According to Samatha Pell of The Fourth Period on SiriusXM The Hot Stove, there could be some changes in the Washington Capitals' net.
Why? Because the team's two goaltenders, Ilya Samsonov and Vitek Vanecek, will become restricted free agents and could change address via a trade.
«Samsonov obviously has a pretty high value. Vitek Vanecek has been pretty steady for them the last couple of years. But GM Brian MacLellan made it clear at the end of the season that their number one priority was to get a veteran goalie.»
The free agent market could have Jack Campbell (Toronto), Darcy Kuemper (Colorado), Ville Husso (St. Louis) and Marc-Andre Fleury (Minnesota).
Four very good choices. A file to follow.
