RochesterExpat Posted June 19 Report Posted June 19 I don't understand the Dubois for Kuemper trade. Can someone explain to me why the Caps were willing to make that trade? Is it simply that they think he's a reclamation project? Quote

Yep they think they can fix him when Columbus couldn’t, Winnipeg couldn’t and LA couldn’t. Imagine how much of a problem you have to be when a team trades a big package for you, signs you to an 8 year big money deal and gives you away after a single season after contemplating buying out the remaining 7 years of your deal.😳 Washington are grasping at straws because Ovi won’t let them rebuild. 2 Quote

OverPowerYou Posted June 20 Report Posted June 20 It’s odd that trades can happen when the finals are still on 2 Quote

Depends on the cost.) 1 minute ago, OverPowerYou said: It’s odd that trades can happen when the finals are still on Technically trades can happen at any time at all. It's just post-trade deadline traded players aren't playoff eligible for their new team, so there's seldom incentive to make such trades. 1 Quote

Doesn’t move the needle much, but he seems like a legit 4th line vet on an attractive contract. As the Jost replacement on the depth chart, sure? Edited June 20 by dudacek Quote

Got a lot of minutes too on a blah Caps team. Somebody who caught your eye, or have heard he’s caught the Sabres’? Not sure why they’d be moving on from him. Quote

PerreaultForever Posted June 20 Report Posted June 20 2 hours ago, OverPowerYou said: It’s odd that trades can happen when the finals are still on Not really. As long as the two teams playing aren't involved you can do whatever you want. The window before free agency is short so some teams want to get things done (or not) so they can go into free agency (and the draft) with clear plan A's or plan B's. 3 hours ago, RochesterExpat said: I don't understand the Dubois for Kuemper trade.

Maybe Ovi will get his buddy Putin to threaten poisoning him if he doesn't play hard. It's a gamble for sure. Quote

thewookie1 Posted June 20 Report Posted June 20 Neither have great analytics; Jensen being worse Quote

We need a 3C, 4C, two 4th line wingers at least and possibly a 2 LW…. and I’m not bodies here. We need real solid players to fill those spots and with a ton of grizzle…. It ain’t happening’ Quote
