00:00check in with spencer carberry capitals head coach what's up coach morning guys so coach uh
00:09before the puck even dropped good morning um yesterday did you have a feeling like in the
00:14back of your brain like man the canes they're going to give us their best effort tonight we
00:19already took the opener in their building and now we're back just 11 days later kind of a weird
00:24scheduling quirk uh to be back there you know twice within 12 days but did you have that inkling
00:30like man the canes are gonna they're gonna be coming after us tonight they're gonna be pissed
00:33they're not they're not happy with the way the first one turned out no doubt um we knew that we
00:40would get their um their best shot last night not just because of the way that the the start of
00:46the
00:46year but i feel like their first two games they play forward at home i think they lost in in
00:51overtime then they play us we beat them there and then they've kind of all right the stanley cup
00:57hangover that's enough of that and they've um won i think five in a row since then so that's they've
01:03got their game on track and we knew we'd get their um their best look last night so it's hard
01:09fought
01:09game just didn't do enough um in the end to find a way joined by spencer carberry caps head coach
01:16presented by the centers for advanced orthopedics more physicians more locations more advanced
01:20care centered around one thing you visit cfa ortho.com so as fans just watching the games
01:26on tv trying to get to know some of these new players i want to hear what boone jenner you
01:32think
01:32brings to the table for this team he scored last night as well as justin hole trying to get to
01:38know
01:38these new guys what is boone jenner all about yeah boone has been um arguably our best player thus far
01:45uh best forward uh through the first six games um and even he's not someone that um you know was
01:56brought in here to score and and necessarily lead the way producing offensively but it's been nice to
02:01see he's placed so hard plays the right way he's always in good spots he's a really intelligent player
02:08um wins draws block shots penalty kill guy heart and soul and so you know he's doing all those things
02:16and he's been rewarded the last few games scoring um scoring some big goals for us so that's that's
02:22been good to see um him so seamlessly fitting in with our group coming over from columbus
02:28uh where he was for so many years and and then justin hall um started the year in hershey but
02:33scored a big goal for us last night he i coached him in toronto for years uh with the maple
02:39leafs
02:39organization so he's he's been around he's a veteran defenseman and um you know steps in in a depth
02:45role and plays solid for us yeah getting back to jenner for just a second coach like you mentioned
02:50he's not going to be a guy that gets you like 30 or 35 goals like he got 30 back
02:54in 15 and 16 when he
02:56was in columbus but if he keeps up on this pace and like he's not going to score every every
03:01single
03:01night we understand that but if you got like 20 to 23 goals along with all the other attributes that
03:08he brings to the ice you guys would be thrilled you'd be like fist bumping if that happened right
03:13100 you're accurate there and and that's the the thing is is guys that play that way usually good
03:19things happen for him you know it's it doesn't mean they're he doesn't play any power plays so
03:23everything production wise is probably going to come five on five or or shorthanded um so it it is
03:31nice to see them get rewarded and and him and you know if he gets 25 great if he only
03:36gets 15
03:38that's okay too as long as he's doing that little stuff which which he's demonstrated thus far
03:42so leno was all over the ice last night four game point streak two assists against the canes last
03:49night penalties have been an issue with four penalties during that point streak how do you
03:53and the staff walk that fine line with him between aggression and crossing the line where he's going
03:59to spend time in the box how do you guys thread that needle yeah so that so for me that
04:05there's
04:05when you're looking at penalties and discipline you're you're looking at what went on in the play to
04:11to take the penalty right so if it's a you're you're back checking hard and you're trying to dig for
04:19the
04:20puck and and your stick gets in there and you trip a guy that's going to happen you're working hard
04:25you're trying to win the puck you just tripped a guy or maybe you go through and and you finish
04:30your
04:30check and you're a little bit high with that check and it catches him you know let's say up high
04:37and
04:37and they call you for an elbow or an interference you can live with those and that's where you know
04:43the the ones that we want to stay away from are the frustration penalties the penalties that
04:50are in bad spots where we didn't do the work and it's a it's a lazy penalty those things are
04:56the ones
04:56that we try to stay away and coach out of our especially our young guys and that so that there's
05:02the line and and we we talk about it and we show them different situations and um leno last night
05:08i
05:08know he'll grow from that and learn from that experience of taking that penalty late but um
05:13yeah young player that'll that'll definitely be better for going through that situation and learn
05:18from what went on last night so coach carbs ov pots career goal number 930 against seattle now he
05:26gets lifetime concert privileges at the 930 club that's a pretty nice perk man if you if there's
05:32a show coming to town at the 930 club you just got to call ov and uh and tag along
05:37with him you'll
05:38you probably get in for free i'll probably always been the case i would assume that's probably the
05:43case yeah you guys got to fill me in i heard this the other day what is what is that
05:47oh what is the
05:47930 club is like an iconic like smaller concert venue here probably holds i don't know 1500 maybe
05:55up to 2000 got it yeah so got it if if there's a if there's down near howard university if
06:00there's
06:01a band that you like that's coming to town at the 930 club just just like we just let over
06:05know and
06:05he's gonna get you right we hosted an iconic show with the beastie boys there like 20 years ago you
06:10know oh nice yeah yeah okay yeah it's that kind of deal okay so i'm hitting him up if there's
06:16any act
06:16going there that's uh yeah in my realm okay yeah i think you hit up ov for anything i think
06:22so um so coach
06:23how do you feel about uh playing back to back you're back home playing montreal i think montreal's
06:27won a couple in a row both shootout wins um yeah yeah it's gonna be a tough game tonight back
06:32uh we
06:33get in late last night but they played last night as well so even uh even playing field there with
06:39both teams on back to backs but it's a big game for our team we're we're still trying to find
06:44ourselves
06:45a little bit and um you know that the chemistry within the group and some line combination stuff
06:52with some injuries early on so it's a um it's a big game for our team so hopefully we're we're
07:00get a little bit of rest today get ready for 7 30 tonight and we can um we know this
07:05team well we've
07:06seen them in the playoffs a couple years ago but um a team that that um is playing well right
07:11now is
07:12went on a decent little run last year in the playoffs so it should be a good matchup so coach
07:18logan's gotten the call on the last four and now with montreal tonight for you and the staff is that
07:23like an automatic button push chuckie gets the start in net or do you consider rolling thompson out
07:29for two starts in a 24-hour span how does that decision play out for you so we always talk
07:35about it but
07:36i think this early in the year um playing someone on a back-to-back logan or chuckie or whoever
07:44just don't think it's the most prudent thing to do this early in the year um not adverse to doing
07:51it at some point we've done it in the past before i know chuckie played a back-to-back a
07:55few years ago
07:56lt has played back-to-backs but just this early in the year um this is an opportunity for chuckie
08:01to
08:01come in and play well for us tonight at home coach um leno cakes was asking about leno and his
08:07time
08:07on ice right now is about 13 and a half minutes is that affected more by the penalties or do
08:12you think
08:12he's going to be on the ice more do you want him on the ice more like 17 18 minutes
08:16how's that work
08:18no i think that's where probably right around there he doesn't penalty kill um so he's power play five
08:25on five and i just think like our our team with the amount of right shot wingers that we have
08:32so if
08:33you think about our right shot wingers we've got ryan leonard jordan kairu alex ovechkin tom wilson alex
08:40tuck right right so the the minutes there like 13 14 depending on power plays will fluctuate a little
08:47bit i think we've been shorthanded more than we've been on the power play but i think you'll be right
08:51around there um and then a little bit will depend on his play right if he's playing at a real
08:57high
08:57level maybe it's at 16 for a five or six game stretch and maybe it dips um depending on play
09:03but that's where we kind of see that that forward group with all the right shots up there so coach
09:07cars we know on sunday you were not watching the commanders game you were prepping for the cracking
09:13game i believe there's a five o'clock puck drop this past sunday but i'm sure you've seen the fallout
09:18from the end of that game as far as jayden daniels going down and and not getting a last playoff
09:24not
09:24having a chance to kick a field goal to potentially win the game how shocked were you by the way
09:29the
09:30end of that game and you have to feel bad for everybody involved dan quinn jayden daniels everybody
09:36but you know there's also blame to go around when something isn't pulled off the way it's supposed to
09:42be you know like you don't have that standard operation at the end uh how did you feel watching
09:46that and have you ever been in a situation even approaching that yeah in your coaching days it's
09:53what else it's was really unfortunate and i get it like it's the best league in the world the nfl
10:00like
10:00you've got protocol you've worked on these things but even looking that game earlier to the philly um
10:05was it jacksonville yeah like yes the endings of the games um yeah there's just a lot going on and
10:14and these guys are professional athletes and they make a lot of money and um you but i i'll just
10:20say
10:21this like even for us when you get into heated moments and i'm not just talking about our team
10:26i'm talking about other teams like there is a lot of pressure and things going on and things that you
10:30think are automatic and should happen 100 out of 100 times um you know there's just the emotion
10:38everything and and all of a sudden there's there's one blip and one little mistake and
10:42so i feel for those guys i know that was an unfortunate situation you'd like to get that
10:48right we'd like to get all those situations right but it does happen even even the best athletes in
10:53the world um when the pressure and the bright lights and everything's going on and you're trying
10:57to get something in and um sometimes it goes the wrong way it's weird because these guys are so
11:02rehearsed you guys in all sports you go over all of these things they've been through it a million
11:07times they've executed it well a million times but then to just have sort of like a collective
11:12brain fart all at the same time it's staggering yeah and it's like i'm i'm i know i know it's
11:19hard
11:19to believe and like how if you've rehearsed that so many times but like we watch every night like
11:24we'll have certain situations that we've talked about we've worked on everybody could rehearse it
11:30yeah a hundred times in practice yeah next thing you know you get in to carolina at the lenovo center
11:3715 000 people screaming and and it's like oh no what happened right right and and you want to kill
11:45someone yeah yeah it's frustrating i get it you want to slam your freaking headset i get it
11:51all right well coach let's get a win tonight buddy okay thanks guys yep all right appreciate it pal
11:57pull up for the good guy
