The Dallas Stars travel to face the Washington Capitals on Tuesday, November 3, 2026. The matchup takes place at Capital One Arena in Washington, with puck drop scheduled for 7:00 PM ET in the first meeting between the teams this season.

Dallas enters the contest with a 5-3-1 record and a three-game winning streak. The run began with a 3-2 shootout victory at the Colorado Avalanche, followed by a 4-0 shutout against the Chicago Blackhawks on the road. In their most recent outing, the Stars edged the Boston Bruins 3-2 in overtime on home ice.

Washington holds a 5-4-0 record through nine games. The Capitals dropped their latest matchup 5-2 at home to the Los Angeles Kings. That defeat followed a pair of home victories, where Washington beat the Montreal Canadiens 5-4 and defeated the New Jersey Devils 4-2.

Tuesday marks the first time Dallas and Washington face each other during the 2026-2027 regular season. The Stars look to sustain their recent defensive form, having yielded only four total goals across their active three-game streak, while Washington aims to bounce back from a multi-goal loss.
