Selling off Orpik's contract and bringing him back for $1mil is freaking brilliant for this team. Saved them what....$5mil a year. I like Orpik...scratch that... I LOVE Orpik at $1mil. He brings so much more to the team than you see on the ice. Plus he actually HITS people, and Blocks shots.
He's old and slow, but he is a Freaking STEAL at $1mil...especially for THIS Caps team. He will look even better in the playoffs (if the the ole geezer lives that long :lol: )
Jensen has stepped up and made Orpik a little less valuable, but he is still has value for this team.
GMBM gets an A from me over the last couple years. You can't get EVERYTHING you want (trade Bura, trade Bura, trade Bura), but he has done well, especially considering the contracts they have had to work around. Didn't/don't like the Orlov contract (or the Carlson one), but at the time, they did not seem WAY overly out of bounds and both guys had Caps over a barrel. I made at Orlov over his shitty decline in play this year, not GMBM.
Not sure about next year. IF Orpik would play for $1 mil, I'd sign him again for sure...you could always move that contract to a team that needed D leadership if our younger guys (Ziggy, Lewington, Hobbs, big Russian I can't remember) made improvements and were ready for NHL full time.
