Bruins a Capitol Target

From the Washington Post:

"Caps fans should root for the Flyers tomorrow afternoon. Why? Because the team the Caps might be most likely to catch is now, in my opinion at least, the reeling Boston Bruins."

Those fighting words are from Corey Masisak, a writer from the Washington Post. He argues that the best chance the Capitols have to make the playoffs is for the Bruins to self destruct. He writes, "...two more losses by Boston would officially put them in a huge tailspin and maybe they don't recover."
