Caps 7 points out and selling (with 3 games in hand).

Making room or finally realizing they need to rebuild and the Ovechkin era is over.

Either way they got their cup, and might be making smart moves now.

I'm sure Stone will be back for the playoffs and Vegas adds Mantha to the mix. If they get healthy, they are going to be tough.

As long as they beat Edmonton, they can keep cheating

Would have loved for the Flames to jump in as the 3rd team for retention for a 3rd or something to help Vegas out.

Makes sense for Vegas. They build big, and Mantha is big. The guy seems to have had a questionable motor over the course of his career, but with him being a UFA this is his shot to earn one last decent contract to carry him into his mid-30s

Feels like one of those trades that is good value for the Caps, but you also know that Mantha will somehow become super human for Vegas and look like he did in Detroit early on when he was beast to handle

That's roughly the range for a return for Mangiapane even with a year left. Maybe 2x2nd
