Caps acquire Hagelin
Surreylily:
Reserving judgement at this time. :-|
Beaglefan2:
I'm not a big GMBM fan but I think the Hagelin move is all upside for him. Unlike Shattypants, Hagelin could make a huge difference and there is no downside. He didn't give up much and he isn't replacing anybody that matters much. He will definitely be good on the PK and I bet his speed really helps.
The only thing I am a little concerned about, as noted before, is he might be a jerk in the lockerroom - he has bounced around a lot!

I don't know much about Hagelin, but interested to know why he has a reputation as a locker room jerk?

I don't think there is any hard evidence of that. But this will be his 5th team at 30 years old, usually that means he doesn't fit in well in the lockerroom
