So he is going to do something?

So this would have made Hamonic worth two seconds?

Good deal for the Sharks. Caps get fleeced.

Dillon is no good. Barely at the minimum level of a 5th or 6th NHL calibre D-man. Very much a scrub.

Friedman on the 31 Thoughts podcast says Caps might not be done in the defensive market. Says they might have interest in reacquiring Mike Green and, as I kind of figured they might, trading Nick Jensen

“I’ve heard that Jensen might be available,” Friedman says on the “31 Thoughts” podcast. “It just hasn’t worked there as much as they’d like. You just added Dillon, and your top four is gonna be Carlson, Orlov, Kempny, and Dillon. I think Washington might have some interest in [Mike] Green. Jensen’s extended for four years at two and a half million. That’s a big number. I just don’t think it’s worked there as much as everybody hoped, so I could see Jensen potentially being moved.”

I am willing to excuse management for attempting to do what every NHL franchise is trying to do, make the playoffs.

Especially when they are currently in a playoff spot.

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.
