| Jose Theodore wasted little time in decided which team he wanted to sign with as he chose the Washington Capitals where he signed a 3-year, $16 million deal, according to TSN. |
Our View: Theodore certainly used a strong season in Colorado to receive a plum job in Washington. With this signing, it seems almost a 100% certainty that Cristobal Huet will not be back with the Caps after a tremendous run with the club after he was acquired from Theodore's old team, the Canadiens. Look for Theodore to be valued at the bottom rung of starting goalies in two starter systems heading into next season. |

| Mike Green has put his name on the dotted line for a 4-year year, $21 million contract to remain with the Capitals, according to ESPN. "Mike has developed into an impact defenseman in the short time since we drafted him, and he will be a key part of our team moving forward," general manager George McPhee said. |
Our View: This is a pretty big contract for a guy who entered last season with just 15 points scored. Green took his game to a whole other level last season though with 18 goals and 56 points for the Caps. He should continue to run the power-play with Alexander Ovechkin and produce stellar numbers. |
