Quoting: Hii
I would do that as Ottawa but we don't really need the pieces but Fehervary, McMichael are very intriguing and Vaneck would replace Forsberg, you can then keep Hathaway, but I'd want Johansen too. I think the return is that much as it would take a lot to take Forsberg away from Ottawa as he has been amazing and will likely be the starter next season.
HA! Forsberg is barely a NHLer much less a NHL starter. He is at best a #3 for a team with any goalie depth. Ottawa has had such poor goaltending over the last 5 years that someone finally manages to sneak under 3.00GAA and he is considered starter quality. If Ottawa can get something for him they should, but whatever the deal is the other team lost that trade.
Washington counters with:
Forsberg, Paul, Mete, 3rd for Hathaway, Johansen
Actually, no.
Forsberg has no value to the Caps. Sansonov, Vanecek, and Copley are all better. Fucale potentially even out duels him making Forsberg 5th on the depth chart at best.
Mete has no value period, even as depth. Small, can't clear a puck much less a body. Not worth the paperwork for the Caps to trade for then waive.
Washington counters with Paul for Hathaway
