Calling all Washington Capitals fans.

There are several categories in the NHL Fan Choice Awards featuring your Washington Capitals and the team needs your help to get them all over the edge.

The National Hockey League Fan Choice Awards voting period has been going on for several weeks. You can vote now and as often as you’d like. Created in 2018, the NHL Fan Choice Awards gives fans the opportunity to engage with and vote on the best photos, videos, and GIFS shared by teams, players, and fans from July 1, 2019 to April 1, 2020.

63 NHL players and all 31 teams are featured in videos and graphics across 20 categories. New this year is former NHL player Paul Bissonette acting as the host where he’ll discuss nominees and interview players across social media.
