<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RussianRangers9</b></div><div>year is 2024. caps are rebuilding and ovi has declined. Rangers are cup contenders and offer 2 1sts and a one year ufa lw for ovi. by 2024 i would assume that ovi's value tanks and rangers pay 2 1sts and a player for him</div></div>

Doesn't matter if Ovi has declined or not, the fact is he's the biggest name in Washington Capitals history, dwarving the likes of Bondra, Hunter, and Kolzig. He's clearly stated he doesn't want to go anywhere other than DC, and the Capitals even <strong>trying</strong> to trade him would seriously handicap the credibility of the organization. If they traded him, they would have a mass fan revolt and most likely many would stop cheering for DC. But at the end of the day, even if the organization does try to trade him, hes not going anywhere. He will exercise his NMC and NTC in order to prevent a move, play out his final days in DC with Backstrom, and when both of their contracts are up, unless Ovi is near the goal record, both he and maybe Backy will go to the KHL to finish their careers.

Sujet: Ovechkin
Setting aside emotional opinions, I don't even think the value here is right. Ovechkin, as much as the advanced stats crowd likes to **** on him, is still an amazing goal scorer and a player any team would kill to hove on their team. Ovechkin himself would have value around Marner (factoring in Marner's contract and failure to perform in the postseason/away from Matthews), with Ovi probably having a little less due to age. Then you throw in CMM, and you are overpaying for a guy with as bad of a contract and another center that has nowhere to play (best he could be is 3rd line, and it would rob Eller/Dowd of a deserved starting spot. Marner would also clog the RW side, forcing one of Oshie/Sprong/Wilson to play 4th line, which would be a waste of good talent. Finally, this trade isn't even physically possible as the Caps would be multiple million dollars over the cap with no realistic way out without further screwing the team.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FilthyMitts05</b></div><div>I dont see Kuzy staying in WSH for very much longer. His off-ice issues have been a problem for the caps. The team might want to replace him with a different guy especially considering the success the team has had the last year. I could also see them going for someone much cheaper for the fact that their defense and goaltending could be a problem and need cap space to fix</div></div>

Really not close to the truth. People saw Kuzy do coke multiple years ago and haven't let it go that he's "problematic" since. Outside of that video, Kuznetsov really hasn't had much in terms of issues, the only thing being an extremely rare second bout with Covid last year. He should pull good return, but the capitals may not look to trade him as he has done quite well so far and really helps to alleviate pressure from Backstrom, allowing both to play at their best. The Capitals would not trade him for an older defenseman on the left that would take away time from Alexeyev and Fehervary in the future, and especially not with retaining 1.5 mil of Kuzy's deal.
