Description

IMO Ovi is the guy that can get Michkov to come to the NHL before 2026. Washington can get him at 5OA and have a long term remplacement for Ovi and a prospect that will grow alongside one of his idol.

MTL benefits from this trade as they get some assets for trading down and the Mantha cap dump.

Why is MTL getting the worst pick, the higher cap hit and barely getting rewarded for it?

If Michkov is on the board and Washington wants him that badly it likely costs them their 2024 pick to start and goes from there

Interesting idea but WSH is giving up way too much to move up. They aren't going to pay to swap Mantha for Edmundson as they don't really need Ed, they are set on the left side. 8th to 5th OV won't require too much.

Difference between 5th and 8th isn't that much, and they wont be desperate to move up for Michkov since he probably drops lower anyways.
