Capitals at it again, trade for Fedorov
Columbus Blue Jackets pending unrestricted free agent forward Sergei Fedorov has been traded to the Washington Capitals, reports TSN.
Update: 1:36PM According to Sportsnet’s Pierre LeBrun, the Capitals parted with defense prospect Teddy Ruth in exchange.
Word throughout the morning was that the Blue Jackets were heavily shopping Fedorov in hopes of moving him before the deadline.
This is the second trade for the Capitals today, as the club acquired Montreal Canadiens goalie Cristobal Huet earlier.
As for the Blue Jackets, they also made a move earlier, when they traded pending UFA defenseman Adam Foote to the Colorado Avalanche. Speculation is that may not be done.
More details to follow.
