Hell yeah, I'd love to get Ovechkin

But seriously, can the Capitals finish 3rd in the East? I've made my feelings known about that rule (If you absolutely wanted to have a team from each division in the playoffs, you could put them where they belong instead of 3rd), but can they still catch up in their division? If they don't, and even if they do, they still hurt their future unless they can sign Huet to an extension. It's a gamble, and it could pay off if they go far in the playoffs, but I'm not in love with what they've been doing as much as you.
