That's a very prudent move for the Capitals given the position they are in. While he doesn't have the sexy offensive numbers, Dillon is exceptionally good in his own zone, is a complete pain in the ass to play against, and is terrific in the room. He leaves it all on the ice and good for him getting a shot with that Capitals team.
