How do the Washington Capitals stack up against the other teams in the Eastern Confrence? If the playoffs started today who would the Washington Capitals face?

Even though we're past the NHL trade deadline, there's still questions remaining about if the Washington Capitals did enough at the trade deadline. With the huge loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Monday the questions even seem bigger now than before. Did the Washington Capitals do the right thing by not going after an established goalie? Were Marcus Johansson and Jonas Larsson the right move for the Washington Capitals, or was Brian MacLellan simply bargain shopping?

The Washington Capitals play the Minnesota Wild on Sunday. Statistically the Capitals have played well against them, this is an all new look Minnesota Wild however. How will the Capitals fare against the Wild?
