NHL Exec Confirms INSANE Trade Rumors Regarding Alex Ovechkin

Point is, with Ovechkin and the actual Washington Capitals roster, it’ll be tough to beat the Penguins next year and so on. So time has come, according to John Feinstein to change the face of the organization.

Yesterday, some people called Renaud Lavoie from TVA Sports crazy as he added the expansion could bring a unique opportunity for the Capitals to trade Ovechkin to Vegas. What’s the goal? To rebuild around Kuzntezov and Orlov? Or they should rather change Ovechkin to change the core leadership group. Teams with a lot of depth (like Minnesota and St. Louis as examples) could be interested to trade for a huge package deal.

Maybe Lavoie wasn’t as crazy as people thought. Insider Jimmy Murphy from the Murphy’s Hockey Law reported some exec confirmed trade rumors regarding Alex Ovechkin.

As reported by Murphy: 

An NHL exec to me this morning: ‘Your Ovechkin to Vegas idea probably won’t happen but it’s not as crazy as some think. Could actually work

More from NHL exec on my Ovechkin to Vegas's idea: “I don’t think it’s right or wrong, but I do think #Caps will explore trading him.

Cap space seems to be the main target and draft picks according to Murphy.
