<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bradman99</b></div><div>I don’t believe you gentlemen fully understand hockey. The Capitols would definitely benefit from having a quality power play defence man quarterback in Barrie. He has 21 ppp’s for the season, and has been a league leader in that category for the past three seasons. You have quality forwards that would definitely benefit with that contribution and you do not have it now.
Currently you highest ppp scoring defenseman has 6 ppp. It’s sad that comments are made without insight or investigation.
As for Puljujarvi, he would have been second in RW scoring for your team last year after Tom Wilson. Pulu had 36 point (14g,22a) and a +22. Wilson had 52 point, but was only a +18 last season, and your second highest scoring RW Hathaway had only 26 points last season.
My my, you try to provide some reasonable thought into a conversation, but what you get from what I believe is an American is an F-bomb and ignorance. Very sad.
Sucks to be you.</div></div>
Man, I haven't seen a more pompous response on this website in quite some time, especially with the arrogant quote about Americans :tearsofjoy
As for the deal, it is a terrible one for Washington on multiple levels. Firstly, the Caps take on a large amount of Cap to downgrade in multiple different areas.
Barrie, who by nearly every advanced and basic analytic cannot defend to save his life and racks up secondary assists on McDavid brilliance, is a downgrade to Jensen. Washington has no need for a PPQB as Gustafsson (26 points in 46 games) fits the role already (PPP is a poor way to analyze this since the PP doesn't run through the defenseman, but through Ovechkin) and Jensen is far better as a top/second pairing defender who can also PK and is actually responsible in his own end, so Washington downgrades here.
Then Washington downgrades in an even more egregious way, since Pulju is a more expensive winger that is producing less than both Hathaway and MIlano. Washington has no need for forwards like Pulju in their current state since Pulju fits as a top 9 option and Washington has no holes there, so moving a player who's producing more (and is cheaper) to add a player producing less is asinine. It becomes even more asinine when you add Hathaway since again, Hathaway is producing more than Pulju and brings far more value to Washington as a cheap, defensive forward who can PK well and score a bit than Julju does as a dime a dozen forward who doesn't fit the PK.
As for what you bring up last year, even if the league is very clearly a "what have you done for me lately" league, Washington had a bevy of injuries (Oshie, Backstrom, Mantha) and thus points are not an accurate way to analyze Washington's wing depth, and even then last year Washington had multiple RW who outscored Pulju (Sheary, Wilson) and even more who outpaced Pulju before injuries (Oshie, Sheary, Wilson all had better pace) . I won't even get into +/- since it's an inherently flawed stat.
Pulju does nothing for Washington and even with injuries, they have forwards producing better or similar pace on the bench (Protas, NAK) and Barrie is a luxury that downgrades on Jensen where it matters without actually improving the team's powerplay which is why he would be added in the first place. This is an awful deal for Washington to give up MIlano (cheap, top 6 player for them), Hathaway (4th liner who's producing more than Pulju and also PKs), and Jensen (Better defensive presence) for two players that don't help and DC isn't in the business of charity.
