In my Opinion, He should be the Future Captain for the Capitals after Ovi. Don't get me wrong, this type of trade is good…but it stinks and hurts a lot.
I could be very wrong but I think it was Don Cherry (Canada’s first ranked Canadian) that said the team that gets a good seasoned veteran player wins immediately, because you don’t know what the draft picks are going to bloom into., they might not work out.
As a capital fan: Oh shit. Sad to see him go, but understandable. As long as he's not treated to the east. We needed to get younger. And we cannot trade Ovechkin, there will be riots in the streets.

They shouldn't have traded him. 16 yrs is too long to to trade

John carlson?
Looks good in orange
Bruh I was born in 2009
ovechkin = ruzzian puppet
Who cares what he says
Collecting the Carlsons lol
I was really shocked, definitely gonna be weird seeing John in a ducks jersey
I've been a Caps fan my whole life, and not having him is going to be so weird.
As a Vegas fan, when I got the notification my reaction was “oh heck no dude” 😔

As a Caps fan im good with it. We are not going to make the playoffs. He is a feee agent to be. Hilarious if they rent him and we resign him.
I hate that they blindsided him. I was shocked and felt so bad for him.
Your going to make shorts about sled hockey
We really needed Carlson
Not all all surprised he is a pending UFA and isn’t going back to Washington
I was waiting for Thomas to Montreal
John Carlson fell asleep first at the sleepover
Bad form. You shouldn't pawn around with an old school career guy. Be like dealing Sid for a 1st and 2nd.
If Joel Quenneville has gotten trouba on a 15g 40pt pace, imagine what he can do with Carlson
As a caps fan I love it. 1st n 3rd for a 36 yr old dman. Plus he may sign with the caps at the end of the season
