In this edition of Locked on Capitals Mike Vogel of Washingtoncaps.com joins me as we talk about the state of the Capitals. What went wrong with the last season and what they need to improve on to be more competitive next season. We talk about the aging core of this team and how it can be difficult to match up with some of the other teams in the league. The talk about how injuries played a major role in their struggles. Later they talk about Connor McMichael and how he should get a longer look on the Caps next season. To close out the show they talk about Evgeny Kuznetsov and his struggles and is it possible for a new coach to get his career going.
