Description

As long as the caps have Ovi they won't rebuild. I think this would be a solid retool if they plan on competing but am not sure if these contracts or the trades are valued correctly. Also wondering if the caps need to address goaltending this offseason.

I am wondering that myself, not sure what term or aav these players should get but do think these are the players that the caps should target. What changes would you make to the contracts and trade?

Canes would want a 1st, a prospect and a roster player for Necas. Easily

Fair enough, what young player would the caps give in that trade? Miroshnachenko, McMichael, Lappiere? 1st, Dowd, and a Porspect?

Dowd has value, just not to the Canes - they are flush with bottom 6 centers. I've seen a couple Jensen for Necas trades and while I don't love it, I don't hate it either. Ideally they get a first and prospect if a team is only offering futures.

If I were to trade Necas (my preference would be to keep him but if his contract ask is 8.25 million then he's gone), I would want either a replacement top6 RW, or a top4 RD. Depending on who was available/ how much term/ their cap/ their age, I could see picks going either way.
