Caps have 8,5+3,5(Expected rise). Hopefully Hagelin takes around 2 mill after his weak periods at Pens and Kings this year its a fair contract, but with the play he has showed in Washington will make some team willing to give more. The question is all about Vrana. I guess its time to get him signed long term. Hes not produced as well as Wilson has this year and dont have the overall game Wilson has. Still he produced better than Wilsons last season, but will probably not match Wilsons playoff. Depending on term he should be available between 4-5 as an RFA.
While Connolly I think they can get a cheaper contract the more term he gets. 12 mill is enough to sign those 3 guys, but not enough considering you need a 7th D and 3 more forwards to get to 13. Bura I think is lost and they might get something back if he has a decent playoff. If Caps want all 3 of Vrana, Hagelin and Connolly back they have to trade away something. Only realistic players to trade to get cap are Orlov and Niskanen. Caps have more ready prospects on the left side, but Jensen is better than the 2nd best LD and more ready for a top 4 role. Anyway Caps have a choice to make. Weaken the forward depth or the defence.
