Alex Tuch Traded to Washington, Top Free Agents + Canadiens Offseason Preview

The Washington Capitals continue their aggressive offseason.

Tyler Yaremchuk and Carter Hutton react to the Capitals acquiring Alex Tuch in a sign-and-trade with the Buffalo Sabres. Was the price worth paying? What does the move mean for Washington's Stanley Cup aspirations, and does it hint at the organization's plans beyond Alex Ovechkin?

The guys also debate Zach Benson's new contract extension, whether Quinn Hughes could become the NHL's next $15 million defenseman, and the likelihood of the Ottawa Senators adding another impact forward before the season begins.

The offseason preview series continues with the Montreal Canadiens. Is Kent Hughes ready to make another major move this summer, or is patience still the best approach as the Canadiens continue building around their young core?

Later, Matt Larkin joins the show to break down his updated Top 50 NHL Free Agents rankings. Which players are poised to cash in? Who could become the biggest bargain of the summer? And with the trade market beginning to thin out, which remaining trade target is the most intriguing?
