because he was. His career resurgence has been nothing but amazing.

"HE WAS" Is the big quotation here lol.

Actually, a 2nd and a 4th.

bit of an overpayment but who cares when you're trying to win the cup again

Maybe they still are. If Stone is on LTIR for the rest of the regular season, they should have enough cap space for Guentzel even after this trade.

I like this one for both teams. Vegas desperately needed another winger with Stone out. They didn’t give up a lot for a rental who’s having a good season and can play in their top 6 when needed.

Washington wasn’t going to get a 1st for him, so the return is reasonable for them. If they like him, they can try to re-sign him in July if Vegas doesn’t extend him first.

Solid trade for all involved but of course the rich got richer. Damn you Vegas!

Good on Wash though for not panic moving Mantha this past off season and reaping the rewards now.
