Bruins make big move, add Dmitry Orlov and Garnet Hathaway from Caps

The Washington Capitals dealt veteran defenseman Dmitry Orlov and forward Garnet Hathaway to the Boston Bruins in exchange for forward Craig Smith and three draft picks as part of a three-way trade Thursday.

The Bruins are giving the Capitals their 2023 first-round pick, their 2024 third-rounder and their 2025 second-rounder in the trade. The Capitals retained 50 percent of Orlov’s salary.

The Minnesota Wild made it a three-team deal, sending Russian prospect Andrei Svetlakov to Washington for Orlov. The Wild took on 25 percent of Orlov’s salary and flipped him to the Bruins for a 2023 fifth-round draft pick.
