Beside the fact that it’s very hard to see these two teams making a trade. I find it hard to believe when they said top 6 player Rust would qualify. He bounces back and forth from 40-50 point seasons which is fine, but can’t really be all that appealing when you’re talking about a contract that has 5+ years on it at 5m+. Capitals certainly can’t ask for much here, but they’d probably be better off just waiting for a different offer given their future uncertainty
