Created by: netminder71

Team: 2023-24 Washington Capitals

Initial Creation Date: Jan. 24, 2024

Published: Jan. 24, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Mostly unrealistic as GMBM would never do anything smart or shed a bad contract he was the creator of...but oh well this season is shaping up to tank anyway. I would like to see Iorio, Suzdalev, Dube get some ice down the stretch.

Also getting as many 2025 draft picks as you can would be smart b/c that is the key time to enter the nearly post-Ovi rebuild.

Trades

WSH

2024 5th round pick (CGY)
2025 3rd round pick (TOR)

TOR

Edmundson, Joel
2025 5th round pick (WSH)

WSH

2025 3rd round pick (EDM)
2025 5th round pick (EDM)

EDM

Jensen, Nick

Additional Details:

Most teams will want TvR who is much more reliable and on a cheaper deal, but Jensen is def available as a cap dump and space where Iorio could develop.

WSH

2024 2nd round pick (MTL)

WPG

Mantha, Anthony

Additional Details:

He is of course scoring now that he is in need of a new deal somewhere. He could help a playoff push team at TDL. Maybe a middle pick back...?

WSH

SEA

Aubé-Kubel, Nicolas
2024 5th round pick (CGY)

Additional Details:

NAK is garbage and takes tons of selfish penalties. Please shed this scourge and go back to the gritty and smart 4th liners that DC has known,

WSH

Can we please god get Siegs back?

NJD

Kuemper, Darcy

Additional Details:

Darcy couldnt stop a beach ball with a barn door. This was an awful signing that sounded great on paper.
