I see the success of Brind’Amour and I thought it was a plus Carbery has veins all over his head, I mean when those guys yell you’ve got to pay attention

Didn't fall for it but I wholeheartedly approve of the effort.

As for the hire it's kind of the "duh" move, isn't it? This is what's "supposed" to happen. Whether or not it works out is TBD.

Regarding Kuzy, Carbery will come into this having heard things about Caps players from outside the organization. He'll know the negative and positive shit people are saying and what Kuzy's value is.

That will probably determine Kuzy's fate.

I think Carbery will put guys in the best position to succeed, in regards to their skillsets. Hopefully he let's Kuzy cook, can get Mantha inspired, and let the youngsters loose. I don't think he is going to come in here and try to make players someone they're not i.e. Hunter, Oates. Again, I know GMBM has had his errors, but he always seems to have his finger on the pulse of the needs of this team, and this is a no-brainer hire at this point. They got it done, and now the roster tweaking will begin soon.

Feels like good news! Things needed to change and I welcome whatever that is....with the luxury of having no expectations :)

It obviously wasn't planned this way (or was it?) but I think the best thing about Carberry's career path was going away to Toronto for a few seasons. The obvious next step after his time in Hershey would be up to the Caps most likely as an assistant at that time, then to head coach after a few years.

Thing is the Caps already tried that with Reirden with the assistant to head coach transition and it failed, like almost every time a team tries this.

Excited for the team!

He seems a little awkward talking to the media, but when he talks the game he feels pretty good.

I like his definition of pace, seems to be an organizational thing, but I'm curious how that plays with a guy like Ovechkin. How do they foresee him playing with "pace" now a days.
