What is Washington getting in this? They are still trying to compete and Eller a big piece of their depth. Why are they moving him for 2 mid round picks?

Give us jake evans and a 2nd maybe more

Connor McMichael. They need space cap.

You need space to give a spot to Connor McMichael.

They need cap space so they are going to retain 50%, for 2 seasons, for a meager return on Eller? Also what the hell are you talking about? McMichael doesn't take cap space, he's basically a league minimum contract. The space is created by whoever he's replacing.

Who says we need space? We have enough space for 22 players. No need at all to move Eller.

Things that would make this world a better place:

Stop the following trades back to Montreal:

Subban, Eller, Domi, Galchenyuck

And Byron to Ottawa.

Man, I see these trades daily on capfriendly. Those boats have left the harbour. It’s as if people have emotional attachments to these players.

Eller is statistically WAY better than Dvorak and you gave up a 1st + 2nd for him...why would the Capitals give Eller up for pennies on the dollar AND retain cap. "They need space cap" you contradicted yourself lol. Capitals need cap space but retain on a player that is on a great contract.?
