The Caps have a new head coach in Barry Trotz, which will bring about a different mentality if not a different system to the formerly free-wheeling Capitals.  What Trotz will do with more offensive talent than he has ever had at the NHL level will be interesting.

The Capitals are top-heavy up front when it comes to prospects and the blue line is pretty thin.  However, there is a guy out there that can bring even more flash and dash to the Capitals forward unit, and you just might have seen some of his work in a video from the NHL draft combine.

Sonny Milano is a winger from the U.S. National Under 18 team, and despite his lack of top end competition has puck skills that put most NHLers to shame and is a creative force. He will need a couple of years of seasoning before being NHL ready, but will continue the Capitals trend for thinking offense-first.
