<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Booyah</b></div><div>Idk much about Pinho and the other guy</div></div>

I don't really know, but I'll try: Pinho had a ton of points in college, signed with Hershey last Spring and immediately became their #1 center, and one of the Caps' top prospects. There was talk of calling him up for last year's playoffs. Then in the summer both Washington and Hershey went on a free agent binge, and brought up some guys from juniors, and Pinho has gone from #1C to occasional healthy scratch. Hershey's top six is full of late-twenties ringers like Mike Sgarbossa and Jayson Megna, now, whereas last year when it was full of prospects, he was the best. A change of scenes would be a good way to get his development back on track.

Bindulis came over from Latvia in juniors. Played in the WJC. Has .5 p/gp playing defense in the ECHL this year, plus four games in Hershey with one penalty and an even plus/minus. Supposed to be more of a stay at home guy, but the way he's scoring in the E, maybe he can still put together some offense, as he keeps growing.

I don't think either is going to put Boeser out of a job soon, but the reviews I've read make it sound like they should both become NHL regulars at some point.

Scratch the Florida trade. Demko is our future starter and we a third pairing RHD. Bob is not the greatest option for us. Next year we are transitioning Demko to the majors as a backup, and Markstrom should start as we're not quite trying to contend yet. I'd use Tanev+ to get Lindgren or Liljgren from Toronto. Kakko and Hughes will sign 925K contracts, so we'll have a small cap hit so we can handle Eriksson's contract. He is still a solid bottom six guy, so don't give up on him. I'd like the Edler trade, and if we could send him to any team and guarantee a low cap hit extension, we could get a good return for him. Probably more than a low end first. If we keep Pouliot, we can have Hutton, Pouliot and Juolevi as our LHDs. I want to develop Hughes for another year so as not to rush him like Gaudette and Virtanen. I love the Del Zotto trade, and I'm a big believer in trading either Sutter or Beagle if possible, so that idea is awesome. I love the Stralman signing. He'd slot quite nicely on our team, and we could give him decent ice time but with more favourable matchups. I have a team created that is based on your ideas called "Based off 'Jumpstart'".

A lot depends on how well you could navigate the Eriksson, Sutter and Tanev NTC's. Carolina seems a sensible destination for Sutter and Arizona or Edmonton seem naturals for Tanev. The only team I see being interested in Eriksson is Ottawa, solely for contract reasons, but I doubt even the Senators would take him off your hands. The only other marketable players appear to be Baertschi, Granlund and Gudbranson, but you have to be careful about trading away TOO MANY veterans because a successful rebuild requires at least SOME leadership to instill proper work and game habits. Del Zotto and Nilsson are the perfect example of trade deadline players. I would do a lot to get a second for each of them (i.e., adding a lower pick or mid-level prospect). And I would give some serious thought to getting Dahlen and Lind up as soon as possible.
