Capitals are going to get the 8 seed just because nobody else seems to want it. They've sucked ass but have had a few late comebacks to get 2 points recently when it looked like they were about to get 0.
Buffalo lost tonight and can't keep pace. Jets are losing 3-2 late. Tampa just lost 2 in a row, one to the Caps. Leafs...forget about it...after that nobody has a shot.
Out west Phoenix loses 5 in a row, San Jose 4 in a row. A couple of other teams that look like they have no interest in being in the playoffs this year. but the Kings had a chance to get in the Top 8 and lost as well tonight.

The Pacific doesn't have any bottom dwellers, but they certainly are nowhere near the Central and Atlantic in terms of dangerous playoff teams.

Some teams just aren't good enough to lock down the spot. Like this game.. the Jets can't keep up with Vancouver. They're not nearly as good a team.

If the Pens make the playoffs and SJ doesn't, they'll have the 2nd longest active streak of post season appearances behind Detroit.
As much as I hate Philly, I actually prefer Giroux to Stamkos. There's something about his face that makes me want to punch him.
This.
My only gripe about Giroux is that he plays for Philthy. If he played anywhere else (except Washington, Tampa Bay, Detroit, or Montreal IMO), I'd love him to pieces. Hell 99% of us would I bet.
Stamkos on the other hand, you're right. Everytime I see his face I wanna smack him. Although to be fair I doubt it'd do any damage as he already looks like he got hit square in the face with a shovel.
Plus as I've said a bazillion times, him sharing the 2010 Rocket Richard with Sid all because of a cheap empty net goal just makes me furious. I dunno if I'll ever be OK with that.
