ARLINGTON, Va. - Spencer Carbery wasn't mincing words. His team is up 1-0 on the Montreal Canadiens in their Stanley Cup playoff series and officially down one important player. Martin Fehérváry, a reliable member of one of the league's best group of defensemen, is done for the season after having knee surgery on Monday. He was injured in the 81st game of the regular season. "It sucks," Carbery said.

WASHINGTON - Start the show with a song everyone likes. Musicians understand it, and Alex Ovechkin does, too. For the first 20 minutes on Monday night, the Washington Capitals superstar played the hits. Not literally, but for a hockey player, as close as you can come.

ARLINGTON, Va. - We've seen it plenty of times: Ovechkin sitting next to Carlson on the Washington Capitals' bench. On Sunday, though, the specifics were different. Smaller bodies. Less gray hair. Indeed, it was Lucca Carlson and Sergei Ovechkin, in full gear, watching the Caps practice. Their fathers are NHL players of some renown, and they've got a Stanley Cup playoff series against the Montreal Canadiens that starts on Monday.

After a long time spent apart, the Rankings Boys are back. How did we celebrate the occasion? With a playoff team draft, of course. With the 16-team field likely set (barring an epic collapse) and a pile of work ahead of us next week to prepare, we decided to do our playoff preview ranking a week early. And we did that by doing a draft of the 16 playoff teams. The scoring system: one point for a first round win, two for a second, three for a third, and four for winning it all. The prize?

ELMONT, N.Y. - The floor was wet. Beyond that, inside the visitors' locker room at UBS Arena, there weren't many obvious signs of what took place Sunday, what Alex Ovechkin accomplished. It felt crowded, sure, and there were a few more former All-Stars milling around than you'd typically see after a game in early April. Still, a person dropped in the middle of the scene would've noticed hockey players speaking into microphones and not much else. Tom Wilson was one of those players.
