Nylander is being loaned out to us again, good thing for the Griffs.

Edit: I spell like a 6 year old.

Almost wish we could call him up w/ all our injuries!

Excellent. Now Tomas Tatar can go to the World Juniors without leaving a hole...and maybe **** "Healthy Scratch" Axelsson will be allowed to go back home.

Axelsson-Nylander-Ritola

FTW!!!

This is really good news. Our PP is struggling and he'll improve it significantly.

With Tatar going a big offensive void needed to be filled, perfect timing.

Ritola - Pare - Mursak
Emmerton - Nylander - Axelsson
Rismiller - McGrath - Williams
Vigilante - Newbury - Tardif

Looks about right.

The caps are paying his full salary while he is with the Griffins. That has to hurt I am sure. The Wings do need him with all the injuries, but can't take the 4.8 million dollar cap hit to take him on.

This is a great move for everyone involved.

Nylander gets to play and for a team that needs him and in a city with fans that will respect and adore him.
Nylander gets his full salary.
The Caps get a player off their books and get to bring up other players to fill his spot since it didn't work out.
The Griffins get a top caliber player with NHL experience and leadership qualities to boot.

Nylander is a great player both on and off the ice. I met him about 8 years ago and my opinion about him hasn't changed ever since.
