The Capitals and Hershey are celebrating 20 years of affiliation this season, and it made for a uniquely anticipated preseason game at Giant Center. hockeyhotstove.com/capitals-20-...
Capitals’ 20-year affiliation with Hershey among AHL’s best - Hockey HotStove
Twenty years ago, the Washington Capitals went back to make the Hershey Bears their affiliate for the first time since 1984. It's been a big success.

Per @tedstarkey.bsky.social: The Washington Capitals look like a Nascar racer that has run out gas on the track.

The Capitals had no response after the Hurricanes led first. That's an ominous sign.

The last time the Capitals had 14 shots in a playoff home game, it was the end of the 1990 Wales Final where the team was depleted. Washington got five shots on net last night after the Protas goal, two after the equallzer. Not going to win the series without pushing back.

35 years ago yesterday, Washington won its first second round series in team history as John Druce scored in overtime of Game 5 to eliminate the Rangers, and send the Capitals to their first-ever games in May.

It appears with a regulation win Thursday the Capitals would clinch the ROW tiebreak over Columbus, so if they win in 60 all they would need is an Islanders loss to clinch a playoff berth. An OT/SO win means Caps need both to lose.

Regardless of what anyone else does, 3 points clinches a spot for Washington and a Top 3 in the Metro.
March 19, 2025 at 2:29 AM
If my math is right, Washington clinches a playoff spot and at least third in the Metro Thursday with a win over the Flyers and Islanders and Blue Jacket regulation losses.

From this date in 1989, newly-acquired Dino Ciccarelli scored 7 points in a rout of Hartford, setting the team mark, which Jaromir Jagr matched in 2003.
