If it didn't cost a core young player I'm all for acquiring Ovechkin. Big salary sure, but it's only for a handful more years-- and I think OV would still be a perennial 30-40 goal scorer at the end of his contract. I think we could make it work financially, but I imagine Washington would want something substantial. I'd be fine with any combo of picks and prospects... but Bennett and Tkachuk are off limits
