[trick9]

Talk about great minds think alike I didn't see your post before posting my predicitions, good we're on the same page here

Spot on.

I'd love to have Greiss here as a backup.

 

[txpd]

1. Yes
2. Fabbri, Fiala or Barbashev
3. OHL
4. DC

[DanTHEMan71]

12) The Caps top three trade targets will be?

Evander Kane (if Brouwer is moved and AO back to LW), T. Myers (more of high risk/reward change of scenery type trade), Kulikov.

If we got any of those 3, I would be ecstatic. Kane is just what we need for a top 6 goal scorer to take some of the offensive load off OV. He also takes as many shots as OV does. I could see him reach his potential on a playoff team.

 

[LifetimeUFA]

I would love to see Kane on the same line with 19 and 8, a change of scenery is just what that kid needs

 

[DanTHEMan71]

I would love to see Kane on the same line with 19 and 8, a change of scenery is just what that kid needs

Yep.

That line would be very high-flying and fun to watch as Kane would have to play RW as a lefty. Nicky centering two bonafide snipers playing their off-wings who love to shoot. I wouldn't be surprised to see Kane hit 35-40 goals in that situation.

 

[Langway]

See, this worries me. If Detroit would want Green, the Capitals should want to keep him. If Green is as bad as many here say, Detroit is not going to want him. Just sayin

Hypothetical dooooooooooom.

Detroit wanted Weiss, and that was maybe the worst contract of the summer. Even Holland makes mistakes.

 

[txpd]

so you think Holland is ready to make another mistake
