Hockey agent Alexey Dementyev believes that generational change Washington Capitals became the reason for the team’s defeat in the first round of the NHL playoffs against New York Rangers .
Washington lost the Stanley Cup first round series to the Rangers, 0-4.
— What do you think was the key factor in Washington’s series loss to the Rangers?
— The key factor is probably that Washington is on the precipice of a restructuring, a generational change, the concept of recruiting and team play. I think that’s the key. And the Rangers are on the rise. Yesterday’s first and second picks are the main players of the team – Lafreniere, Kakko. Maybe not in the most important links, but they are growing, gaining experience and making their contribution,” Dementyev was quoted as saying by the Championship.
