Capitals players’ dealt with bad internet connections and reporters who had not un-muted themselves yet.

“It says connection lost,” Nicklas Backstrom said. “Can you hear me?”

Sometimes they zoned out without that physically-in-front-of-you-face reporter interaction. There even was some heartwarming cuddling in the Zoom room between TJ Oshie and Jakub Vrana.

It may not look like a normal work setting, but the Capitals are scuffling with the technology during the pandemic just like us.
