It better be a big upheaval given how long people have been expecting trades to happen. But what does it matter? Even if they go for a rebuild, at this point Kuznetsov could easily prove another Ovechkin; he’s done nothing to indicate he won’t be.

The main restructuring probably will happen after consecutive Boston Bruins games in VC which would be super-measuring stick games for Caps. If BB will do to Caps their usual spanking of suspected eastern pretenders/contenders (see recent Flyers 6:0 and Panthers 8:0) than Caps would be done. It would be good opportunity to hear what owner Ted thinking about Caps and their chances, exactly before the Bruins game on Jan 24. The game could be final eye-opening for him and others or less probable propel Caps to the real contenders.

Yeah, I didn’t want the main post to be apocalyptic, but I think we’re looking at a major restructuring — probably BEFORE the deadline– and it’ll be a mortal challenge to McPhee’s career.

I have been saying that we are weak down the middle and on defense since BB became coach. With NB out indefinitely a deep run in the playoffs is a pipe-dream. We will be lucky to hold on to a 7-8 seed. We played our hand with this roster and we got to the 2nd round once, time to move on with most of these guys.
