The Washington Capitals’ promotional calendar for the 2025-26 season is in, and let’s just get right into it: there are some real doozies this year.

Notable giveaway or special ticket item gifts this season include:

Capitals pickleball paddle (10/25, special ticket offer)
Logan Thompson & Charlie Lindgren Reversible Oven Mitt (11/26, giveaway)
Capitals Grateful Dead jersey (12/11, special ticket offer)
Alex Ovechkin Floss Holder (1/7, giveaway)
Dylan Strome Bobblehead (1/13, giveaway)
Capitals rainbow jersey (1/17, special ticket offer)
Pierre-Luc Dubois Designed Hat (2/2, giveaway)
Ovi-Wan-Kenobi bobblehead (2/5, special ticket offer)
Capitals cherry blossom tumbler (3/18 special ticket offer)

There are three Alex Ovechkin promotional items available in what could be his last season in the NHL. An Ovi-Wan-Kenobi bobblehead, perhaps inspired by a nickname Ovi received by some on social media, will be available as a gift as part of a special ticket offer for Star Wars Night on February 5 against Nashville. Margaritaville Night on January 31 will feature an Alex Ovechkin tropical mug — another special ticket offer gift. Then, on January 7 against the Dallas Stars, all fans in attendance receive an Alex Ovechkin Floss Holder, so that they can “keep [their] smile game strong!”

The Pride Night rainbow Weagle jersey is (incredibly awesome and) available as a special ticket offer gift on January 17.
