"The Kraken outshot the Capitals 32 to 20, out-attempted them at five-on-five 53 to 36, and scored on Logan Thompson seven different times - though two of the goals were wiped off the board by officials. Capitals alternate captain Tom Wilson called the game "a big wake-up call" for the team. Head coach Spencer Carbery went a bit further than that."
"Yeah, I mean. I understand what he's getting at, like a loss like tonight, with where we're at in the season and where things stand. But I feel like our guys have had a bunch of wake-up calls over the last couple of weeks at meetings and understand the significance of where we're at. And so when you get outplayed like we did, I just, yeah, it's not a good feeling what went on tonight."
