FAQ

Avalanche vs Capitals questions

How often do the Avalanche and Capitals play each other?

The Colorado Avalanche and the Washington Capitals meet twice a regular season, once in each arena. Every club plays each club in the other conference twice, home and away, so this is the least often the league schedules any pairing — and outside the Stanley Cup Final it is the only way the Avalanche and the Capitals meet.

Are the Avalanche and Capitals in the same division?

No, and not the same conference either. The Colorado Avalanche are a Western Conference club in the Central Division; the Washington Capitals are an Eastern Conference club in the Metropolitan. That makes every meeting between them an inter-conference game.

What is at stake when the Avalanche play the Capitals?

A win is worth two points in the standings, and a loss in overtime or a shootout still earns one — so a game that goes past regulation puts three points on the table rather than two. An inter-conference game cannot move the Avalanche and the Capitals past each other in any playoff race — they compete for places in different conferences — but the points count toward each club’s total exactly as any other game’s do, and the overall table decides home-ice advantage in the Stanley Cup Final and the Presidents’ Trophy.

Can the Avalanche and Capitals meet in the playoffs?

Only in the Stanley Cup Final. The Avalanche are in the Western Conference and the Capitals in the Eastern Conference, and each conference plays out its own bracket until the final round.

Where can I follow the Avalanche and Capitals for the rest of the season?

Each club has its own Kalshi team page with its schedule, form and futures prices, and every Avalanche and Capitals game Kalshi lists has a market page with the moneyline. The NHL standings, schedule and Stanley Cup odds pages cover the rest of the league, and the matchup index carries every other pairing the Colorado Avalanche and the Washington Capitals are in.
