Talk:2019–20 Washington Capitals season

Captain & alternate captains
It's in the rules of the NHL, that a team must have 'at least' 3 players wearing letters. That's either a captain & at least two alternate captains or if no captain? then at least three alternate captains. Thus the reason for having TBD in the infobox, as the Capitals will be naming a second alternate this season. GoodDay (talk) 16:19, 29 June 2019 (UTC)
 * That is fine, but the section is for listing who they are, and at the moment the only one is Backstrom. Adding a TBD in there is confusing to the reader and not at all helpful. -DJSasso (talk) 12:03, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * But, it is helpful, as the league calls for 'at least' three players to wear letters in any given game. Linking TBD would clarify it more. GoodDay (talk) 19:35, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
