1,000 - The number of standings points the Capitals have accumulated so far this decade, tops in the League over that span. The Caps also (narrowly) lead the NHL in wins in the ‘10s with 455. Here’s the decade’s top-ten in points:

With a 106-point 82-game average, three Presidents’ Trophies (2009-10, 2015-16 and 2016-17) and a Cup, it’s been one heck of an entertaining decade for Caps fans, and probably one we’d all have gladly taken if offered on December 31, 2009.
