Quotations
"The [Philadelphia] home-and-home series is probably the defining moment of the season whether we were going to be in the playoffs or not," Brouwer said. "You always look back and you find that turning point of the season where if things would have gone your way - like they did last year in Winnipeg - then you're in the playoffs, you're rolling...But we blew the two-goal lead in the one game and lost the other one."
Capitals' math is actually pretty simple now - win out and hope for some help →
"You have to leave a lot of your chances to other teams and other organizations for things to go right," Washington forward Troy Brouwer said. "It's a little gloomy in here, but guys are preparing for St. Louis knowing that we have to win out the rest of the season otherwise we're not even gonna give ourselves an opportunity to make the playoffs."
