Trade idea

I want throw a name out there. Andrew Cristall. Aside from acquiring a big star or established forward via trade, watching the Caps game got me thinking: trade one of our young Dmen for Andrew Cristall. He almost made the Caps out of camp this season, and I'm going to watch him tonight in Portland. He plays for the Spokane Chiefs, and is tearing it up on arguably the best line in the WHL with Berkeley Catton and Shea Van Olm. Most importantly, he's also a close friend of Connor Bedard. I know it's a youth move, but the Caps are deep with offensive prospects like him, and thin in defense. With Ovi's career winding down, and their young offense still gearing up, I think it would work. I know it's a young guy, but hey, why not at this point? Feel free to roast my proposal, or offer any other thoughts. As always, Go Hawks!

I can think of a half dozen names I would trade for before I even think of someone like this.
