Reasonable Nylander Deal

This is surprisingly one of the mpre fair value Nylander trades I've seen. Not sure if VAN pulls the trigger tho. They already have a ton of young offense and Tanev is pretty much anchoring the D unless im forgetting someone

This trade is tanecmv and a second for nylander.... no that will not get it done. Take out that junk... tanev virtanen would be closer.

I love this trade, because if the Leafs move Nylander for a bag of junk, plus a 0.25 ppg defenseman, the Capitals chances to repeat are still decent.

They aren't looking for another offensive defenseman. They are looking for someone that can play defense

On the right side, they need both. They have a tough guy, a rookie, and a 38 year old lefty.

That's why I keep posting Niskanen, but Carlson would also solve it. Either one would halve the Caps' chances at winning back to back, but if next year might be a lockout, then it might be an okay time for Washington to think three and four postseasons ahead, by which time Bowey should handle a top four role pretty well. Carlson would cost a whole lot more than just Nylander, though. Like, Nylander, Liljegren, Sandin, 1st? But Toronto would win the Cup this year, and maybe two more of the next seven.
