Futility Meter: -13, 2-7-1

I guess it goes without saying that if the team in the 8th and final playoff spot beats you, they get two points and you get nothing. This drops the Senators to 13 points out of the postseason.

What doesn't go without saying is that the Senators are currently the proud co-owners of the worst last-10 numbers, sharing the 2-7-1 "record" with the New York Islanders.

We are not even at the All-Star break yet. At what point can we declare 2008-09 officially over?
