NASCARThe Washington Capitals open 2026-27 on the road against the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday, October 2, then play the home opener at Capital One Arena on Wednesday, October 7. This is the full Capitals uniform schedule: every sweater in the closet, what each one is for, and a game-by-game record of when it goes on the ice. The newest addition: the red Screaming Eagle third is back for 10 home games, starting October 9 against the Rangers.
We build these before the season rather than after it, so the closet is here from day one and the dates fill in as they are announced. Third jerseys and any one-off specials get added here as Capitals announce them. The NHL schedules its alternates in blocks rather than all at once, so this page changes through the autumn.

Capitals Screaming Eagle Jersey Schedule 2026-27
Washington announced on September 30 that the red Screaming Eagle third goes 10 times this season, all at Capital One Arena, as reported by Russian Machine Never Breaks from the team's release. That is five fewer than its debut season, when it went 15 times, and the Hometown Remix is one reason: that sweater needs home dates too, and the Capitals already have Remix giveaways on the calendar for November 7, December 1, January 12 and January 14.
- Friday, October 9 vs New York Rangers, 7 p.m.
- Saturday, October 17 vs New Jersey Devils, 1 p.m.
- Sunday, November 1 vs Minnesota Wild, 3:30 p.m.
- Saturday, November 14 vs New Jersey Devils, 7 p.m.
- Saturday, December 26 vs Columbus Blue Jackets, 8 p.m.
- Saturday, January 16 vs Colorado Avalanche, 7 p.m.
- Friday, January 22 vs New York Islanders, 7 p.m.
- Tuesday, February 16 vs Anaheim Ducks, 7 p.m.
- Friday, March 26 vs Boston Bruins, 7 p.m.
- Saturday, April 3 vs Columbus Blue Jackets, 5 p.m.
All times Eastern. This is the red Screaming Eagle introduced in 2025-26, not the black Screaming Eagle Washington wore for six home dates in its 50th season. Each date is marked in the game log below.

Expected calls follow the league default: the dark sweater at home, the white on the road. Third jersey and Hometown Remix nights are added the moment the Capitals announce them. Played games show the final score, and Confirmed means we checked game photos and logged the sweater the Capitals actually wore, updated the morning after the game.
Frequently Asked Questions
What uniforms do the Washington Capitals have for 2026-27?
The home dark, the road white, and the Screaming Eagle third. The league-wide Hometown Remix special edition joins them once the NHL reveals it after the season opens. The closet section above describes each one.
What are the Washington Capitals wearing tonight?
Once the season opens we log the Capitals sweater for every game on this page, updated the morning after each one. Confirmed special dates are added as soon as they are announced.
When do the Capitals wear the Screaming Eagle jersey in 2026-27?
Ten home games: October 9 vs the Rangers, October 17 vs New Jersey, November 1 vs Minnesota, November 14 vs New Jersey, December 26 vs Columbus, January 16 vs Colorado, January 22 vs the Islanders, February 16 vs Anaheim, March 26 vs Boston and April 3 vs Columbus.
Why are the Capitals wearing the Screaming Eagle fewer times this season?
It went 15 times in 2025-26 and is down to 10 for 2026-27. The league-wide Hometown Remix special edition arrives this season and needs home dates of its own, and Washington already has Remix nights planned from November.
How many jerseys do the Washington Capitals wear in a season?
Three in a normal NHL season: the home dark, the road white, and a third jersey, plus any one-off specials such as a Stadium Series or Winter Classic sweater.
Where can I see what the Washington Capitals wore last game?
Right here. This page is the Capitals uniform record for 2026-27. Every other club is in the NHL uniform schedule hub, and we run the same format for every NFL club and every MLB club.
The Bottom Line
The Capitals closet for 2026-27 is the red home, the white road, the Screaming Eagle for 10 home nights starting October 9, and a Hometown Remix sweater still to be revealed. Everything else is a matter of which night it comes out, and that is what this page tracks from the October 2 opener at Carolina onward.
