Caps- Bruins make 8player, 3 pick swap.

[Knut]

In the Largest deal in Washington history, GM Hesla at the helm,

To Washington:

1. Corvo, Joe (D) NHL
2. Walker, Scott (RW) NHL
3. Cleary, Dan (RW) NHL
4. $8.5 million

To Boston:

1. Hecht, Jochen (LW) NHL
2. Ortmeyer, Jed (RW) NHL
3. Chorney, Taylor (D) AHL
4. Deschamp, Nic (LW) ECHL
5. Blacker, Jesse (D) ECHL
6. 2011 1st Round Draft Choice (was)
7. 2011 2nd Round Draft Choice (was)
8. 2012 1st Round Draft Choice (was)

Obviously the Capitals gave up a lot of future assets for the deal, however adding a 68OV dman provides a huge boost on D. Cleary upgrade hecht and adding Walker upgrades the third line.

Clearly the Caps are taking a run at it.....

Thanks to KG for the talks... it was fun to trade banter all over the place the last few days.

Umm....I don't feel like going through the trade so I'll assume it's even.

Nice deal gents.

Caps make another small move...

To NJD:

ECHLer Patrick White

to WAS

Jiri Novotny (59OV) + 4th rounder.

Basically, this move allows us to not have to play Darcy Hordichuk
