Last night, the Nashville Predators defeated the Washington Capitals and jumped to 115 points on the season. The win helped them claim not only the Central Division title, but also the President’s Trophy.
It wasn’t that long ago that the Dallas Stars were running the Central with 50 wins and earning their own first divisional title. That was two seasons ago and boy, how things have gone downhill since.
On Sunday night, the Stars were eliminated from the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoff race. It marks the second straight year that Dallas has missed the postseason and the third in the past four seasons.
