I don't really get this one. Are they gonna break up the Grzelcyk/McAvoy pairing? Or did they just pay a first rounder plus plus for defensive depth and a fourth liner?

Also, Minny wet its beak again lol

I agree getting those two help but that seems like a lot of draft capital. I guess they plan on going all in this year for the cup but it doesn’t leave them a lot to get something else.


Note: Some seem to think the Caps didn’t get enough in return? I don’t see it for a rental.

BlueJackets fans on Twitter and Reddit are acting like this is devastating and Boston was the only possible destination.

OH NO. We're not getting 32nd overall.

I thought Washington raked there. There's a scenario where the Caps get in, face Boston in the first round, cause the upset and that pick is about 10 spots higher than where people thought it'd be.

I dunno. Maybe Orlov's better than I'm giving him credit for.

Bruins do have a tendency of getting that out of guys. Look at Lindholm compared to two years ago.
