Yes Capo is ready.
With OEL and Chychrun as pillars on the left side there will never be many minutes leftover for Capo or POJ. We could trade from the bottom of that list of four and get a decent return. I'd rather trade from the top of that list and get a killer return.
OEL to Colorado at trade deadline for Ottawa's unprotected 1st (2019)
We'd have two picks in the top ten, maybe both in the top five.
Use OEL'S cap to shop in the UFA market. Duchene, Stone, Panarin, Karlsson are targets if there's a new owner who wants to show off. Dzingel, Donskoi, Nyquist, Stralman are depth palyers that might have better value.
Roster next season:
Gally - Stepan - Fischer
Keller - Hughes - Schmaltz
Dzingel - Dvorak - Garland
Grabner - Richardson - Vinnistroza
Crouse - Merkley
Chychrun - Hjalmarsson
Gogo - Stralman
Capo - Demers

tl;dr? Capo is ready. Make some room.
