Due to a weak free agent market the Washington Capitals might have to pursue the trade market. What players might Mac be targeting?

In this edition of Locked on Capitals Dand talks about the free agents on the team and what their futures might be. Conor Sheary, Craig Smith, Connor Brown and Carl Hagelin as well as defenseman Matt Irwin may have very well played their last season in DC. The free agent market is weak, so the Capitals might have to pursue some big trades in order to make this team competitive next season. What is the future of some of the biggest name Capitals. It's Dan's belief that the Capitals should explore trade options for TJ Oshie, Nick Backstrom and potentially Charlie Lindgren if they can get the right return. Dan talks about a Capitals team that could be very good if they could add a player like: William Nylander, Mark Scheifle or Alex DeBrincat. Are those players in reach and do the Capitals have the assets to make a deal like those happen?
