Caps getting grittier and grittier. Like this move from their perspective.

bad deal for Washington. I think Oshie is overrated as he tends to have disappearing spells

Oshie is a decent upgrade over Brouwer (better in every aspect except size), and they didn't really have to give anything up to do it. Calling this a win for the Caps. They're looking poised for a cup run heading into next season.

Oshie has a reputation of disappearing in the playoffs among blues fans.

Caps robbed the Blues. Even the Flames could have done better.
