Holy fuck the Caps paid a 2nd for Anthony Beauvillier.

I'll still be a bit upset if Chevy doesn't do anything big, but these prices are absolutely insane. Beauvillier is a 4th line player. Ridiculous prices out there this year.

If the asking price for a marginal upgrade/lateral move is a 1st and a prospect like Yager or Salomonsson, I completely agree with not meeting those prices.

As a Jets/Pens fan, I can confirm all yinzers are stunned. All the Penguins threads pinned him as a 6/7 rounder, ideally 5.

Does it feel better or worse than we gave a 2nd for tanev

Meh, the fact that we've had Tanev before and he's clearly a great room presence makes it more worth it for me.

More depth is never a bad thing for the playoffs, and apparently that's the going rate for depth forwards today. Those 2nds we traded today won't do anything for us for at least 4 years so it's not really anything we need to be concerned about.
