Thread: lotta moves coming this offseason only doing the bigger trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gczer</b></div><div>thats totally fair. I don't follow washington super closely. I don't think he is on the same level as kaprizov even tho he did have a crazy year, it was in the o and kaps doing it in the Khl. not trying to take value away from mchmichael.. Ik you have alexeyev, fehevery and johansen (who hasn't done as well as you would have hoped, but is still a 1 rounder) so I didn't think you would miss alexeyev too much and I just had the time is now mentality due to the window closing really fast and I feel he would provide a big boost to the blueline and give players like carlson a chance to maximize his ability with more rest and better matchups. What would your trade for dumba look like, but it doesn't sound like you want him.</div></div>

Honestly capitals are pretty set at LHD. LucaJo isn’t great I would trade him for a 4th yesterday. Nardella is really really solid. AHL numbers are solid at least. Alexeyev is 1 year away from the NHL and of Ovechkin wants 12m we need ELC. Fehervary is going to be a top 4 next year if not this year. Then the have Siegenthaler who is elite defensively and plays both sides. If we were to trade I would do Orlov 1 for 1 and that‘a be bc don’t have many RHD in our system and that’s gun to my head. IMO Orlov is better and cheaper but they are comparable talents Orlov like is said gets the edge. Mcmichael is 2 years away from being NHL imo but when he arrives he’ll be ready and really good. I like Jensen and how he played at the end of the year. Thinking we could sign DeMelo and be set.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Paul13</b></div><div>Your entitled to your opinion, I disagree though. Dumba is fine defensively as long as his offense is working it's just when it's not going he presses and has stupid turnovers. Most of the time when he is out there I'm not worried at all about his defense. I think you have Orlov over rated. My point is though that what the Wild really need is a center and Alexeyev isn't a center. If I'm Washington I wouldn't want to move McMichael because of the lack of young forwards in the pipeline that have a NHL future, but if the Wild move Dumba they need to comeback with a center.</div></div>

ACTUALLY you are overvaluing Dumba and undervaluing Orlov. Orlov is much much better defensively and slightly worse offensively. I would strongly encourage you to look at both players advance numbers. Orlov is better.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Paul13</b></div><div>Right I guess if you're Guerin you try Zuccarello for Turris straight up and when nsh laughs you could throw this Parise deal out and see but part of me says Parise only has 2 years left before his back says he is done and then it's the LTIR without a recapture penalty. As far as Washington I'm not going to be much help. The Washington 1st is later than I would like Alexeyev is a good prospect not sure if he is expansion draft exempt, but that would be important, Jensen is just the Wild taking on salary he isn't really moving the needle in this trade. To be honest I'm not saying either trade can be done as a 1 for 1 but if the Wild were to trade Dumba to Washington I think they need to get a deal that bring Kuznetsov back or McMichael.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gczer</b></div><div>I don't really see anyone taking on zuccarello just because his contract doesn't get that much cheaper, his play has been declining with 4 more years left so if you buy him out your not in a good place. You could trade him but I think his value is seen as low and your better just burning a contract year and hoping his value goes up with his play imo. I think your right looking at it again. I overvalued Jensen and wsh could throw more in. what would you add?</div></div>

Hey Washington fan here. Zero chance they give you a 1st and Alexeyev. He’s our best D prospect and Dumba absolutely sucks at defense. He’s a great offensive D man but we have Carlson for than and he’s miles better than Dumba. Dumba would be our 3rd best Dman behind Carlson and Orlov. Whoever suggested mcmichael being trade for him absolutely nuts. That’s the same as me suggesting you trade Kaprizov and a pick for Orlov. Jensen is much much better than you are giving him credit for also. Rather overpay a FA than like Vatanen than give up this type of return for Dumba. Sorry don’t mean to sound like a dck but that trade is an overpayment by Washington
