Now we will see if Alex Ovechkin can one-up rival Sidney Crosby by leading the powerhouse Washington Capitals to a Stanley Cup.

Crosby did it last season with the Pittsburgh Penguins, but this time the Capitals enter the NHL post-season with the 30-team league's best record of 121 points, scoring a whopping 318 goals in 82 games.

Ovechkin had 50 of them for his third straight 50-goal campaign, but thus far he has yet to lead the Caps beyond the second round. He has plenty of support, including 101-point man Nicklas Backstrom and 40-goal scorer Alexander Semin.
