Confirmed Trade: [WSH/SEA] Marcus Johansson (@50%) for Daniel Sprong, 2022 4th round pick, 2023 6th round pick,

[GM Armchair]

So not only did SEattle draft the worst possible team and pass over some quality players they are not even getting back 1st round picks or top prospects... Why the hell did they not take players or contracts for picks like Vegas before or after the expansion draft?

Get out of here you troll

 

[K Fleur]

So Seattle gets the better player and draft picks.

El oh el

 

[illpucks]

Sprong is also one of the only young guys. Good at breakaway and shootout. Yikes if true.

 

[orby]

I don't really understand this from Washington's POV. I don't think Mojo - at this point in his career - is any better than Sprong.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Sprong sucks so I don't think he has any sort of value in this trade. He's a roster dump, he's a warm body that will fill a spot for Seattle.

 

[illpucks]

WTF. Sprong can actually score. April Fools Day is like 10 days away....

I don't think he is any better than any NHL player to be honest...

He's also six years younger and put up similar numbers to Johansson. Good deal for Seattle to pick him up along with a pick.

 

[PG Canuck]

Good get for Seattle. Now let Sprong play.

Currently he is a warm body. Maybe he can do something in Seattle. Doubt it though. Curious as to draft picks. Sprong probably in it for cap reasons.

Sounds like a Pens fan mad that Sid-Sprong didn't reach potential

 

[Caps8112]

little less angry if its true sprong is gone. Mojo sucks but Sprong literally provides nothing if he doesnt score a goal once every 10 games.

 

[NoelVilla]

Caps had Leason and Jonsson-Fjällby in the 4th line last time I watched them so Marcus will help them.

He's good for speed, breakaway, shootout. He's also one of the only young players on the oldest team in the league.

Could definitely see Sprong doing a ton of damage in Seattle. They have nothing like him.

being young and inconsistent on your 3rd or 4th team in your career does not make you an asset. 2 or 3 other teams already said no thank you to sprong. speed and breakaway are nice but not at the cost of being good at anything else

 

[trick9]

Draft picks? Better be couple of 7th rounders.

 

[The Marquis]

The caps had to lose somebody to stay cap compliant if MoJo is retained at 50% even. Sprong is apparently that guy.

 

[Booba]

First time out of 8 trades that Seattle trades for an actual player.

The previous 7 trades all returned picks only.

Don't they have Hags on LTIR?

Can you explain why so many people dislike Sprong? I have watched every game this season and do not see nor understand the portion of the fan base who disliked him. I feel like even if you dislike Sprong you can't look at Mojo and say this is a good trade.

Sprong costs us is 750k
Mojo unless Seattle eats Cap is 4.25

I like my 750k Sprong better
