EDM easily says no if we wanted chychrun we would have got him last year we aren’t gonna overpay and pay more than what the sens got him for

Also what makes you think teams overpay at deadline I never heard thay before so I wanna know why you think that lmao

I'd do the trade if they changed the first to 2025, and took out one of broberg and bourgoult.

I doubt that the Caps are going to be in a position to buy, especially at the expense of Lapierre and a second rounder. If the Caps were to deal a prospect/pick, it'd be for a younger full-time NHLer that either has term on their contract, or has team control through restricted free agency. Any trade to bring in a player that will play significant minutes will look a lot more like the Sandin trade with Toronto last year instead of Tarasenko on an expiring contract.

Bourgoult out and to 2025 and I agree. They can have Broberg.

Caps aren’t interested in tarasenko. They are too much of a bubble team to be looking at older rentals

Would make things a lot closer to fair but isn’t he an LD oilers are stacked on LD already

He is a LH dman, but has extensive experience playing on the right side.
All this being said, I'd prefer someone who is more defensively responsible, so he can play with Nurse. I don't think Chychrun fits that bill now.

Trade deadline deals usually are overpayments because teams are desperate to make a move before the playoffs. It’s why you see moves like Chiarot, Foligno, And many others.

Hm oilers didn’t overpay for Bjugstad or Ekholm so idk

There are countless examples at every deadline. Tyler Toffoli to Calgary is another recent one. Just last year you had Tampa overpay for Jeannot, Toronto overpay for Jake McCabe, and LA overpay for Gavrikov.

Here’s some historic examples:

Bob Lorimer and Dave Cameron from NYI to Colorado Rockies (Devils) for the Devils 1st rounder, which was used to pick Pat Lafontaine.

Jerry Korab from Buffalo to LA in exchange for LA’s first, which became Phil Housley.

that's gonna be a no from DC
