Depending on the other moves the Caps make in the offseason, I wouldn't particularly mind this. Would have to rely on the Caps moving one of McMichael, Lapierre, or Bordeleau to the wing though.

Playoff Lines Game 1
Honestly can't see Leonard signing at this point, feels like there's too much running against it. Neither Smith nor Perreault have left BC yet, he could go back for another year to finish the job he started this year, but most importantly I just kinda don't see a spot for him. They won't bump Patches or Oshie out of the lineup, NAK and Malenstyn have been so effective with Dowd that they're likely safe, and I can't see someone like Milano getting the boot in favor of Leonard. Think we're going to have to wait another year to see Leonard (and I will be acquiring a Leonard 50th anniversary jersey no matter what my wallet has to say about the matter)

Washington Addresses needs
Firstly, welcome to CF.
On the value, while I'd love to see this for the Caps, I don't see it making much sense for Nashville. At this point, Kuemper's contract is a negative, and the 1st is probably the only thing of true interest to the Preds. Nashville could likely get much better offers for a decent defenseman and a bonafide #1 goalie from a team like New Jersey, who has a bevy of prospects and picks they could send to Nashville that would be far more valuable than the Caps could offer.

Thread:
Utah Switch
Patches is expiring so he brings no value to Arizona, so really it's just Milano and 2 2nds for Crouse and McBain. This is a fairly quick decline for Arizona, who would be wanting a 1st more than likely for Crouse, as they likely value him similarly to the Caps with Wilson. And speaking of Wilson, I don't particularly like the fit, Crouse feels like he would be a carbon copy of Wilson in Carbery's system and the Caps don't really need another winger in the system who'll score slightly less than Wilson and hit people. Caps need scorers first and foremost.

Well, Pens players have a history of not wanting to go to the Caps... if you exclude Niskanen, Orpik, Sheary, Sprong, Hagelin, Schultz...
Guentzel would take 7x11 with the caps in a heartbeat. He wants to get paid, he's got cups, and he'd be the top scorer on an up and coming team that has plenty of youth on the roster.</div></div>
To be fair, Sprong was acquired for Djoos, but the point is still strong here. Money talks.

Caps aren't looking to add someone like Kampf, so they'd most likely require more to take on him than a 3rd and Rifai. This is the same team that paid a 1st to get out of the Panik contract just a few years ago.

coming home
7x7 I'd say is a bit rough for a center who's currently scoring less than Strome is. Reports from El-Bashir is that they're likely out on any big FAs anyway, as he believes they're more likely to be hunting for buy low guys (like what Strome was) and a Sandin-style trade for a younger player.
Also don't think Cristall or Suz are close to the NHL this year. Would be a disservice to their development to put Cristall, Lapierre, and Miroshnichenko on the 4th line.

Caps likely decline the Timmins trade as they already have a wealth of RD and probably aren't looking to add Timmins as a 3rd pairing guy. I imagine if they target a defenseman it will be someone like Pesce, and would also require them to move Jensen or Van Riemsdyk out.

Obviously now is not really the time to experiment but I'd love to eventually see Ovi-Lapierre-Protas on a line together. Lappy seems to mesh really well with Ovi and I liked the little bit we saw of Ovi and Protas a couple years ago.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>did you just mention MAF like I have some attachment there.... I don't.
Look get over it.
He's not a good leader, and he can't skate. He build a whole career because he can shoot the puck hard standing in 1 place. If you don't believe me, go look at some old power play break downs of the caps.
He sits on his little dot with his stick in the air.... and 4 other guys do all the work.
It is what it is man. he might move 10 feet in the ozone off his little dot.... and you would claim he works like Crosby or McDavid in the Ozone. He don't man. He can't skate, he's slow as hell, and he stands on one place on the ice and everyone knows it.
It's like facing a fast ball pitcher, you know what you are going to get, can you beat it.
but don't come to us all telling us some laughable nonsense about how slow as F Ov can skate.
have a good day!</div></div>
535 5v5 goals, 1549 points, please keep embarrassing yourself lol. It must come as a shock to you that there's more to hockey than just a power play and that Ovi has thrived when the game is at even strength. This is top tier delusion, even most Pens fans aren't this deluded :tearsofjoy

what are they worth
Washington recently re-upped Protas so I don't believe they'll be looking to trade him. Maybe he'll be available in a year or two depending on how far along Miroshnichenko, Leonard, and Cristall are, but currently fits the same role Lars Eller did so they'll likely be hesitant to move him even with a surplus of forwards.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>Look how far you are stretching man. If Sprong is such a great player why has he spent the last two seasons on 1 year contracts from 2 different teams?
I mean really. Take the homer glasses off.
There is plenty of evidence on how bad a leader OV is. Just go look at the video of the games he lost to the penguins left and right with him sitting on the bench pouting half the game.
He's never been a good leader, and caps fans themselves have pointed it out. He's never been a guy to rally his team to win, or lead by example. Other than trying to teach Wilson how to be his little crony thug.
That's not exactly leadership. But hey, keep thinking what you think. It's funny to see people come out and say Sprong is a good player who doesn't struggle finding contracts. Because you know, it's typical to sign good NHL players to 1 year deals to teams that finished the year bottom of the league last year.
Hell maybe the yots should sign him to a 4 mil per x 6 deal if he's so good lol</div></div>
Firstly, lol. Ovi was about the only guy to consistently show up in big games for at least 5 years, except for maybe Joel Ward. He's the guy getting the entire team in the zone before games and going over what they did well after. Video of this is readily available and the guy was in the middle of the huddle game planning during timeouts, the notion he was "pouting" when he was playing 20+ minutes and was the only one scoring is clearly your selective Penguins fan memory. This is the same guy who helped Adam Oates bumble his way into a playoff series in 2012, going from last to first in no small part due to his leadership. There's video after video of him miced up getting people to rally together, it's only ever been him or Oshie to get the troops rallied. You'd think former players, especially those who left on a sour note, would have anything bad to say, but they do nothing but sing his praises as a leader. really makes ya think...
also, on wilson, big lol. Wilson played fourth line for 3+ years with Eric Fehr, Jay Beagle, and Aaron Volpatti among others. Management, not Ovechkin, chose to force him into the grinder role for those years, and blaming Ovi is clearly the Pens fan in you still being mad about Zach Aston-Reese. To claim Ovechkin made him "his goon" is Qanon levels of conspiracy.
And on Sprong, lets see how he gets paid this year. Considering he's a 0.5 ppg winger on a team on the verge of playoffs, I'd say he won't have to worry about money for the near future.

He's know to not be a good captain, for decades. Even WSH fans think this.</div></div>
You have no evidence, no caps fans actually think he's a bad captain, and Sprong is half a point per game, far from "fighting for a contract". If he's "known" to not be a good captain, despite all evidence to the contrary, how bout you show some proof. It's amazing really, everything you just said was wrong.

He's slow and can't skate which is really something they have been trying to hide for years. But everyone knows and it's getting harder and harder to hide... mainly because everyone else is slowing down around him too. Like Oshie.</div></div>

Oshie won't be moved, he's going to retire in DC. Highly doubtful anyone wants to pay for Kuemper either, and responding to his struggles by giving Ned a 5 year deal could be equally as unsavory in about 2 years.
Think you could get more for TvR, think he could return at least a 3rd.
