We all thought it'd be the #3 seed or bust, but Carolina's hot streak and Philly's cold streak has made it much more probable that if Washington were to make the playoffs... they'll make it as the #8 seed and there'd be 2 SE teams in the playoffs instead of the token one.

They're at 78 points with 9 to play. Buffalo has 79, and Philly has 80, both with 9 to play.

With the final 7 to 9 games being exclusively played within your own division, Washington has by default the easiest schedule. They must go on the road to play two non-playoff positioned Western teams in Nashville and Chicago before closing out their schedule with 7 games against Southeast teams.

How good are there chances? Well, no "4 point games" unless you count the Carolina or Florida games. With Philly in a tailspin and Buffalo having injury issues... just maybe, maybe, the Caps have the edge.

Ovechkin cracked 100 points last night with a 1 goal, 2 assist performance against Nashville, as the Caps hung on for a 4-2 road win. The win had them keep pace with Philly who won last night by the skin of their teeth... a massive, last second save by Niittymaki on a Kovalchuk one-timer right in the slot preserved the 3-2 win for the Flyers. Kovalchuk had just scored 30 seconds earlier to bring the game within 1, as well, so it could've been an epic collapse.

No matter, the Caps officially move up to 9th with the win, still 2 points back.

Ovechkin scored again last night and Washington picked up the necessary 2 points.

FROM THE STAT WIZARDS AT ELIAS SPORTS BUREAU wrote:
The four players younger than Ovechkin at the time of their 60th goal were Wayne Gretzky in 1981-82 (20 years, 359 days) and 1982-83 (22-41), Pavel Bure in 1992-93 (22-11), Mike Bossy in 1978-79 (22-62) and Mario Lemieux in 1987-88 (22-167).

Huge win! The Caps beat the Lightning 4-3 in OT thanks to Tomas Flieschmann of all people.

And they won despite the fact that Ovechkin didn't register a single point. Semin tied the game up with less than 5 minutes to play.

Caps can make it so long as we don't have to play them...

They only look dangerous in comparison to playing Boston or Philly. Laughing

Playing the Caps would be fun.

Even if Joe Thornton were to come back it would still be a major uphill battle for the Bruins.

If Washington beats Carolina in regulation tonight, their odds of making the playoffs would suprass 50%:

http://sports.aol.com/fanhouse/2008/04/01/the-ice-sheet-the-game-no-one-wanted-to-win/#cont

That's pretty good considering they'd still need some outside help in order to make it with only 2 games left to play.

Corvo and Huet have been 2 fantastic deadline pickups, with their respective teams going 7-2-1 and 8-2 in their past 10 respectively.

3-1 after 2! Now don't blow it boys!

Think Ottawa wishes they hadn't have dealt Brooks Laich in that ill-advised Peter Bondra trade?

Did Boudreau just call a stick measurement on Cory Larose? Looks like Washington had a PP, Semin took a hooking penalty, but Larose also got a penalty for "illegal equipment". If that's the case, that Boudreau called it, and they score and win the game partly because of it... and make the playoffs... how can you not think of him as the Coach of the Year? Shocked

Whoops, just checked again... changed to "unsportsmanlike" (which I think is the correct term for illegal curve), but Kozlov took a holding penalty. Must be 3 on 3 with 4 minutes to go. Still 3-1. Damn, I wish I could watch this one.
