The Washington Capitals are keeping Spencer Carbery on board for the long haul.

Washington and Carbery have agreed to terms on a multi-year extension. His contract was set to expire at the end of next year.

“We are pleased to extend Spencer to a new multi-year contract,” general manager Chris Patrick said. “Since joining our organization, Spencer has played an important role in the development of many of our young players while also earning the respect and trust of our veteran leaders. His communication skills, strong relationship-building, and ability to connect with players at every stage of their careers have made him a great leader of our club. In addition, he has helped foster a positive and accountable culture within our team, creating an environment where players can grow and succeed. We have been extremely impressed with his commitment, professionalism, and passion for coaching, and we are excited to see him continue building on that success.”

Carbery replaced Peter Laviolette as the Capitals head coach back in 2023 and has been behind the bench for the last three seasons. In 2024-25, he led the Capitals to a first-place finish in the Eastern Conference, which won him the Jack Adams Trophy, and has helped Washington to the playoffs in two of three years as head coach.

Through 246 regular-season games, Carbery has registered a combined record of 134-83-29 for a .604 points percentage.
