The question I have is when was the last time Ottawa if first place in the East?
I remember being in 1st last year just after game 3, but that was for about a couple of days (7) after that we lost tones of games... (btw we were tied for first).
But if you are asking about truly when Ottawa was in first for real, you'd have to go to back to the early to mid 1970's...
ouch.
