    Vasi didn't really supplant Bishop either, it was a business decision for Tampa, and that's how I see it happening in Washington as well. Do you want to commit yourself to a 31-year-old goalie for the next 8 years at $10M or maybe even more? I doubt Holtby is willing to sign a short-term deal when his current one is over, I'm sure someone will give him that long-term deal even if it's not Washington.

    It will all depend on how Samnsonov does if and when he comes over. I am quite curious, since following KHL players is really hard for most of us.

    And don't get me started on Eric Staal. He was painting a downward trend so I got Burakovsky and a 1st round pick for him after his 54 and 39 point seasons, with shot rate and shot accuracy declining..... I would never do that deal now.. Thanks, Eric... Thanks...
