Making the Case for the Washington Capitals: 2020 Stanley Cup Champs

With the NHL declaring the regular season complete when it unveiled its return-to-play plan last week, you can officially make that 10 division titles in the past 13 years for the Washington Capitals. Yeah, a few of those were by default when they ruled the otherwise pathetic Southeast Division, but let’s give credit where credit is due here. Including this season’s slim victory, the Capitals have won five straight Metropolitan Division titles, home to some of the league’s heavy hitters. In that same time span, three different teams have won Atlantic and Central Division titles and four have captured the Pacific Division.
