Team: 2023-24 Washington Capitals

Initial Creation Date: Dec. 11, 2023

Published: Dec. 11, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

1. So it sounds like the Caps are close on Ethan Bear, so I went with what a deal I saw on another AGM. Dunno what to expect but I'm interested to see.

2. Lot of buzz about Kuzmenko. He's interesting, but any potential deal would have to be made with the idea that eventually Pacioretty will play, and it seems in the not distant future. Obviously, no idea if the Canucks truly want to trade him or not. I'd like to hear Canucks fans thoughts.

I assume Kuzmenko would cost a 2nd + 3rd or 2 x 2nds.

before the season his value would have been a lot higher. I am not sure why Vancouver trades him though. He is a stud.

I wouldn't move him unless a 1st was coming back or a good RD.

Quoting: TMLBRIAN

I'd say that's pretty accurate to the value they'd want in return. They will only move him if it's for another top 6 guy that think is a better fit or a RHD. Or they will have another trade lined up to flip whatever assets they get for that top 6 forward or top 4 RHD.

I'd say the comparison for him would be Tyler Toffoli or Tyler Bertuzzi (if retained).

If Vancouver was moving Kuzmenko, I'd imagine the Canucks would be looking for more of a Toffoli-type deal; Kuzmenko for a roster player + futures rather than better futures.

For Washington, I'd imagine it would be something like McMichael + 3rd+
