Caps Hunt Elite Winger for Deadline Splash
Washington GM Chris Patrick makes no bones about it: the Capitals target a higher-end, skilled winger to juice their top-six before the March 6 deadline. With $12.6 million in cap space and Ovechkin's future hanging in the balance, they prowl a thin market where sellers hesitate amid the playoff scrum. Patrick knows these guys don't grow on trees, but he's patiently dialing front offices, waiting for the Olympic freeze to thaw and options to emerge.
