The only standard that matters is winning the championship, and the Caps do not have the pieces to go all the way nor will they get the pieces to go all the way as long as McPhee is here.

People said the same thing about the Colts. I already jumped on the bandwagon when the team got hot, and regret not being there before they got good. I'm not jumping off because a young team has struggled in the toughest, most random postseason in all of sports. And above all else their lack of success in the postseason doesn't change the fact that they're an exciting team to watch.
