Description
I blame coaching for the early (kinda) playoff exit. I know they were not repeating as Champs, but they fell flat in games 3,4,6,7 due to coaching lapses.

Oh well...on to next year...here goes.

Not discounting the fact we had injury trouble, but the Canes had their injuries too. Not to mention Eller and the whole team stepped up last year when Backy missed games. Not the same effort this year from majority of the roster. Kuzy 6pts was not indicative of how uninspired his play was all series.

At the end of the day, TR couldn't motivate this group to play better and you can't win with one line. Not saying it's his fault though, Trotz years 1-3 had similar issues. The Cup is not an easy thing to win.

Truth to your statement. But good coaches find a way to get players to step up. Reirden did not do that...at all. The Caps had no joy, no swagger, no power in the series. Good coaches draw teams through adversity.
