Eller would be a decent 3c, but theres cheaper options on FA I would target much before him.

Kempny and any external options are redundant after this season for us. Shame he got hurt.

Ovie might ask for less definitely.

Thought rangers still need LHD help.?

Possibly but Eller is only 3.5m for a guy that is a really good 3c

I heard he wanted mcdavid money. Unfortunately

Not for 2021

Id personally would try and keep Siegenthaler and try to get off of Schultz contract. Seigs is a younger defensive DMan which the caps can't afford to get rid of. Instead of moving Eller, Panik is the one to go. Panik would be much easier to replace than Eller. I also don't think the Caps would put McMichael in as a C to start his career off. The Jensen and Kempny moves aren't bad. But im afraid Kempny absolutely killed his value and is worth more like a 6th or 7th.

Oh.Actually?When?

True but im calling Granlund and Haula first

Rmnb wrote something claiming that his ideal contract. Capitals are already offering 9.5-10m starting offers

They can protect 3 D. I’m thinking Orlov Carlson Dillon. I don’t want sieg selected just the best player available

Oh.Thats to bad...

You get Seattle to take Oshie. That is key.

thats the dream but i was trying to be realistic

As much as I don't like to say it. I see Oshie not being protected and ending up being selected. The caps may have to pay some expansion draft "considerations" though. Thats best case scenario. So I doubt it happens.

I don't know who you are protecting where you are willing to expose Siegenthaler. However, that could be part of the package that you offer Seattle to take Oshie.

Oshie, Siegenthaler, 3rd for a 7th, plus exposing Eller. Something like that.

There is a great post, by an incredibly bright user, in the forums about the Caps in the expansion draft...
