Some see it as a curse, since 7 out of the 23 past winners have gone on to win the Stanley Cup, personally I see it as a sign of a great season!
Washington will have home ice advantage throughout the playoffs no matter who they face.
There are still 4 games left before the end of the regular season and 2 of those games are against the Boston Bruins, who could possibly be their first round opponent. The first of the two games is tonight and the 2 first times the teams played this season, the Caps won 4-1 each time.
Mike only played in 1 of the 2 games since he was suspended for the 2nd one. In the game he played he was plus one.
