Washington Capitals square off against the Philadelphia Flyers in an NHL preseason showdown at Hershey’s Giant Center on Sept. 25, 2025, 7 p.m. The rivalry tune-up drops the puck in the home barn of the AHL’s Hershey Bears, giving central-Pennsylvania fans an NHL night without the two-hour drive to D.C. or Philly.

Preseason rosters add a dash of intrigue—Hershey mainstays could crack NHL lineups, turning the game into a homecoming on NHL ice.
