I dunno, this team has a good young core that got to the playoffs with a terrible start and below average goaltending.
If management feels Jankowski has what it takes to be at least a solid 3C going forward, and has a plan in place to acquire a good goalie, I can't see how you wouldn't do that trade if WASH was willing.
You also have to have a plan to clear a bit of salary, and need to make sure Ovy isn't bolting to the Olympics, but this team shoots right into legit cup contender status for the next 4 seasons if you add Ovechkin and the only thing of substance from last years roster you lose is Bennett.
Most likely BS anyways, but I'm just saying.
