Raw Charge, a Tampa Bay Lightning community

The Capitals and Ovechkin are peaking at the right time as they look to solidify their grip on the Southeast. Will the Jets find the consistency to challenge?

While the top teams in the Atlantic and Northeast build impressive leads, the Southeast Division title remains a dogfight. The Jets and Canes are battling for every point, while the Capitals continue their push to sneak in to the playoff mix.

The Southeast Division is there for the taking if there's a team that can figure out how to play and win consistently.

From Becca H, her view on whether the Caps have hit bottom, how Caps fans are dealing with it, and the best possible outcome for the '13 season.

The Tampa Bay Lightning have taken the early lead in the Southeast Division standings, while last year's Champs and this year's favorites are floundering. Meanwhile, Winnipeg and Carolina are finding their form with a couple solid wins as well.

Ward out, but you'd never know it; Mr. Panther Stephen Weiss; Caps are done; Jets control their fate. The week that was in the Southeast.

Delusional Canes; Everyone had one game and it was against the Sharks; and Mike Knuble is staying put. The week that was in the Southeast Division.
