Behind the acquisition of goaltender Frédéric Chabot, the team managed to form a tight-knit unit and ended the regular season top of the league with eight points ahead of the runner-up, The EC KAC.

Beginning in the 2007–08 season, the league enforced a scheme that allowed each EBEL team the commitment of only five transfer card players; as a substitute, the so-called points rule was introduced.

This sparked heated discussions among the clubs, where it was argued according to the EU labor rules that every hockey player should be allowed free choice of employment, of which any regulations would be illegal.

The home games of the Capitals were played to crowds of up to 4,500 spectators at the comprehensive Albert Schultz Eishalle in Vienna's Danube City.

In addition to increasing seating capacity, a parking garage was built and new video screens and VIP boxes were installed.
