New Jersey Devils in seven games while the Capitals finished off the New York Rangers in six games. In the division finals, the Capitals won Game 1 in Pittsburgh, 4–2. The Penguins went on to win the next three games, starting with a high-scoring 7–6 OT affair in Game 2, followed by two 3–1 victories in Washington. Pittsburgh would close out the series in Game 5 with a 4–1 victory. They would go on to win the conference finals against Boston and the Stanley Cup Finals against the Minnesota North Stars, winning both series in six games. In 1991–92, the Capitals finished second in the division and the entire NHL, and the Penguins finished third. This set up a second consecutive playoff meeting between the two teams. This time, the Capitals took a 3–1 series lead by winning Games 1 and 2 on their home ice and then followed a Game 3 loss with a 7–2 drubbing of the Penguins in Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh was placed in the Northeast Division (formerly known as the Adams Division), while Washington remained in the newly named Atlantic Division that was formerly known as the Patrick Division. In spite of the divisional realignment, the two teams met once again in the Stanley Cup playoffs in the first round. The Penguins won the Northeast Division and earned the second seed in the newly named Eastern Conference (formerly the Wales Conference), while the Capitals earned the
