GMBM very busy. Guess Shepard and Stevenson are back in the AHL next season.

trading picks for a mid backup when we already have options in the minors is so fucking stupid

GMBM having a fantastic draft so far. Thompson is a good 1B guy — will work well in a tandem with Chucky. Can’t say this team isn’t improved from last season so far.

He’s coming home!

We might be loading up for a bigger signing in FA or using our deep bench in goal as trade bait.

From an outsider view, i feel this is … stupid?
You have Hunter Shepard who brought Hershey twice to the final (and won) and you dont even consider him for the backup role?
Oh well
Edit: Thanks alot for your explanation on Shepard play, guys. Now i can understand the trade better

Hell yea. Definitely has starter potential should Chucky regress and is yet another UFA for next year. Will have tons of flexibility and desirable assets at the deadline once again.

They were not fucking kidding when they said the Caps would have a busy off-season, my goodness. I like that BMac is showing that he’s serious about making improvements.

I guess that answers the goalie question.
InfallibleBackstairs
Good deal.

Great move, I won the cup with him as Caps in chel and that game is never unrealistic or incorrect at all

LETS FUCKING GOOOOO!!!
I take Thompson in Franchise Mode all the time; I’m so hyped for this!

Fuck GMGM.

Love it love it love it.
Logan Thompson is a capable goaltender. Putting him in a tandem with Charlie would work

Excellent move. I’m still surprised we were able to move Kuemper–and still thrilled about it

We now have two solid goalies with NHL experience, both on phenomenal contacts. I expect we can extend one starting 2025 because we’ll have more money (kuzy 3.9, patches bonus, oshie and others) available.
Great move for next season. Love this

I really hope this works out but I was hoping we’d call up Shep from Hershey. He deserves to have his time to shine.

This is really good. He could take over as the starter if Chuck regresses, and if we’re in a bad place in the second half of the season, we can flip one of the two at the deadline and probably get a pretty nice return.

Good trade. And Vegas will need the depth those 2 3rd round picks get them, as I believe their first line is already filling out the LTIR paperwork for next year.
