello all! I come bearing an update for my previous post about the Cap One website now saying only up to 4x6 clutches were allowed instead of 5x7.

After a commenter said they were going to reach out to their rep, I realized I could do that as well (I’m a brand new STH and forgot I could just ask about things like that now)! And also seems like we reached out at similar times considering the reply I got lol.

Great question about our bag policy. Funny enough, you were not the only one who reached out yesterday to us about this. We had our director ask our head of security and he confirmed that our bag policy is 5" x 7". In order for us to keep up with NHL rules, we have to label it as 4" x 6" on the website.

Kind of wild that apparently their policy is not the same as it is stated on the website?? That’s going to confuse a lot of people. But glad everyone who already has a 5x7 bag will still be able to use it, and that I don’t have to search high and low to find a bag that fits 4x6. I also think it’s funny that my rep then recommended me the same lululemon bag that several people in the comments of the previous post said that they use.

NHL front-office confidence rankings: How fans feel about every team in 2026 (Paywall)

Thumbnail
nytimes.com
36 Upvotes

2026 Ranking: 6

2025 Ranking: 9

"Whenever a team pitches a retool, it’s hard to imagine it working because it usually just means delaying the inevitable. The Capitals are working to be the exception to that rule, and they’re making a damn good case that it can actually work. After years of winning trades, signings and picks, Washington’s front office has managed to assemble a team with genuine contender possibility.

That is no small feat, especially for a declining club without a clear succession plan, and it didn’t happen overnight. Every summer the Capitals have taken a swing on a buy-low option and they’ve usually nailed it. This summer’s latest, Jordan Kyrou, looks like he can be another winner too.

It’s an unconventional build and the lack of high-end talent at the moment could limit their ultimate ceiling, but it’s hard not to be impressed with the way Washington is currently operating. The front office has earned a ton of respect."

News Ovi’s Offseason: Fast, Furious and Frequently Fined 😄

Full RMNB article about:

https://russianmachineneverbreaks.com/2026/08/24/alex-ovechkin-33-fines-traffic-violations-offseason-russia/

From the article:

Alex Ovechkin reportedly picked up a significant number of traffic fines during his offseason in Russia.

According to Russian outlet Mash on Sport, the Washington Capitals captain racked up 33 separate fines for traffic violations this summer.

The fines totaled 82,000 rubles (approximately $1,000 USD) and covered a variety of violations, including speeding, driving on toll roads, failing to pay parking fees, and stopping or parking in the wrong place

As of the report’s release, Ovechkin has already paid all but one ticket, which is for 4,500 rubles (approximately $54 USD). The fines come 18 years after Ovechkin once famously tried to eliminate all speed limits in Washington, DC, when he received a key to the city in 2008.

“Today is a big day,” Ovechkin said then. “I have a key for the city. And I’m the president this day in the city, so everybody have fun — and no speed limit.”

Ovechkin received all the tickets while in his Aurus Arsenal minivan, a luxury vehicle produced by automaker Aurus Motors in Moscow, Russia. The minivan, which is not available for public purchase, is also used by many Russian government officials because it has an armored body style.

The NHL’s all-time leading goal scorer has owned a slew of impressive cars over the course of his career, once even admitting in the past that his primary hobby was collecting cars. Ovechkin has also been gifted multiple cars throughout his career, most recently receiving a Jetour T2 4×4 Premium SUV at last summer’s Match of the Year.

Hear me out

For context,
Washington had just won back-to-back Presidents’ Trophies and had Ovechkin, Backstrom, Kuznetsov, Carlson, Holtby, etc. Yes, the current team is much more of a veteran/young-player hybrid and missed the playoffs last season…

BUT

“Are the 2026–27 Caps being given roughly the same preseason Cup respect as the 2017–18 team?”

Yes. Almost exactly.

I’m surprised to see that Washington was initially listed around 10–12 to 1 by some books in June/August 2017, before settling around the +1600 range in the preseason.

I’m already psyched to see the big guys play this season but this gives me a shred of hope. Maybe it will for you too.
