Caps need one point to clinch the Eastern Conference.  Well....technically 1pt would give us 108 and Toronto has 100pts with 4 games left (we have 42RW to their 39, and if we lost all 4 and Toronto won all 4 then i guess they win the tie-breaker with 43 RW) so....

Fuck it.  Win tonight of any kind clinches the Conference.

Playoff teams are all but set at this point. Possible, but don't expect any changes to the WC teams at this point.

Mathematically speaking, the final wild card spot in the East is still in contention. But realistically it’s not.



Puck drop is expected at about 7:45
 >:(

7:50

Chychrun out, illness, McIlrath in.
