*-> The Washington Capitols have a decision to make this summer with Alexander Semin who is on the last year of his contract. Semin has been invisible when the going gets tough and that may factor into the Washington managements future plans. Semin who currently makes 6 million dollars this and next season could be asking for a raise. Nicklas Backstrom who is also due a new contract will be getting a big raise as well which should put the Caps right up against the cap. This being said it could mean Semins departure from Washington via trade. Many are reporting that the Caps will look to shop Semin as early as the draft and compare the situation to Boston and Phil Kessel. If traded now the Caps may be able to steal a high 1st round pick and a serious prospect.
*-> The Ottawa Senators have signed 7th round draft pick Colin Greening to a 1 year entry level deal. Greening played for Cornell of the ECAC.
