How about Connor McMichael... big goal last night to start the comeback for team Canada to a win over USA.

canadiancapman:
I didn't realize this but heard yesterday during that broadcast that McMichael is leading the OHL in points this year. That's pretty impressive. Seems like another great pick late in the first round

canadiancapman:
McMichael moved up to Canada's top line after Lafreniere (this year's projected #1 draft pick) got injured vs the Russians.

The question is, should he be NHL level soon, where would we put him?  We’d have to move Vrana or Oshie our wait til someone’s contract expires.


The best/great move is trade him for several prospects/picks to develop while waiting for some of these idiotic contracts to expire

Why would we have to move Vrana or Oshie. As a rookie his cap hit won’t be that much so that won’t be a problem.  As far as where he would play, my guess is that he will start on the third line.  However, I doubt whether he will make the Caps next season but I can see him making the team the following year.
