Caps make deal with Jackets


Updating that rumored trade, the Caps and Jackets have completed it. Washington trades defenseman Milan Jurcina and forward Chris Clark to Columbus for forward Jason Chimera. Looks like a good deal for the struggling BJ’s. Jurcina is a physical D with size and Clark adds character to a roster that’s dropped nine in a row. Chimera’s a decent guy who brings energy and is interchangeable. But he’s nothing special.

I’m really not getting this move from the Cap side. Unless Karl Azner is ready to be full-time, eh. I don’t get it. Their blueline just got worse. They also dealt away their captain. So, do they hand over the ‘C’ to Ovechkin? Who knows. Want to give full credit to Bob McKenzie, Elliotte Friedman and Puck Daddy’s Dmitry Chesnokov for nailing the player the Caps got. He said either Raffi Torres or Chimera. Good job buddy!
