The Washington Capitals will look for a center, but will keep an eye on their assets
TSN: Washington Capitals forward Pierre-Luc Dubois won’t be out for the entire season, but he will miss a significant amount of time. They will look at what options are available, but they need to keep an eye on their assets for the future.Alex Ovechkin era, according to Darren Dreger.
“The Capitals will of course explore the trade market, but they must be cautious when moving current or future assets, and take into account when the post-Alex Ovechkin era begins.
In the meantime, they will try to fill the gap internally – Connor McMichael is a natural centre, he has already settled into that role, and I expect he will also be looked at for a long time by Spencer Carbery down the line.
NHL Rumors: Will Jason Robertson Take Less Than Mikko Rantanen?
If they predict Cale Makar, the Bruins will need scoring depth, and the Panthers will look to their blue line
Dan Rosen of NHL.com: Predicting that Cale Makar will sign an eight-year contract extension with the Colorado Avalanche for $128 million, which is a $16 million salary cap hit.
The Boston Bruins are caught in a bit of no man’s land, because they could use a reset around their core, but they need more scoring ability and speed. You can say that their core consists of David Pastrnak, Elias Lindholm, Morgan Geekie, Charlie McAvoy, Hampus Lindholm, Nikita Zadorov and Jeremy Swayman. They don’t have enough depth to be legitimate playoff contenders. Now that Lindholm is injured, Marat Choesnutdinov (23) centers their first line, and Fraser Coins (21) their third line.
The Florida Panthers losing defenseman Dmitri Kulikov for about five months was a big blow. The Panthers will keep an eye on the defenseman market, but… Donovan Sebrango will get a shot for the time being. He plays a physical game and can skate. If he doesn’t succeed, they look for someone with the same qualities.
