BETHESDA, Md. The Washington Capitals' march toward the 2016-17 Stanley Cup Playoffs will be available in more places and on more screens than ever before as CSN Mid-Atlantic has announced that its live-game coverage, along with gameday shows Caps GameTime and Caps Extra, will be available to stream live on CSNmidatlantic.com and the NBC Sports app beginning Saturday, Nov. 12 at Carolina (7 p.m.).

The live Capitals coverage will be available to authenticated CSN Mid-Atlantic subscribers on desktops, tablets, mobile devices and connected TVs anywhere in the United States. The new service supports NBCUniversal's "TV Everywhere" initiative, which gives consumers additional value and makes high-quality content available to authenticated customers both in and out of the home, and on multiple platforms.
