The Washington Capitals made single-game tickets for the 2021-22 season available to the public on Friday.
For the first time since the pandemic started, the NHL will play a full 82-game schedule at teams’ home arenas this season.
Capitals single-game tickets can be purchased on Ticketmaster. Prices for Opening Night, against the New York Rangers on October 13, begin at $60.
Capital One Arena has not been completely full of fans for a hockey game since March 4, 2020, when the Caps lost to the Philadelphia Flyers 5-2. The Capitals say that health and safety protocols for coronavirus will be announced prior to the team’s first preseason game on September 26.
Teams like the Seattle Kraken are mandating that fans who attend games be fully vaccinated.
The #SeaKraken & @ClimateArena will require all guests, ages 12+, attending Kraken games, concerts & events at Climate Pledge Arena to provide proof of vaccination to keep fans, staff, players & artists safe.
