Team: 2019-20 Washington Capitals

Initial Creation Date: Jun. 25, 2019

Published: Jun. 25, 2019

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

With a qualifying Offer to Bura, No Niskanen, No Connolly, same team but add Gudas and a 4th liner like Acciari for PK. Not very satisfying. Not sure this is a Cup winning team and could struggle to make the playoffs. BMGM tell me it ain't true.

This is true. Except no QO to Stevie, so re-sign Walker to a cheapie deal at minimum.

Also give Vrana $3.5 x 2
Burky $3.25 x 1

No to Noel Acciari, just bring in Kody Clark as a big body grinder or Brett Leason!

Well the lines are obviously off (Hagelin 2nd line for example)

Defense will be:
Kempny Carlson
Orlov Jensen
Djoos/Siegenthaler Gudas

This defense isn't worse than last year considering that Niskanen declined pretty fast in the past two years and Gudas has pretty good advanced stats and will be a good 3rd pairing guy if he doesn't get suspended much lol.

But yeah, I'd say this team isn't deep enough with the current bottom 6.

If Burky can post something close to connolly numbers, this team is better imo. Gudas upgrade over Nisky, Vrana & Willy another year of growth. I think Kempny health is a huge key though.

lol this team got so much better. Gudas > Orpik, Jensen > Niskanen with Siegenthaler and Djoos getting better. The defense is amazing. Offense will be amazing as per usual. I still have faith in Bura, but we'll see. If he doesn't work out just trade him and upgrade.

I honestly agree!!! I mean the capitals will be fine. The defense is way better and the top 9 is similar I’m not that worried

Exactly. No way in hell this team is struggling to make the playoffs unless some big guys get hurt for a good period of time. The PK will also get much better with Hagelin and Gudas additions.

Yup. We will have a solid squad. Connelly is gone but who’s to say bura doesn’t fill in and produce the same numbers. Connelly shooting percentage was insane

Neither Clark or Leason are ready. Hershey is a wasteland for ready forwards. If not Acciari, we need some grit, with PK talent on the 4th line in the short term.
