3 prospects who could be traded this offseason

The Washington Capitals might make a trade very soon and we’ve already went over the varsity players who could go multiple times. So today, we’re going to do something different.

Since the Caps have struggled to move players like Evgeny Kuznetsov, they might have to unfortunately include a prospect into the package. These are the three that could be enough to have a team accept a trade and maybe send that decent return of a young top six winger.

#3 Lucas Johansen

I’m looking at the top defense prospects right now. Haman Aktell Hardy? Just signed him. He’s not going anywhere. Vincent Iorio? Maybe he could go if the price is right. But I wouldn’t do it. Dylan McIlrath? Could be important for the Hershey Bears.

Chase Priskie? Caps just signed him. That would be stupid. So that leaves us with 2016 first round pick Lucas Johansen.

He appeared in just two NHL games last season. Just three total. In the AHL he had seven points with a goal and six assists in the regular season. He was even better in the Calder Cup playoffs.

In Hershey’s run to glory he had two goals and four assists for six points in a span of 20 games.
