This was posted about the same time I read that Mantha is out for a long time. I think it was written thinking the team could use cap space to make additions.
With Mantha, Backstrom, and Oshie out, the Caps have room to add, if available, McDavid and Kessel. It would be difficult to come up with enough future pieces to land both, without giving up any roster players, but the cap space is there, and they're still, somehow, in playoff position. This roster is fat-free.
Time to add some gratuitous goal scoring.
