Chris Patrick gives Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery major vote of confidence after tough season: 'He's 100 percent our coach now and in the future'
""He's 100 percent our coach now and in the future. I just think he's the total package. He's come in and shown as a first-time coach in the NHL that he can get the respect of veteran guys and get them to play the system he wants them to play, and he's shown he can develop young players, too.""
""As long as we can have him, we will.""
""Carbery has amassed a 131-83-29 record. Among all Capitals coaches, he ranks fourth in points percentage (.599), behind just Barry Trotz, Bruce Boudreau, and Todd Reirden.""
""After Trotz's departure in 2018, Carbery is also the lone coach to have led the team to a playoff series victory, last year's five-game triumph over the Montreal Canadiens.""
The Washington Capitals are facing a likely playoff miss in the 2025-26 season, marking the first under head coach Spencer Carbery. Despite this, general manager Chris Patrick expressed unwavering confidence in Carbery, praising his ability to earn respect from veterans and develop young players. Currently, the Capitals rank sixth in the Metropolitan Division and are three points from a playoff spot. Carbery has a strong record of 131-83-29 over three seasons, ranking fourth in points percentage among Capitals coaches, and is the only coach since 2018 to lead the team to a playoff series victory.
