Caps @ Cbus 1230 ish

Just got off work and can't wait to see how my Caps are doing now.

If I can encourage literally anyone to calm down: this team and system doesn't often work when the whole team isn't really engaged. I think that's either part of how Carbery designed it or just a feature of his personnel coaching, but it's why the team can put up two stinker periods and then come out and win games anyway.

This might be the first real stretch in two seasons that they've been able to outright say "we don't need these games", and I'm personally not stressed that they look out of sorts. This has happened every time some guys are playing at 70% and others at 90% effort, we just care slightly more about them getting hurt right now. I don't think Carbery fed them their lunch in the second intermission or anything

9th consecutive game Caps have given up 3+ goals.

Reminds me a little bit of how they played down the stretch in 2019-2020. It’s hard to turn it back on once the playoffs start.
It's hard to turn on talent and good habits

It's a little bit easier to just dial the energy back up, and that's really what they rely on in comparison to 19-20. In the past you could highlight a lot more bad decisions, this year when they look bad they're all just off-schedule with each other.
 
TVR gets a rough out of that. Nothing for CBJ (besides the matching misconduct with PLD) for going after him after a clean hit. Makes sense.
