Connor McDavid money?
Ovi says it's not about the money at this point, but he wants Connor McDavid money? From a cash-strapped team? I'm sorry but a 35 year old Alex is not worth a 24 year old McDavid at this point.
From a marketing standpoint he's probably worth 12.5m but that's +3mil MORE in cap hit per year the Caps already can't afford. You'd basically have to subtract one more 3 mil dollar player from current roster to make that work. And that's with us currently paying Samsonov peanuts which will HAVE to change in a couple years.
Mostly I like Ovi's comments and sentiments in the RMNB article which is nice to hear.
Is a 35-40 year old Ovi affordable at 12.5 million for five years to THIS broke ass team? And I mean Cap space broke ass.

i wouldn't have given mcdavid $12.5M a year, and now that the cap is frozen for a couple three years those contracts are going to hurt bad
alta:
I know he can, the only question is wether or not he does it in D.C.

Is it weird that three of the top 7 goals scorers in history played for the Caps?
