[3-Way Trade] Bruins acquire Dmitry Orlov, Garnet Hathaway, Andrei Svetlakov; Capitals acquire Craig Smith, 2023 1st-round pick, 2024 3rd-round pick, 2025 2nd-round pick; Wild acquire 2023 5th-round pick

Minnesota Wild General Manager Bill Guerin today announced the National Hockey League (NHL) club has acquired a fifth-round selection in the 2023 NHL Draft in a three-team trade with the Washington Capitals and the Boston Bruins. The Wild acquired defenseman Dmitry Orlov from Washington in exchange for forward Andrei Svetlakov. Washington retained half of Orlov's salary. Minnesota then traded Orlov to Boston in exchange for a fifth-round selection in the 2023 NHL Draft. Minnesota retained 25% of Orlov's remaining salary.

that’s the price for Boston to dump smith? What is going on here m, are you awake Alvin? 

Orlov and Hathaway make the Bruins better as well. That was a great trade by Washington.

Please not. We've only got two retention spots left, not going to get much for our $1.2m share

2 remaining for this season, yes. All 3 available for next season.

 

Ideally one is used to optimize the return for Boeser, leaving one for a trade like this

Seriously hurts that the Bruins and Canucks were on par in 2011.  One team is tops in the league.  The other is near the bottom.

Canucks were much older than Boston,

 

It does suck though 

[BigTramFan]

Capfriendly not showing any MIN involvement. Only WAS retaining $2.55m on Orlov.

Why?  We can leverage our cap space better than using a retention spot for a 5th.

And giving up an asset, that would likely just be replaced by the 5th. The wild really just retained and didn't get anything of value.

Minnesota gets Boston's 2023 5th round pick.  So Boston gives up a 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th.  Wow, that's almost an entire draft...

@-Vintage Canuck- Maybe it's time to change the title to a ménage à trois?  

 

Unless, of course, there's a fourth partner yet to be introduced...

How in the world does the cap work here? Hathaway + Orlov is 6.6 Million, and Craig Smith is only 3.1. Here's hoping we're involved...

I think Caps retain as well. Confused. 

[Elias Pettersson]

So with Boston giving up 4 picks, they must be done.  One less team to deal with now...

Seems like a lot for 2 players. Did we get enough for Bo after all?
