Final Prediction

Sharks do that.

There just isn’t enough value for the caps to take on Sheary’s contract and give up Dowd there. There’s a piece missing

With no retention I think the Sharks do that

Given our asset pool, what would the Caps be interested in to get it done? What can be changed or added?

That’s the problem - Tampa has so few assets that they’re gonna be willing to move. I’d imagine a team wants a second to eat that full Sheary contract solely because of the term, the caps may fetch a late first or early second for Dowd, and I’m pretty indifferent on the Edmundson return although I feel like some team is gonna stupidly overpay. There’s no way the lightning move Howard right now unless they’re getting back a far more impressive talent than Dowd, so it’s tough.
