Trade deadline 2024: March 8
alta:
Caps have two UFAs left, Pacs and Aubé-Kubel. Hopefully a few guys from Hershey are ready to step up because these low round picks are near useless.

Hey - a year ago they traded a 3rd and a 7th for Edmundson and this year they got back a third and a 5th - so they came out ahead! Wahoo, if we keep moving up from 7th round picks to 5th round picks, we will be back in the Finals in no time!
The big question is who is next - Dowd? They have held him out of games and he has probably been healthy. He could actually bring us a decent return. Maybe a goalie? Lindgren would bring a decent return as well and since the have a couple young goalies ready to come up, that might make sense. It would be great to trade Keumper and keep Charlie, but nobody is taking the Keumper contract.
Watch and see what the Pens do. They will get a crazy haul for Guentzel - a 1st, a 2nd and a player, and then they will resign him in the summer.

Hmmmm - Darcy is "sick" and not skating today.....

Guess we just need to pray we hit on a diamond in the rough nobody saw coming. Very very hard to do, but I guess anything is possible. Cause like Ice said, we're in an endless loop of mediocrity for the foreseeable future.

It looks like we will use all those pics on trades in the offseason maybe. GMBM makes very 'safe' moves. He does what he says and is predictable. Will that get a young team over the top?
