It's looking like Backstrom will at least start the season on LTIR and possibly be retiring which will do two things for the Caps. First, gives them some cap space, and second, makes a massive hole in their 2nd line center role. (does Lapierre or McMichael take that role?)

Also, I would personally agree with the getting younger, and I would like them to give some of their young Dmen like Alexyev & Johanssen a shot instead of signing Braun/Beaulieu.

I also don't hate the goalie trade you made, I just always get attached to players and would hate see a goalie like Sammy who has a lot of potential IMO leave , but Caps are in win-now-mode, so I think this helps that immediate need.

Nicely done!

Isles should take this deal imo. They have an awesome goalie dept and can get the most out of samsonov. They also get younger and save cap space.
