George McPhee has had a tough year. Two months ago, his Washington Capitals were just about dead last in the league and looking hopeless. Fast-forward to April 23rd: The Capitals are going to the playoffs. The Capitals have won their division. The Capitals’ captain is the league’s best scorer.

Damn right, he’s gonna celebrate. Imagine that relief, that vindication. He’s been under fire for months now, and he’s unscathed. If that doesn’t merit a Bender-from-Breakfast-Club fist pump, nothing does. File this far away from GMGM’s 3OT freakout and the raaaaaaage.
