Seattle takes Ryan Johansen and Vladimir Tarasenko in the expansion draft and works out a side deal that sends them to DC for Kuznetsov, Eller, and Dillon, and potentially a pick or two thrown in on either side.

Seattle ends up with a strong 1C/2C or 1C/3C pair plus a strong D. They also get 3 players for the cost of drafting 2. Caps end up with a replacement at 1C/2C, allowing McMicheal to come in with less pressure on him at 3C, and get another top tier RW, all while shedding about 700k in cap space and without sacrificing depth at any of the spots.

In all honestly I don't see this happening, but I think it would be a great way for the Caps to get a good return on Kuzy while shedding cap and getting slightly younger.
