A couple of things here:

1. I really, really doubt that Niskanen is going to either waive his NTC, or has EDM as a team on his trade list. I'm thinking that MIN might be a good destination, because I see them trading a RHD to TOR this off-season to replace Gardiner.

2. I think some team desperate for scoring is going to throw a ton of money at Connolly. I think he priced himself out of DC last night. He has 19 goals, skating on the third line, playing very little to no time on the PP. Some team is going to take the risk that if he gets top six time, he'll score 30+. I think EDM throws cash his way.

3. I'd be surprised if the Caps give Burakovsky more than a 1 year deal at that price. Backie and Holtby are pending UFAs after this season, and that 3.3M could come in handy. This is assuming that the Caps will keep Holtby around, which depending on how this year's playoff run goes, could go either way. Personally, I think if the Caps don't repeat, they're trading Holtby at the draft or later in the summer to a team that had Cup aspirations, but had mediocre to bad goaltending (Calgary, San Jose)
