Kuzy Drouin

that thought crossed my mind the other day. imo drouin will succeed elsewhere because the pressure is too strong here. he can easily score 20-25 goals with the caps. similar age
contract for kuzy may be an issue though

Yeah but since kuzy is a more proven player who hit the 80 pts mark I think its worth taking more money

Drouin would not get a top-six wing spot in WSH, but Kuznetsov sometimes plays #1C in WSH. Two Caps fans said no to this yesterday. I was the more polite one.

"but caps need to save money and drouin is on a shorter deal. Maybe add a contract going back to montreal or a pick going back to wsh?" WSH doesn't need an upgrade from $1.5M Sheary at 3L to nearly $6M Drouin there. They need two middle six centers and a raise for Ovechkin in Kuznetsov's cap space, so they have depth. It'd be Hagelin and Kempny four Drouin, with a pick and a prospect for Kuznetsov. Then they'd flip Drouin to Edmonton or Pittsburgh for whatever.

Why would you trade for a cokehead? 🥳 What a bad influence for Romanov.
