According to multiple rumours, the Capitals have added the best player available to their already insane blueline.

I am reading multiple Twitter reports saying this is just a first, a second and an AHL player.

Update:

Shattenkirk trade has other details but main parts I believe: 1st RD pick in 2017, 2nd RD pick in 2018 and Zach Ranford going to St. Louis

Sandford is OK, but come one, this is crazy!!

Somewhere John Chayka is dancing. And Cliff Fletcher is wishing he retired in 1991.

Wow.

For the record, the best team in the NHL now has 4 x #1 Defenseman.

Niskanen. Orlov. Carlson. Shattenkirk.

Kind of feel bad for Nate Schmidt right now, but like I always do when I feel bad for a hockey player, I remember than he's a millionaire and I'm not.

This is wild. More to follow.

Here's the best song of all time to help you celebrate.
