Washington Trades
Carlson*


*Caps retain 4 million of Carlson's remaining 2 years with an AAV of 2 million.


Leafs will be looking in the off season to get a solid two way defenseman imo, and Carlson checks all the boxes as well as being a veteran player.

Caps are an older team looking to get younger for the future, Carlson has been a top Defenceman for them but it's time to trade him for assets that help for the now and the future and this proposal does that imo.



Thoughts ?

I think Caps would take this. Carlson is good . not the player he was years ago. but the return helps replenish the cupboard.

- Treliving won't be trading 1st rounders like Dubas. He would also probably look for someone younger than 34 to commit assets towards.

- It's hard to imagine an NHL team retaining 4M x 3 seasons. Besides, WSH is all about getting Ovi the record, and winning appears to be secondary. Trading Carlson would undermine that.

Chickenfoot.
Treliving won't be trading 1st Rounders?
Tyler Toffoli and what about Sean Monahan plus a 1st Rounder to Montreal for Future Considerations?
Just to name a few he did not that long ago.
You complain on my posts that I don't address Defense or Goaltending, so I address Defense and still a no iyo.
It's 4 million over 2 years not 4 million a year for 3 years as Carlson only has 2 years left to go after this season.

He's done it before, but as I have previously said our prospect pool isn't that deep. Most of our guys are hitting that 22-23 mark and haven't been remotely good enough to challenge for a roster spot. Continue to add to the prospect pool, add some players in free agency, and focus to when Tavares is off the books or brought back at a team friendly deal. Cap will have gone up and we will have some space to work with to address any lingering concerns and make a very solid team.

- stop with the whining and crying when you get predictable feedback. Embarrassing.

- Treliving said he wasn’t trading 1st round picks in Toronto. He’s been a GM in the past, and of course he’s trade them in the past. He recognizes that Toronto has few prospects and picks left and can’t afford to trade them as recklessly as Dubas did.

- good for you to come to the realization that the leafs D needs work. Your trades are still way off, one-sided, homer trades though, and the feedback you receive even from fellow leaf fans confirms that. If you can’t accept the truth that’s on you.
