I don't smell disgusting, musky, and rancid

The Caps did good by Trotz in accepting his resignation and, further, in allowing Lambert to meet and presumably negotiate with Trotz's new team. Trotz has to knock the Caps/their offer at least a bit, because if he doesn't, it's even more clear that his primary interest is the $$$. Plus, it helps to maintain the illusion (?) that he was behind the team's adjustments. Does Lou really know what he's buying?
Caps also benefit by cutting the ties with Trotz prior to the draft. To the extent that BMac wants Rierdon's input on needs/moves/etc, I'd expect TR to be more engaged if Trotz is formally gone and TR is anticipating getting the HC job.
