28 - Number of days remaining until the Caps open the 2014-15 season. But it's also...
...the number of regulation/overtime wins earned by the Caps in 2013-14, tied with Calgary for the fourth-lowest ROW total in the League and accounting for just 73.7% of their overall win total, also fourth-worst. The Caps went to the shootout an NHL-leading 21 times last year, four ahead of San Jose at #2, and were tied with the Sharks for the most wins via the shootout with ten.
