Athletistic / Hockey. Washington Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery shared his emotions after his players reached the NHL playoffs. This happened after the victory of the capital in an away match of the NHL regular season against the Philadelphia Flyers (2:1).
“I still can’t understand all of this!” It seems I haven’t yet realized that we have achieved our goal – we are back in the Stanley Cup. I’m just proud, very, very proud of our team. Today’s game symbolizes what this team has been doing all season.
We played our second game in two days: it was clear we were completely out of gas, but the guys fought every pass to get the puck out of the zone to run forward. Before the third period started, we had a good conversation about what we needed to do. The boys persevered and did a brilliant job in the deciding part of the match. And they found the path to victory! We made it to the playoffs! » The Washington press service quotes Carbery.
“Washington” in the first round of the NHL playoffs will face the strongest team of the regular season, the New York Reinders. The first two matches of the series will take place on the ice of Madison Square Garden in New York.
