Washington Capitals Coach Admits to ‘Mistakes’ After Back-to-Back Losses Against Hurricanes

For a moment, it seemed the Washington Capitals had figured out the Carolina Hurricanes after just one game. After losing the opening clash of their Eastern Round 2 series 2-1, the Capitals pulled one right back, winning Game 2, 3-1. Unfortunately, it’s all been downhill since then, as the Canes now have full command of the situation with a 3-1 series lead after Game 4. And Coach Spencer Carbery can’t seem to treat the illness despite knowing the symptoms.

“At this point, how much of this is execution? It just seems like they’re executing on more plays, and you guys are maybe making it difficult on yourselves with some of the mistakes and lack of execution,” a reporter asked Carbery after the Canes just earned another dominant victory over the Alex Ovechkin and Co. While the 5-2 score line looks marginally better than the 4-0 shutout loss in Game 3, the playsoffs are no place to make marginal improvements.Yeah, I mean, that’s pretty accurate,” admitted the Caps coach during the post-game interview.
