I don't know how many fans are out there but if you are, you may want to consider an ESPN Plus subscription. It looks so far like every single game for every team except the ones shown on NHL Network are on there. All of the Capitals games in October and November are all on there. I have a friend who's a Red Wings fan and all of there games in October and November have been or will be on there. I don't know if that will keep up all season but it's nice for now.
