Thread: Montreal Canadiens signed Sami Niku (1 Year / $750,000 AAV)

Damn, was hoping the Caps could have picked him up. Regardless, great no risk signing by Bergevin.

So we trade them both for Middling returns? Jokes aside, While I can see that being true, I just don't its the right move for the caps given the salary cap and positional needs.

McGinn, Rodrigues and Heinen don't get you anywhere close to Samsonov.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>capsfan2121</b></div><div>Ok do you think this team win a cup</div></div>

Maybe. Adding Gurianov gives some better scoring but doesn't help the potentially weak left side of the defense. This team would need a good amount of momentum, the defense to outperform all expectations, and the goaltending to be solid throughout to have a good chance at the cup. In my opinion, Gurianov just isn't the best addition if your giving away Alexeyev and a 1st, as I would much rather have a good LD to replace Orlov or Kempny than a winger that fills the exact same role as Mantha.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>capsfan2121</b></div><div>I think he could be a 35+ goal scorer with guys like backstrom and others around him</div></div>

Thats quite possible, but the salary cap just wouldn't allow it. They would need to probably move one of Mantha, Oshie, or Orlov to make it work and I doubt they give up on Mantha so soon, that Oshie waives his NTC, or that they give up on orlov, which the Caps seem to have an obsession with keeping no matter what. I don't think its worth the risk when you consider all of the downsides.

Thread: Denis

No thanks. Gurianov is good but not good enough to give up a 1st and your best LD prospect when you consider that he will demand more money than the Caps can afford next year and they already have a 2LW in Mantha.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ricochetii</b></div><div>I'd love this but don't think Washington would trade Eller. Otherwise Chiarot and a 3rd should be more than enough.</div></div>

I don't think they will this year but come this offseason, if McMichael plays well this year, I could see them looking to move Eller for more cap space.

Thread: Finally getting EK65 a cup

Caps probably aren't looking to trade sprong, he is one of only a few good young wingers they have, they probably look to keep him long term.

Thread: 3 Years

Caps say no. Losing the big grit of the team and two good prospect/young players for a guy who doesn't make the team that much better, and a late 2nd round pick isn't worth it. They would be much better off going elsewhere if they want a better RW.

Thread: One under-appreciated rookie from each team

I'm excited for Fehervary but I really think the most under appreciated Caps prospect is Protas. He's shown a lot of potential and I'm excited to see what he can do when he comes up in the next couple years.

He seems to be a faster hags, i dont know about shot, but it doesn't seem smart to mess with the chemistry the 4th line had just for the sake of having someone younger.

Thread: Trade that almost happened - Blues side

Man, Caps fans should be jumping for joy that this didn't happen. I don't know if they win in 2018 without Oshie on the team, or realize they need to make different moves after the Shattenkirk trade blows up in their faces.

Forum: Armchair-GMTue at 9:42 am

Thread: Bring in the youth

Not this year. Caps fans seem to be down on them coming into this year but had this team not been a walking hospital ward it definitely could have beaten Boston. Maybe next year but no reason to break up the 4th line or force Leason or AJF on the team before they are ready this year.

Forum: Armchair-GMMon at 7:24 pm

Thread: What now

Doubtful that Orlov plays on the right instead of Van Riemsdyk, which could allow Washington to let Kempny go and get a depth defenseman for cheaper.

I would guess that Eller moves to the 4th line next year if nothing else changes at center so that McMichael can get more meaningful minutes. Eller would still be on the PK but would step aside for McMichael knowing he can leave as an FA the next year if he wants to.

It would be nice to bring back both goalies but I don't see it happening unless there is no interest in Vanacek.

Forum: Armchair-GMMon at 7:13 pm

Thread: Opening night lines

Unless something has changed in the last couple weeks, It sounds like Fehervary will be the 3rd LD instead of Irwin. I also wouldn't be surprised if the Caps start the game with Wilson, Dowd, and Hathaway and they start a brawl immediately. Otherwise these seem mostly right, though possibly switch Kuzy and Backstrom.

Thread: Washington Capitals Prospect DIscussion

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>capsfan2121</b></div><div>How do you think martin fehervary and Connor McMichael in the lineup</div></div>

Not sure what you mean by this, but if your asking how they will fit in the lineup I expect Fehervary to be the 3rd LD on opening night and to probably play most of the year unless he struggles mightily. As for McMichael I think we might see him near the end of this year as a 3/4C to fill in if players are injured, but otherwise I don't see him starting in the NHL this year unless there is an injury like I already said or if we trade away a C.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>krakowitz</b></div><div>I like the one on the Bruins' forum page, so I figured doing one for the Caps would be fun too. Ask or state anything about Capitals prospects here.

Quick question for the Caps fans: Given our deep pool of defense prospects, who do you see being the top six in 3 years? I see it looking something like Orlov, Carlson, Bowey, Djoos, Siegenthaler, Johansen, with Hobbs in the mix as well. What do you guys think?</div></div>

Kinda Crazy to see how much prospects situations can change in just a few years and how most of these players are gone or still in the AHL.

And to add on to this, the Caps may not want to go for him anyway with Fehervary and Alexeyev ready to play full time next year.

Thread: Evander Kane

I wonder what happens with his contract if the part about betting on games turns out to be true and he gets banned from the league. Would they take a buyout penalty or would they go free since its out of San Jose's control?
