Alexander Semin Trade Rumours

With the Washington Capitals slowly fading away from a playoff spot, expect a major trade to come soon!

Alexander Semin's name keeps coming up in trade rumors: Semin carries a cap hit of $6.7 million. He currently has 10 points ( 5g, 5a) in 23 games. He will be the most likely ‘top’ player to be dealt for a team shakeup as Backstrom and Ovechkin are untouchable....right now....

The Detroit Red Wings, Boston Bruins, Calgary Flames and Chicago Blackhawks have all contacted Washington on what the asking price is for Semin. A trade will not happen until January when Semin's cap hit will be easier to take on. Semin is also a UFA after this year.

Quoting Matt:
I think that Detroit would be the best fit. A new how with different Euro stars might turn his career around.

Semin counts $6.7 mill against the cap and is a UFA at years end. He has value to teams looking to clear space at years end. If he steps up his play, its a bonus.

Semin ain't going anywhere other than to free agency KHL not even worth a 2nd round draft pick, the word is out talented russian wingers have an expiration date quicker than produce from an organic grocery store.
