Capitals are pretty happy to add a top 4 Dman in Pelech and 2nd line winger in Nyquist. I didnt like the way Malkin was rated and I just wasnt sure if I could get him going in the sim. Adding D also seems to help our blue line ranks. Kolesar could be a nice depth piece who can complement some of the other players. Getting rid of Zaitsev and Atkinson and their contract is a nice bonus for this upcoming season. Atkinson does have the potential to bounce back up in rating but we had to give to get.
