With the position they're in, they could trade away some good players for prospects or picks to slowly start the rebuild.
One of their forwards has been linked to two teams.
Anthony Duclair, 28, scored five points in 15 games this season.
Like all the other players on that roster, he's been struggling to find his rhythm.
However, strong performances could convince teams to acquire him for the playoffs.
He's currently going through the last season of his $3M AAV contract.
The Red Wings and the Capitals could both make it to the playoffs this year, but nothing is sure yet.
If they end up in the race, Duclair would be a great asset to have.
He's extremely skilled and is known for his offensive IQ, especially in the power play.
Both teams could benefit from adding a winger to their top nine who can produce in the power play.
