When was the last time a team choked away a seemingly safe playoff spot in this fashion?

Dallas just did it like a week ago.

We've seen teams choke away division titles that were seemingly in the bag ('03 Canucks, '06 Rangers, '09 Flames), but to go from basically being in the playoffs for most of the year and to blow it like this?

In late February Dallas was fighting for 3rd in the Central with a 7-8 point cushion over the 9th place team.

They chose to stand still at the deadline, and the wheels promptly fell off.

Dallas won 3 games in all of March. Probably the worst team in hockey over the past month.

Duncan Keith...... who would've thought?

Even if the Hawks won that Wednesday game in OT/shootout, this game still would have KO'd the Blues, right?
