Spencer Carbery, as a rookie head coach, led the Capitals, with the worst goal differential, to an improbable playoff berth in the salary cap era.
Despite facing multiple challenges like player retirements, struggles, injuries, suspensions, and a revolving roster, Carbery guided the team to success.
