The 2022–23 Washington Capitals season was the 49th season for the National Hockey League franchise that was established on June 11, 1974. The Capitals missed the playoffs for the first time since the 2013–14 season (and only the second time since 2006–07 and changing their colors back to a more patriotic color scheme), ending their eight-season playoff streak, being eliminated from playoff contention on April 4, 2023, after the Florida Panthers defeated the Buffalo Sabres 2–1. The Capitals ended a streak of 15 consecutive winning seasons, one of twelve NHL teams to ever have a streak that long.
