DC_1908:
The biggest names right now are Backes, Martinez and Nurse
Of these, Martinez a left handed D with 2yrs at 4mil is the best option for the Caps. The guy would be our best overall D by MILES. He also has two cups and is a proven playoff performer
SCOUTING REPORT
Is a strong, swift and well-balanced skater with two-way ability. Has solid puck-moving and passing skills, as well as defensive acumen. Usually keeps things simple and limits mistakes. Lacks consistency in terms of offensive production at the National Hockey League level. Is not overly physical, despite pretty decent size. Could stand to shoot the puck more.
The issue is, would we be able to offer enough to the Kings (ie Orlov, SeigyChrist), but more so would GMBM do it.
DC_1908:
Karlsson (SJS) is out for the year. So, SJS will be looking for a right handed D

I've read the Caps only have about $3M of cap space avalible, which means they'd have to trade or wave someone if they brought in another player
Surreylily:
I'd do a straight up trade - Dylan for Smiffy, in a heartbeat.
We lose the salary we gain a Dman. ;)
