Tuesday morning the Metropolitan Police Department sent out a traffic advisory via the AlertDC system regarding the Caps’ Stanley Cup Final run. The road closures, set from the evening of May 29th to June 11th, seem to indicate that the NHL will be setting up the area around Capital One Arena with festivities.
