    Well we need to have our fucking Yanni bullshit scheduling issue again...cause if the Isles get home ice, it'll likely be a Wed/Sat lineup for Games 1 and 2 up there, since they're hosting Disney on Ice or some shit Thursday and Friday of next week.

    Columbus up 1-0 on Isles. That's one team everyone in the East is glad doesn't have another month to the season or they'd make a run to get in too. If they get McDavid...fuck.

    Wow all of that explanation was terrible. EU had some dumb shit, although they tried to come up with some "plausible" explanation for Anakin being "The Chosen One" by the end with their whole bs of The Ones being some higher form of Force Entity that kept the force in balance, and Anakin was...

    Detroit and Isles both clinch a spot with Boston's loss. Final 2 spots between Ottawa (97 points, 1 game left), Pittsburgh (96 points, 2 games left), and Boston (95 points, 1 game left).

    Depending on what happens in the Isles/Pens game tomorrow night, we might be locked into our spot before that game as well. Florida takes the lead against Boston. Oh man Ottawa must be freaking out.

    You Sharks fans sound as traumatized as us Caps fans sometimes. Like how all of Grimm's brooding and this recent swoon by the Pens is just a smokescreen for the inevitable Cup run that will include overcoming another 2-0 or 3-1 series lead we end up having on them.

    It's just funny with the Kings, on one hand, if they get in...they might be a team to fear because they could get hot and instantly start upsetting teams. On the other hand, they've played so much hockey the last 3 years you just have to wonder if they have any gas left to do any damage even if...

    Not sure how you get humbled by a guy straight up attacking you for no reason other than: Flyers losing. Frankly I don't think any number 1 starter in the NHL should get too humble. They need to believe they're in a zone sometimes. Nice of the Rags to sit Nash and Staal tonight for Ottawa...

    For a second, I had to consider if the response should be theaters full of people throwing semen-covered money at Olivia Wilde...but really just Olivia Wilde. On another note...not sure where they'll end up going with the story if it's a direct sequel to Legacy. I guess Olivia Wilde's "dna"...

    It's okay Grimm, that point was actually pretty big. They can't win a tiebreaker with the Pens, so they have to gain 2 points on you guys with 2 to go, and you play Buffalo last game of the season. Not to mention the struggling Isles next. I think you're fine.

    Hey, it's not a bad thing for new fans. Part of me relishes the idea of playing the Isles in Round 1 just to get revenge for the Easter Epic. Still hurts after all these years, although that was right about when I first started following the Caps. Elurin there actually isn't any scenario...

    Even if they don't make it, some things to build on with some of that young talent. Stone, Pageau, couple others have been great this year. Not sure if Hammond is as good as his numbers have been. If his run had been as long as Dubnyk's has been in Minnesota, I'd be more of a long term...

    Caps clinch! Getting a point was still big for Ottawa. 2 points back of Pitt, Boston, and Detroit all with 3 games to play. They do play Pens though so they can get even with them (although they won't win the tiebreaker). Heard Ottawa was 19 points back of Pittsburgh on Feb. 12th, next...

    Says he read it all, doesn't realize that if a study has found multiple genes linking to sexual orientation there could also be others. Pretends this somehow provides proof IN ANY WAY that this study completely answers the question that some homosexuality is by choice.

    I'm torn, do I root for Toronto to win because any loss by Ottawa locks us up a playoff spot tonight...or knowing the math for us to miss the playoffs is pretty ridiculous at this point, do I root for Ottawa to keep winning to maybe push Pittsburgh out of the playoffs so they can win the lottery...

    Pens just can't beat the Flyers. Scary thought, Ottawa actually controls it's own playoff destiny now. If they win their remaining 4 games (including a win over the Penguins in regulation), they'd be guaranteed to at least finish ahead of Pittsburgh.
