As if hockey wasn't enough to get you to Verizon Center, the Caps will have several promotional games this season including multiple heritage nights and their first ever Star Wars Day.

Just like last season, the players will walk the red carpet in front of Verizon Center for the team's home opener against the New York Islanders on Oct. 15.

Here are the other promotional nights for the season:

Nov. 5 vs. Florida Panthers: Hockey Fights Cancer Night

The Caps will wear purple warmup jerseys that will then be auctioned off in the annual Hockey Fights Cancer jersey auction.

Nov. 8 vs. San Jose Sharks: Election Night

Fans will be able to vote on the bobble head the team will give away later in the year. Just be sure to vote in the presidential election before you head to Verizon.
