You gotta do better than raid a Sabre's blog for images until then you've  got a soundtrack.

Congrats to Ovie for be given the NHL 1st Star of the Week. 2nd time in 3 weeks
 
 Even the normally Caps-dismissive Bucci predicts Ovie will win the Hart. And Boudreau a second for the Adams.

If you followed the NHL you'd know the Sens are the real choking hazard.
 
 Started the season with the best NHL record ever. Now it's actually possible for them not to make the playoffs and the Caps taking the 8th spot.

Why stop there? It's "possible" for the Caps to finish 3rd in the Conference.
 
 But - it's just as likely they don't even make the playoffs.
 
 So...
 
 Which would you prefer:
 
 The Caps to not make the playoffs, or
 
 The Caps getting eliminated again by the hated Penguins?

[Julian, Alleged Computer F**kface]

I have a weird feeling that if the Caps make the playoffs, its as the SE Division champs and the #3 seed. I think on pure points alone the SE Champs (Carolina OR Washington) would be in 8th place.
 
 I'm all for automatic bid into the playoffs, but a terrible division champ shouldn't leap to #3. Take the West: Detroit, San Jose, and Anaheim should be the top three seeds. If the seeds hold, #1 Detroit would have to play Anaheim in the second round while #2 SJ would get the #3 seed who will be ALOT worse then Anaheim, both in the standings and in actual ability -- not really fair. Perhaps the fair compromise is the basketball system where the 3 division champs are assured no lower then the 4th seed but if a non-division champ has a better record then a division champ, they're ahead of them for the #2 or #3.

I would be happy if they make the playoffs, no matter how they get there or whom they would have to face if they do make it in.
 
 Who to say the hated Penguins would eliminate them again?
 
 The Penguins are expected to win and the Caps would not be, so I think that give the Caps the edge.

[godsshoeshine]

i'm totally hoping the caps play the pens, so i can go to at least one game

[Julian, Alleged Computer F**kface]

I would hate a Pens/Caps series for two reasons. (1) Because the level of "discourse" in this thread would hit ridiculous lows, and (2) because a SidTheKid/AO playoff series would have EVERY game televised by Vs and I wouldn't get to see any of Wings vs. whoever-in-the-first-round in HD.

My sentiments exactly.
