tbh kinda surprised by this one ngl i thought tuch was gonna end up in a bigger market than buffalo and now he's on the capitals but 8 years at $10.5m is steep for what he brings to the table, cap hit will be tough for them to swallow

yeah i was thinkin same thing about tuch gettin traded away from buffalo but hey 10.5m isnt crazy for a top6 winger he fits in well with our top line and hes got size ngl its a win for us cap space not an issue atm we got enough room to make some moves

tbh $10.5m is steep for tuch he's a good player but not top endimo think capitals got him on the cheap though, third round pick isn't bad for a top6 winger

SE

tbh i think capitals got a steal here 8 years at $10.5m is high but he's a legit top6 winger and they gave up nothing but a 3rd round pick thats not gonna kill them cap wise next year ngl this could be a huge get for ovechkin

huge W for Caps on Tuch. 8 years at $10.5m is steep but third round pick is nothing.
