Description

Tarik El-Bashir today had some interesting topics to cover in this episode of mailbag.

Some prospect news to cover:
Garin Bjorklund will be out long term after back surgery. If Gibson signs, I think that may be the death sentence for any chance Bjorklund has in the Caps system.
Bear Hughes (2020 5th round pick, unsigned) and Clay Stevenson (Undrafted Free Agent) are off to good starts in South Carolina, and Stevenson is "progressing on schedule" and could play a role in the Capitals future.

Finally, the most interesting bit of news, on Laviolette and a possible extension: "I have not heard any recent scuttlebutt. My gut says it’s like everything else with the Caps these days: the answer is, “it depends.” As in, it depends on what happens between now and the end of the season."

I've always considered El-Bashir to be the most reliable of Caps reporters (no disrespect to Samantha Pell), so I'm glad to see the mailbag be so thorough/diverse in topics.

Transactions

WSH

Boeser, Brock

VAN

"As for Boeser, I was told that there aren’t any legs to the speculation connecting him to D.C."

Based on the extra term and price on his contract, makes sense in my opinion.

WSH

Horvat, Bo

VAN

"Horvat figures to be the most sought-after rental at the deadline. As such, I don’t see him ending up in D.C. The cost in terms of draft/prospect capital, to me, puts him out of the Caps’ price range."

Feels like MacLellan will be very inactive at the deadline with these types of reports.

WSH

Gudas, Radko

FLA

Eller, Lars (1 000 000 $ retained)

Détails additionnels:

"with colleague Pierre LeBrun writing, “Washington, I’m told, would entertain offers for him if it could get help on defense, where the injury to John Carlson has really thinned the ranks.”

Fellow caps fans, you might get your wish. El-Bashir kind of words it like Eller is more likely dealt than Mantha. This could be for a whole host of depth defensemen, but I personally like the idea of a Gudas trade and Washington sending some sort of pick to cover the difference. Perhaps a bit of salary retention as well.

WSH

ARI

Gibson, Mitchell [Liste de réserve]

Détails additionnels:

"The Caps like Gibson, who’s having another solid season for the Crimson. In fact, the 2018 fourth-round pick is viewed as one of the organization’s most improved prospects. They want to bring him into the fold. But you’re right, there is a bit of a backlog in net. And I’m sure Gibson is well aware of that."

This one worries me a bit. Gibson has shown good improvement and I like him as a prospect, but the fact he hasn't signed yet is a bit concerning. Nice to know Washington would like to keep him around, though.

WSH

Roy, Matt

LAK

Eller, Lars (350 000 $ retained)

Détails additionnels:

EDIT TO THE ORIGINAL POST:
With a Duhatshek report coming out that the Kings may have interest in Eller, with potentially Walker/Roy coming back the other way, I think would likely be more realistic than a trade for Gudas. Roy especially would be nice but I'm not sure what would need to be added in to even the trade out.

We need a defensemen. Gudas is the guy we need. I like this. Mantha for Kuzmenko. Don’t really care if we need to add.

Also Osh needs to retire

With how poorly the PP functions without him, I don't even care how well he does at 5v5 anymore. The team doesn't function as well without Oshie on the ice (I just wish they could redo his contract)

Honestly pay someone to buy him out then we can fix the contract. How much would that be tho

If I remember correctly, the NHL fixed that loophole after the Orpik trade.

Certainly possible. I wonder if Florida looks to deal Bennett or Reinhart, would they possibly like Eller to slot in as a defensive forward who can take some pressure off of Luostarainen. (And someone who could be a possible cheap re-signing)

The trade here is more of a rough outline than anything else, with Gudas able to be replaced with another defenseman like Stecher or Walker for example.

I would be (pleasantly) surprised if Bmac could get a d man in an Eller trade. Doubt it happens this way. I think if the Caps are making the playoffs (still iffy) Gudas would be a good add for this. I would not want to pay more than a 3rd rounder though, as the Caps would only last 5 or 6 games in their first round series with Bos or Car anyways...

Would also be happy if Bmac could grab a defenseman. I need to amend the post itself but Duhatshek was reporting that the Kings had interest in Eller and Walker/Roy would be potentially coming back the other way. Would, in all likelihood, end the possibility for Jensen to return without Backstrom retiring at the end of the year (or dealing Mantha), but Roy especially would not be a bad replacement imo.

Yeah, I was definitely ready to write off an Eller trade if it was just "Eller could be a higher trade target", but LA having reported interest makes me think something could actually happen.

Interested to hear you two's thoughts on a potential Caps-Kings trade, and especially if/how an Eller for Roy or Eller for Walker trade could happen.

Here's part of the report for anyone interested

I cannot imagine why we'd have interest in Lars Eller when we have Quinton Byfield and Rasmus Kupari, as well as others, we've been auditioning for #3C. Fiala, Kempe, Arvidsson, Vilardi, Kupari and Kaliyev can all play RW. Fiala, Kempe, Moore, Iafallo, Grundstrom and Turcotte (2023 debut last game) can all play LW. Kopitar, Danault, Byfield and Lizotte look pretty solid down the middle, but both Kupari and Vilardi have spent time there. And that's not considering fourth-liners like Anderson-Dolan and Lemieux, or auditioning youngsters like Fa-gem-o.

Yeah, Walker is movable not so much Roy. I agree with @OldNYIFan The Kings look fairly set at forward, the question mark in goal and left defense will be what they will want for Walker, or a pick/prospect would suffice. With Clarke and Spence coming, Walker will be the odd man out.

Thank for the input guys! I'll admit I was pretty confused why they would have interest in Eller outside of any PK needs, but if Walker is available that seems like a realistic target for Washington.
