A first overall can only help you if he’s healthy.Yeah with their winning the lottery like 50% of the time they were eligible. Cursed as it gets. Including moving up to 4th when they were almost in the playoffs where the presumptive 90% of the season #1 overall pick Larsson fell to them. They went to the finals the very next season. Plus they’re signing the #1 free agent multiple years in a row in Hamilton and Meier (though they traded a bit to get him). Or getting an actual franchise player first overall (twice) instead of a project like Slaf. I will take their curse over ours.
The Caps demonstrate why it's important to have a competitive farm team.Great start for the Caps.
4-3 Caps, but PP sens nowFrom Caps (3-0) Sens.... To Caps (3-3) Sens...
The only teams better than Montreal the last two months have been the league's top teams.
Since early-mid November, the Habs have a better record than Detroit, Columbus, Ottawa, Pittsburgh, basically all the teams we're battling with for a WC spot.
I don't expect us to keep playing at a such a high level, but the other teams surrounding us are just as likely to sink. It'll be a wild finish and I can't believe we're seriously checking the standings for a playoff spot!
