“At certain points in the match, it was really difficult to find the right decision because of the change in momentum. We are mishandling the puck in very strange situations, which is simply unacceptable at this point in the season. recent game with Carolina, and also looking for other meetings, it seems to me that we will highlight two main factors.
One of them is young hockey players who play for the first time at the end of the season, when the intensity increases significantly. Now the speed of gaming has increased and the importance of games is increasing significantly. You may notice that we make some really bad decisions that snowball.
The second point is the game of our veterans: they have to take on so much responsibility that they are simply overloaded and begin to do things unusual for themselves, ”Carbery was quoted as saying by the press service of Washington.
Washington has scored 83 points in 77 matches and is in 10th place in the Eastern Conference standings. In the next game, the capital will face the Detroit Red Wings. The Red Wings are in 8th place in the East with 84 points, so this game could be decisive in the fight for access to the playoffs.
