Boy - Desharnais is a big rig! I think Big Mac’s time with the Caps is over - maybe he retired?


This team has gotten a lot tougher to play against and could be really good. We should score a lot more not only because of Tuch and kyrou but our D with Chicky and Hutson will be very aggressive.


If you cap it off with another great year from LT, this team could challenge anybody in the playoffs.

i dont mind if the big RD is a somewhat of a pylon ....we needed 1 guy capable of clearing the crease.  we have enough figure skaters back there.  I dont think 4 yrs at 4m is bad for a 30 year old RD.... (shittsburgh is paying 4m per for a 34 year old TVR)
 
Glad to see TVR gone...2 years for 4m is more than i would have paid to keep him.
Also JC gets only 2 year deal at 8.5.  Again more than i would pay, but only two years and less than what was expected.  Wonder what Carolina offered him.  He must not have gotten any real great offers.


good for Duhaime getting a deal.
the other pickups look like utility fill in guys.  Needed a 4th liner for Duhaimes spot.  Where will Jenner play?  Can he win a faceoff?

Yea, who knows what the fuck they're doing.. But Im here for it!


Don't really like the old dudes tbh.. Thought we were getting younger and faster, but these two aint either.


Heard the RD is big, physical, clears crease, blocks shots, pk, etc.. They mention everything except if he can skate. Someone said he was a pylon. lol


Good for Carly!! Screw the Lightning too, but double screw the Hurricanes!!

Caps needed an extra D man to start the season at a minimum. If reports are accurate Sandin will be on LTIR until November.



Carlson signs a 2 year for $8.5M per in Tampa

I’ve always loved Boone Jenner but I don’t love the contract at his age. I don’t think the Caps are viewed as a top destination and they have to give an extra year or two to the better free agents to get them. Should be good for the next two years though. Willy will still be the Captain.


I don’t know much about the defenseman they signed but I thought they would just pick up a good bench guy that could fill in for a while. Hope he is physical.


Saw that Pittsburg signed TVR. They just love our players!

Caps singed a couple more guys at less than $1M per, it appears to fill a couple holes in Hershey.

Sammi has gotten better, but this kind of reporting is a full time job. I don’t think she fully understands that.

I trust Sammi Silber over that website..


But, here is some encouraging news, I guess.

Another interesting twist here is Jenner was the captain in Columbus the last few years. If OV doesn’t come back everyone here assumed Wilson would get the C.

They now only have 3.56m left in cap space..


This says they have $7M in cap space. Still a little thin for an OV contract.
