Seems to me the DUcks biggest problem this year is their lack of depth and goaltending.
I'd trade a combination of Johansson, Eakin, Neuvirth and futures (plus some salary going back) in a second, and I'm as big of a Johansson fan as there is.
Getzlaf either next to Ovechkin or away from the tougher defensive matchups might be just what he needs to get going again.
The only issue I see getting him is that the Caps would also need another finisher (assuming Semin's allowed to walk this summer). Unless they, by some miracle, land Parise, there aren't a lot of options on the UFA market.
How would people feel about this? (in the summer)

Murray said it would be a core-for-core deal, so someone like Green would have to be involved imo.
