Value of: Top-6 LW to Washington

[ole ole]

If Mantha is out for the remainder of the regular season, the Caps could use a rental.
They will have around $5M to work with.

Hoffman ?

 

[Alex K]

100%

Something around a conditional 1st.
The condition: Bertuzzi vaccinates

 

[HoseEmDown]

Jankork for Kempny + Iorio/Winnipeg 2nd + 4th?

 

[Djp]

thats about what Fiala has on his current one year deal.

there is something called next years cap. I think OP is looking at put pressure rental market.

 

[GRob83]

I don't see the need. Backstrom is coming back so they have more flexibility now so expect something like this when the rest of the forwards are healthy:

Ovechkin - Kuznetsov - Wilson
McMichael - Backstrom - Oshie
Sheary - Eller - Protas
Hagelin - Dowd - Hathaway
Malenstyn, Sprong

 

[Devil Dancer]

Are the Kraken going to sell? I'd be all over Jaden Schwartz.

 

[north49er]

Copp

 

[HoseEmDown]

Are the Kraken going to sell? I'd be all over Jaden Schwartz.

Yes but it won't be Schwartz they sell. Jankrok and Johansson are LW options, not sure you want Johansson back though. If you make it worth their while they will take back Kempny and possibly Hagelin.

it says 5m the rest of the year on a rental, usually rental is a one year deal not multiple as he is replacing mantha this year not next.

 

[Canuck86]

tanner pearson for a mid round pick

 

[FSL KINGS]

Haglin for Pearson?

 

[Canuck86]

Sure, can you add a 5th round pick? we can give a 6th back

“Something around a conditional 1st.” I appreciated the joke.
I'll joke a little too. Hendrix Lapierre or Connor Mcmichael + 1st +.
I believe in my own version more.
Steve Yzerman will be involved in this deal.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

I can be wrong but he doesn't look like an upgrade over McMichael or Sprong.

Defintely an upgrade defensively he’s a good defensive winger. Offensively he’s alright and chips in occasionally. He’s an upgrade on Sprong but not McMichael imo

an RFA requires salary next years.

 

[DeagleJenkins]

an RFA requires salary next years.

forgot he is a RFA again, well done. could sell him at the draft then?

 

[glenbuis]

drouin 50% retention and a 2022 2nd for washington 1st and hendrix lapperiere

 

[SEALBound]

Yes but it won't be Schwartz they sell. Jankrok and Johansson are LW options, not sure you want Johansson back though. If you make it worth their while they will take back Kempny and possibly Hagelin.

I was just going to suggest getting MoJo back from Seattle

Horrible

Washington adding the 1st is straight DERP

 

[ThePsychicSaw]

Time to bring Forsberg Back

Forsberg 25% retain

for

1st + Lapierre + Hagelin


Playoffs
OV - Kuz - Wilson
Forsberg - Backstrom - Mantha
Sheary - Eller - Oshie
Protas - Dowd - Hath

extra: McMichael, Sprong

I agree, is there even a way Drouin can help the Caps?

 

[StephenPeat]

I agree, is there even a way Drouin can help the Caps?

My disgust at that trade has everything to do with Drouin’s FIT on the Capitals which is HORRIBLE, (how I called it verbatim) and value aside.

Forsberg 25% retain

Yeah about that.

That guy’s in Vegas now.

If I know Brian McLellan, Lapierre isn’t available for ANY Rental.

 

[GreatSaveEssensa]

Ehlers for McMichael and Fahervary?

 

[StephenPeat]

Ehlers for McMichael and Fahervary?

At least Ehlers isn’t a Rental but the Capitals cannot afford him and likely wouldn’t make this trade anyway. Caps cannot afford to exchange ELCs for Vets on term contracts at this stage.

Fehervary is a Top 4D TODAY (currently a great 3D with easy Top Pairing upside), McMichael is a Top 9 F (with easy Top 6 upside). I don’t think there’s a team in the League that will trade equivalent position players on ELCs for Nikolaj Ehlers.
