Regarding your title, with how pricey the Coleman and Greene trades were yesterday, I can't imagine the Caps are willing to get both a RD and a top 9 forward. I've been saying that the Caps need another depth scoring piece in the forward corps in case of injury, but I'm not sure it's as important as getting a solid top four defenseman.
I wonder if the Caps would be better suited with a tweak in their systems, especially in strategies in defending zone entries. Defensemen have been getting burned by forwards going wide and around them for easy backdoor plays, which probably means that they're being too aggressive at the defensive blue line. Defensive support from the forwards has also been sub-par.
