A second-round playoff win over the Penguins ended two decades of disappointment for the Washington Capitals, but their fans could find a trip to the Eastern Conference final includes a couple more unexpected obstacles. “Orders by residents outside of Florida will be cancelled without notice and refunds given,” the Lightning say on their site. The team has previously used ZIP code restrictions in the playoffs. Any Washington fans who have seats in one of these areas will be required to wear “neutral apparel.” If they show up in Capitals gear, the Lightning will offer a neutral-colored T-shirt instead. The team first tried out the policy during the 2015 playoffs and received positive feedback from Lightning supporters.
