Caps Coach Trotz to Report on First Year As Coach Wednesday at NPC Luncheon

Washington Capitals Coach Barry Trotz will discuss the performance of Washington's NHL franchise during his first year at the helm and will look ahead to next season at a National Press Club luncheon Wednesday, July 8. Trotz is completing his first year with the Capitals after leading the Nashville Predators for 15 seasons. He ranks third all-time in both games coached and wins with a single franchise. No stranger to the region, Trotz spent five seasons as coach of the Capitals’ primary developmental affiliate in the American Hockey League. He became coach of the Baltimore Skipjacks in 1992 after one season as an assistant coach.
