It makes sense. Caps may be looking for depth for their seventh d-man. May want Schilling and Schmidt to stay in Hershey for their playoff run.

 

[BrooklynCapsFan]

Leopold + Dubinsky for Green?

but at 2.25 million and no cap room?

You think Gleason already went to Trotz and said "I can't play with this guy".

I would love to flip Green for some picks/prospects or 2C/1RW and use the cap space to get a much cheaper replacement.

I would think given Leopolds year, the Blue Jackets would need to eat almost 50% of the salary.

 

[ChibiPooky]

Watch it be Clarkson. For Vrana.

If so Tinordi has to be going back as part of the package.

true but even 50 percent we cant afford

 

[hockeykicker]

wait a minute, isnt atkinson on the same team? lol

 

[RandyHolt]

What is the skinny on Leo? I see he is a vet left shot. Play a heavy game?

Schmidt slowly coming back, Orlov and Erskine terminally out, maybe Trotz didn't like Schilling, so we are looking to add depth on D.

Or, is this all about moving Green.

You watch your dirty ****ing mouth!

Could Greenie be a goner? Oh boy.

 

[stanleycaps18]

Blues are going to be TOUGH this Spring.

well at 2.25 mil and even if we only pay half we cant afford him so im so lost

 

[BiPolar Caps]

Anyone have a better source then NHL Numbers for the Capitals current cap situation. Have any of the local reporters provided updates on he cap?

I want the Blues, Sharks and Caps to win the Stanley Cup this year. Poor ********.

Leopold has barley played this year. Certainly doesn't play a 'heavy' game. Pretty good skater and has a good first pass.

Trotz and company may want to keep Schilling/Schmidt in Hershey for their playoff run. Who knows?

 

[Stewie G]

Leopold at 50% + Atkinson for Mojo?

 

[stanleycaps18]

But salary would have to go to make any more deals so any trade going forward would impact a roster player.

 

[hockeykicker]

Leopold at 50% + Atkinson for Mojo?

that has to be it.

 

[butters8814*]

still have a feeling the caps still want a first line winger with backstrom and ovie
