Washington's phone lines are burning up!

The San Jose Sharks, Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs are said to be the big players in the Brendan Witt sweepstake, but what may be the sticky point is the Capitals wanting to get rid of holdout Alexander Semin. Yes Semin is amazing but he is also a royal pain in the ass and is possibly the next Alexei Yashin so teams are not wiling to move on him. Another problem with Semin is the fact that he would come expensive. He is a highly touted rookie that is said to have the flash of Pavel Bure, but a first round pick would be the starting point for this guy…He would be a perfect fit in Toronto and with the lack of depth this year in the draft if you are gong to get him do it now…IMO the draft realy falls off after the top 15, Ryan Kessler will go no. 1 for sure as he is coming in with the same hype as Alexander Ovechkin (this years world juniors will be worth watching to just watch this kid). What is being talked about is this

To Toronto:
Witt
Semin
3rd round pick

To Washington:
Aki Berg
Carlo Coliacovo
First round pick
