Pretty much confirms Oshie is gone LTIR. Only way they can get under the cap unless they are trading someone away for picks

So one huge gamble and a couple of 3rd/4th liners on offense. I’m not excited about Offense.
Going to be very curious to see how the legit defensive additions are goin to be paired up.

We have, at least in talent, separated ourselves from the bottom half of the Metro. we should make the playoffs, and not squeaking in at 8.

Someone showed GMBM how to actually use Cap Friendly after the PLD trade.
effervescent_idiot
Do we have enough ice?
MetalMan1973
I think GMBM did a really good job addressing multiple areas of need

My favorite one is Matt Roy.

Love it minus PLD

We have a new team, pretty much. I’m not certain it’s a better team, yet, but it’s new.
Special-Bite
Excited to see if Carberry can pull it all together into a winning team. Glad that we have upgraded D and might have scoring options other than Ovechkin.
HotIce05
Bueno.
Aware-Leading-1213
Team is much better.
thenatureboyWOOOOO
Love it. No expectations for the team to be good next year so we’re rolling the dice. If it works that’s awesome, if not life will go on.
So many sports franchises are content with playing it safe, i respect the gamble.
Thedirtyside
Definitely a like, finally not going to be one of the oldest groups out there. Interested how this will look on ice with so many changes
CapsGoGoGo
Let’s see what Carbery can do with this group. I hope Ovi has some life in him this year from the get go

It’s unbelievable how much better we’ve gotten since last week. This team is a couple of minor tweaks away from being able to make a legitimate playoff run, imo.

The PLD signing is intriguing, I hope he finally gets it together here but my hopes aren’t incredibly high. Love Mangi, Chychrun and Roy signings/trades. LT is an interesting one, was thinking maybe they’d get Shep some NHL time but it looks like thats gonna wait.

This is the first summer in forever they were able to make significant roster changes instead of just adding peripheral pieces to core that can’t get it done anymore.
I feel good about this. They’ve needed to reload the roster for a long time now and were finally able to do it now that there’s clarity on where Kuznetsov, Backstom and, I assume, Oshie stand.

Unreal that the caps pulled a Chychrun-Roy pairing out of thin air. Very jealous as a Sens fan
MetalMan1973
Gonna take awhile to learn all the new numbers

This is the rare successful rebuild-on-the-fly actually happening. BMAC and RossM are killing it. If it works out with these guys and with a few tweaks here and there there really won’t be much of a down period post-Ovi.

Hopefully luc debois does something with the caps. He didn’t to shit with the kings.
Hopefully he’s not another paciorety pick up.
All the other acquisitions look good. Have to see it on the ice now. Hopefully in preseason.

I’m very interested in seeing how Carbery makes it all work. As others have stated, this looks really good on paper and addresses a lot of needs (defense 🙏), but hopefully the chemistry is there too.

Id say awesome pick ups! And miles ahead of last offseason’s moves
