Dowd >>>>>>> Beagle.
Panik > Virtanen though I guess I wouldn't mind taking a stab at Virtanen

ANA just seems like a sideways move that doesn't improve the Caps and just lose a very important 1st round pick they desperately need.

I love this reasoning, one team acquires veteran leadership, while the other team get younger on D

The player is old, so he has value, the player is young, so he has value, it's a value for value trade

Beagle would improve the teams FO% and help the PK (both areas of need) and I don't mind Panik but Virtanen is in desperate need of a change and may provide a spark.
The Anaheim 2nd and 3rd will likely be high in their respective rounds while the Capitals 1st rounder will probably be in the bottom third.
