Description

Capitals are facing some tough injuries which are probably gonna derail their season. If they won't make the playoffs this year from injury, I say they should take advantage of this deep draft and sell to increase lottery chances. They have a ton of guys on expiring contracts to trade out as rentals around the trade deadline to get some draft and prospect stock.

It’s be pretty cool if WSH and PIT tank hard this season and end up getting Bedard and Michov as the next Crosby/Ovi

The equivalent of 2 1sts for any pending UFA is pretty nuts. EDM passes easily. Given the team hasn't traded their 1st over the past few years and Holland has said he won't move a 1st for rental, I think you're targeting the wrong team with Orlov. Jensen as a rental might be of interest if they can find a way to move Barrie.

Highly doubt Caps miss. Even with all their injuries they are quite good. BUT If they look lke they are out of the chase come January I'm all for something like this.

I think that price for Orlov is a bit steep for Edmonton and they really should try resigning him.

Thats a lot for a rental. Bourgault is important because edmonton is low on skilled RW prospects. Very low chance edmonton is able to resign a russian.
