With a solid record of 38-13-8, the Washington Capitals are in a favorable position ahead of the NHL trade deadline. Unlike last year, when they were uncertain about making the playoffs, the Capitals are poised for a postseason run. General Manager Chris Patrick emphasized the importance of ongoing improvement as they approach the playoffs while cautiously considering additions to the team. The NHL's competitive landscape adds complexity to potential trades, making it unclear how many teams will actively seek to make deals before the deadline.
"Obviously, the team's had a really good year so far. We've got a couple months here to go where we need to continue improving our game and getting to the next level."
"It could be a situation of just less people moving because of that, or maybe it's a situation where there's more kind of like hockey-type deals, players with term getting traded."
