not enough for fowler

I’d prefer not to take that fowler contract. Also, the Ducks have said they’re working on a contract with Silfverberg. I see both of them staying in Anaheim and honestly Orlov won’t go anywhere either.

I can’t see silfverberg staying. Wouldn’t be a good move for him or the organization. Stranger things have happened though.

Post the website where it says he’s gonna be very active I’m interested

Yes, please. I spoke to a "mid-level" media relations friend of mine who works for the Caps (just yesterday). Someone who attends every PR and GM meeting and who helps draft the exact statements that come from the mouths of the GM, AGM, and others...we IM'd and voice called while the Caps slept thru the Boston game yesterday...his exact words...from GMBM's exact words.

"We are looking forward with any moves we are making. Clearing salary cap to retain our core. Bolstering draft positions. Protecting for upcoming expansion. Hockey trades player for player or using the talent pool to solidify weak areas."

- First off, this means using trade chips: Bura, all the LHD depth down the charts, maybe Riley Barber?
- Secondly, re-signing Copley ensures Samsonov stay in development mode in the AHL for next year and gives the Caps a year to make the decision on re-signing struggling and aging Holtby, or making a move of their franchise netminder to promote Samsonov if ready, and have an NHL caliber #2 in Copley. Also having Coley under contract protects the franchise netminder in the Expansion draft. It is a smart move getting him ~$1M/yr.
- Third, draft pick bolstering: GMBM thinks they've done a great job creating defensive and goaltending prospects...he thinks the forwards are thin. This could be a forward deep draft, I think he wants to deal off some people he does not see in the future of the org for some chances to reap younger assets.
- Fourth, lastly I don't think anyone in the front office has designs on loading up for a back to back Cup run. I see and hear them saying "the future" A LOT. nothing says we have to be buyers and make a run this year. They are enjoying having won it last year and seem to be moving on if this year turns out to be a "blah, blah, back to the old Caps..."

So how’s this mean they are active?

He just went on record on 106.7 the fan

Siegenthaler has been told to stay in DC and find a place to live not called the Marriott Ballston. So if Djoos is coming off LTIR conditioning by the weekend, "someone" is leaving DC -- most likely Bowey.

BTW, with Vancouver in town tomorrow if would make sense for Burk and Bowey to leave with the Nucks, and Virtanen to stick around DC and move into Siegs hotel room. HAHA

big fan of this. Virtanen for burk and bowey for pouliot makes some sense. well see. also ive seen some stuff about possibly granlund but no thanks

SHOTGUN JAKE to DC lmao I Love It, Him, Oshie, and Wilson on the right side would be perfect, move Connolly to the Left. Perfection. Him and Oshie can *shotgun* more after going back to back lmao
