MEANDWARF Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 The Washington Capitals have acquired Tyler Graovac from the Minnesota Wild for a fifth-round pick in 2018. Washington needed to acquire one more player who met the minimum requirements for the expansion draft or they would have had to expose two of Lars Eller, Tom Wilson or Jay Beagle. Graovac had seven goals and two assists in 52 games with Minnesota this season. Regardless of where he plays next season, he won't have any fantasy value.

Warhead36 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I wish we could unprotect everyone so Vegas could take all of our chokers. Of course as soon as they leave D.C. they'll win 3 Stanley Cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hersh Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I'd protect Schmidt over Carlson since Carlson is only here another year anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 As I understand it, there's no point in Las Vegas drafting a UFA because they will have first dibs on them once free agency opens up. The RFA's are a bit of an issue though because they get the rights to them if drafted. Schmidt and Grubauer are the only real concerns unless you have faith that Connolly can come on strong.

Forehead Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I had wondered why Schmidt was unprotected...I thought he looked awfully useful against the Pens, but figured the team knows better than I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Sounds like the price to keep Schmidt was too expensive. If we lose Oshie then I'll start to freak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hersh Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Very excited to give up a solid young, FAST defenseman so we could keep Carlson for another year and get a little slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoDeep81 Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Another young, promising guy with a good cap hit gets away.. Its too bad they didn't expose some guys who'd actually free up cap space if taken.. Least we could replaced them with similar value/$ player.. Not sure there's any inexpensive (yet good) D men available. Even if we trade Grubs, we won't have much cap room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
