Washington Capitals: Free Agents to Watch in the Stanley Cup
Barclay Goodrow, Tampa Bay Lightning, 28 years, $925,000
Like Corey Perry, Barclay Goodrow is another good cheap forward option. What makes him better is that he is eight years younger at 28 years old. He can easily play on the bottom six depending on what the Caps need.
He had six goals and 14 assists for 20 points in 55 games played. He also has a goal and an assist in the playoffs so far.
Pros:
- He’s physical and isn’t afraid to use his body to deliver checks or block shots. He’ll add more physicality to a team already build with physical forwards like Tom Wilson.
- He’s a great option for the third line in case the Caps lose a bottom six forward in the Seattle expansion draft.
Cons:
- He doesn’t produce much.
Puck drop for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals is at 8 p.m. on the NBC Sports Network. The game will take place in Tampa Bay, a city on an emotional high with the Lightning and Buccaneers winning championships. For Montreal, they are looking to win their first Stanley Cup since 1993.
