Seigs is the only one I wouldn’t bench right now. I could see Jensen doing better with a different pairing, and as I noted a few games ago, I’m not sure Kempny is fully healed. I think the odd man out in my opinion is Orlov. I’d love to see Carlson get scratched, but he’s making too much money. Fereheverwhatever is pretty close to a full time job in DC too. So, maybe trade Orlov, then dump either Jensen or Kempny if their game doesn’t pick up to make a spot for the kid.

So what do we think the pairings will be?

Seems like a good move. But 1 move doesn't turn a garbage defense into an elite defense overnight. I think coaching is a much bigger problem...

My post from 2/4:
If the Caps really wanted to make a run at this thing, they'd pursue Brenden Dillon from SJ. He's only a -3 on a bottomfeeder and leads the team in hits with 161. He sounds exactly like what the doctor ordered to shore up this defense.
Guess someone was reading our forum. ;D

Agreed. It's one step in a multi step process.
