Because Caps fans want Green, though they can get him without giving up Bowey. A 1st could get the deal done, though Washington also may have to add something smaller too, like maybe a 4th or a 5th. You have to remember Green was an all-star. Sure, a) he isn't on a great team, and b) it's just one year, but still if it's for the playoffs it's still the same year, though you never know, he may not be as good of a fit in Washington as he is in Detroit. But still, it's the same season.
So now, about the fact that he's not on a very good team, Larkin has been pretty good this season and he made it ahead of him, and he was one of only two defensemen on the Atlantic division team, though Detroit's likely not going to sign Green, and Hedman was injured. So i can't say that because he was ahead of Hedman means that he's a superstar, or having a superstar year. Though he made it ahead of Ekblad still. Anyway, the whole all-star rules, well, they're not bad rules, they're just confusing.
You know what? They're not confusing, but how good you have to be to make it can get kind of confusing because of partly injuries but mainly how you have to have at least one player from each team. Anyway, back to Green, a 1st round pick should get it done, or maybe a little bit more is needed, but he won't cost too much as Detroit probably isn't going to sign him.
