The Caps have lost 6 in a row and it was culminated with a 7-0 drubbing last night against the Rangers. Ovie has been in what seems like a season long slump. Semin was super hot a couple of weeks ago but has really cooled off. Seems like we never hear Backstrom's name. Hannan hasn't won since he arrived. They've tried different things to jump start the team (brought up Perreault, Ovie fought last night, etc.).
We went from having a pretty nice cushion in our division to now fighting to stay atop of it. The interesting thing is that this team was expected to make a run for the Cup. A few more losses in a row and Boudreau will really be on the hot seat.
I still like this team and think it's better to lose now than come playoff time. In fact, if anything, maybe this is a good thing as it will help humble the team and help them learn how to fight through a losing streak and/or personal/team slumps as they make their push towards the playoffs.
