The Washington Capitals will broadcast their games this season on 106.7 The Fan, the team and station announced Wednesday.

The Capitals return to the radio station a year after moving to WFED 1500 AM, and later 104.1 FM, last season.

Play by play man John Walton will carry the call for his seventh season. Joining him will be longtime color commentator and former Capital Ken Sabourin, who is entering his 15th season.

“We’re thrilled to bring Capitals hockey back to D.C.’s top-rated sports station,” said Chris Kinard, 106.7 The Fan’s program director, in a statement. “Caps fans don’t want to miss a second of action, and now they’ll hear games and complementary programming throughout Washington via our full-market FM signal.”

Broadcasts will include a 15-minute pregame show and a 30-minute postgame show, hosted by Ben Raby.
