It’s a good spot but there’s no telling that would be where the Washington Capitals would finish the regular season. Not with 69 games played and just 13 games left to decide the regular season.
There’s a lot you can takeaway with where the Capitals stand right now at a season that hit a pause button. The Caps are 41-20-8 for 90 points. That’s one point ahead of the Philadelphia Flyers, a team that dominated the Caps this season and won the last two meetings in D.C.
The Caps played one of their best games in Pittsburgh in a win over the Penguins and what we didn’t know was that it would be their last best game for a while.
