The puck doesn’t drop on the Capitals 2017-2018 regular season for more than three more months, but single game tickets will go on sale to the general public on Wednesday, June 28, at 10 AM at WashingtonCaps.com.

Public presale started today, with the team sending out access codes (such as TW18 for Twitter and FB18 for Facebook) on its social media channels.

The team’s announcement didn’t include any details on availability of tickets to the Stadium Series game in March, when the Caps will face off against the Toronto Maple Leafs at the Naval Academy in Annapolis. The team’s PR department confirmed on Twitter that Stadium Series info isn’t available yet.

Tickets for the 2018 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series will go on sale at a later time. For the latest info visit: https://t.co/1awbLumOIH
