View episodeThe Capitals made a massive mistake not re-signing Stanley Cup-winning coach Barry Trotz
The fact that the Capitals didn't re-sign their Stanley Cup winning coach after he won a Stanley Cup is still so fucking crazy to me. I know there's money and all that stuff, but how do you win a cup and not bring that guy back? ... He's a fun coach.
