Wow. Did not see that coming.

That’s a tough one. Looks like he’s fetching a first as a rental, which is simultaneously both a good return and the bare minimum for me to not be pissed about the trade.
So this and Dowd feel like a sign the Caps are not expecting a deep payoff run.
Nor should they, obviously. They just haven’t had that spark and consistency since Ovi broke the record last year. Hopefully Ovi retires after this season and the Caps can rebuild. Wilson for captain!
On one hand, I was certain all three of Ovi, Wilson, and Carly would retire as Caps. I guess with Carlson gone and Ovi likely retiring after this season, Wilson gets the “C” next season.
