ARLINGTON, V.A. — The Screaming Eagle is back for the Washington Capitals.
Washington released its new third jersey on Monday, which features the team's traditional Screaming Eagle logo, which pays tribute to the team's traditional look from 1995. The team's famous Dome Capitol logo is on the shoulder.
This time around, the Capitals' jerseys are red with white shoulders, a tribute to the teams of the 1970s and 1980s. There's a lace-up neckline, and inside the collar is the "Caps" wordmark.
Washington had worn black jerseys featuring the vintage logo for the last few seasons, mainly in black as part of their Reverse Retro campaign
These jerseys will be worn 15 times throughout this upcoming season, starting on Oct. 17 against the Minnesota Wild. It will serve as the third jersey for the next three seasons.
