With stats like those your right that team did crawl into the playoffs, but unfortunately I am not talking about the Ottawa Senators. No, I am talking about your very own CAPS. So, with those stats if the Senators "crawled into the playoffs" then the same can be said about your CAPS, being that they have the same exact wins, losses, and points as the Senators. As for the injuries to the senators, well sucks to be them injuries are part of the game that is the way it goes...

Dude, hello? Overall body of work, sure stats look the same. But consider the streaks to end the year. Ottawa lost a lot down the stretch and suffered some key injuries. Starting hot then finishing cold with injuries/losses, and going 3-6-1 in their last 10 games = CRAWLING into the playoffs as the second-to-last seed.

Meanwhile the Caps are the hottest team in the league, added some great talent at the trade deadline, and won 11 of 12 and 7 straight to finish the season, steamrolling in the playoffs. Your bias is making you look less intelligent than I hope you are.

If the Senators were in the same division as the caps they probably would have won that division. So that doesn't say much for the caps...

Sure they won 11 of 12 at the end of the season but of the 11 games only 3 games were against playoff teams, and the caps lost to the PENS right before they started their awsome hot streak againt teams that didn't make the playoffs, I am sorry but that is not impressive to beat up on teams that suck anyhow. And with the 94 points that the caps managed to get is not any better than the 94 points that Ottawa (7th seed) has or the 94 points that Boston (8th seed) has. Yet as a division winner the caps were still behind in points to the Flyers, Rangers, and Devils, put any one of those teams in the weak southeast division and that is the division champ. The only reason that the caps got their division title was because of a weak division, still not impressive...

If the Caps played the Sens in the first round too we'd all be posting like you right now lolol. We can't all be that lucky though.

You are not lucky, you have to play a team from the best division in hockey...

The Senators didn't beat the Capitals all year. Even when they were 100% healthy, we went 4-0 against them this season. Ha.

I hope you don't think sitting back and protecting a lead or playing on your heels with a two goal lead, with 20 minutes to play against this explosive Caps team is a good idea......

If and I hope not.......thats what the flyers where doing.....BAD MOVE or just fine with me, I hope they continue there BEST work. This Caps team is VERY dangerous!

Not only did ovie score the game winner it was a spectacular play huh?

Just one man I kept hearing Flyers saying. Just one man. Well our one man poke checked a lazy pass and then stole the rebound right in front of the net and made two of your defensemen look like douchebags.

That play was sick! It was like watching Darrell Green step in front of a pass and take it al the way back for a TD ducking and dodging would be tacklers along the way
