Athletistic / Hockey. Washington Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery believes the team is still in the playoff race despite six straight losses. “Capital” failed at the beginning of April.
Washington is still in the playoff race, as crazy as that sounds. We are one victory away from potentially controlling our own destiny. Even though we have struggled to score points recently, we are still in the fight. Now we have to play a lot better,” Carbery said, as quoted by the NHL press service.
Washington has scored 83 points in 77 matches and is in 10th place in the Eastern Conference standings. In the next game, the Capitals will face the Detroit Red Wings. This meeting could be decisive in the fight for the playoffs, since the “red wings” with 84 points after 77 matches occupy 8th place, giving the right to participate in the Stanley Cup. The match between Detroit and Washington will take place on the night of April 10 and will start at 2:00 Moscow time.
