Watching Bura's hot streak it had occurred to me as well that GMGM thinks he's finally got it, even though we all know Bura doesn't know what "it" is.
The team was on fire in San José, gotta wonder where that's been all season, but as long as they keep it up its the right time of year for it. This team still needs help on Dfence though. Quality help too, not another Shitpants trade, and not a rental.

LOL Alta!
Believe it or not, I actually borrowed that expression from a bottle of hot sauce, that I saw while in one of those Spice and Sauce stores!
Yes, it’s brand name is actually “Smack my ass and call me Sally”! There were other good ones also!
“Woman Scorned”
“Butt Welder”
Just to name a few...LOL

I do like the Bura/Orlov trade idea! That would be my wish list trade!
2 things I see working against it, though.

Happy Trade Deadline Day
First one: Nyquist to San Jose
His NTC made it tricky, but Holland still got two picks for him. This rebuild is fun as hell witness! Moving good young tradable players to make room for their several great prospects, and collecting draft picks for (reliable rumours say), The Captain to take over next year.
Even if you don’t like em, this fun to watch!!

Are we done do you think? With player swapping, I mean.
Would love to see Burka gone. He is dead weight. Worse than dead weight. He is not just a non factor, he is a negative factor. He is SO SOFT on the puck. Even if his O skills would wake up, he still just a breakaway lone gun kind of asset. He just can't hold on to the puck when ANY pressure is on him. His board battles are ridiculous. I would rather see Hagelin on the 3rd line and Burka gone. We have several guys I would rather see on the 3/4 lines than Burky. Jaskin, hell even DSP is a better 4th line guy than Burky. I'd take any of Jaskin, Dowd, Stepho, Boyd, before Burka. With Hagelin's speed, I'd move him to line 3 (he IS a LW) and have Jaskin/Dowd/Boyd/Stephenson on line four. Or if you want, move Boyd or Stepho up to Line 3 and leave Hagelin on 4th line. but I'd like to see him on the 3rd line. I think Boyd/Dowd/Jaskin is a decent 4th line. Swap Boyd/Dowd at C if you like....or swap out Stepho, but I'm okay with any of them
IF Hagelin was brought in specifically to replace Burky, and we have plans to actually move him, then extra BRAVO to GMBM.
I realize his trade value is nothing, but he is a waste of a roster spot on the 3/4 lines. Total waste.
Ship him off to a team that really needs a sniper and could utilize him, and get a draft pick back or bag of old pucks or something. (small bag of old pucks) :snicker:
My only other thought is the Caps are holding onto Burka just to keep him out of the hands of an opponent for the playoffs.
