No one in league history has owned the front cone like Babbitt has this year, and he’s been on a recent tear, scoring five-plus goals in each of New York’s last three games to end the regular season. DC has been known to adjust and mix up their matchups to limit individuals, but a quiet game for one guy means a loud game for another Ryan Osgar rolled through the DC defense to the tune of 12 scores and 500 yards in that second game. In their second meeting, he found the end zone just once to go with two blocks, and he recorded a career-high 148 throwing yards (including a completed huck). The first game essentially announced his MVP candidacy, when he racked up seven goals and three blocks in New York’s one-goal overtime win, including the game-winner. So far, Jeff Babbitt has played two very different games against DC this season. This week’s watchlist features a handful of MVP candidates, two-way weapons, and championship-caliber talent that’s sure to put on a show in the Divisional Championship Round.

Eight teams remain on the road to Championship Weekend, and each team’s respective stars will be counted on for one last push to this year’s final four.
