 Blackhawks officially eliminate Caps - The Washington Times: Sports   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The Caps were mathematically eliminated from the Eastern Conference playoff chase as Chicago's Tuomo Ruutu scored his second goal with less than seven minutes remaining, and the Blackhawks survived being down two skaters late to post a 4-3 victory at MCI Center.

The Caps seemed almost too patient with the extra skater, not even threatening a shot, before Kip Miller passed from the right circle to Alexander Semin in the left circle, and the Russian rookie perfectly placed the puck on Jeff Halpern's stick for the point-blank one-timer against the helpless Munro at 13:39.
