The Red Wings acquired defenseman Madison Bowey and a 2020 second-round pick in exchange for defenseman Jensen and a 2020\u00a0fifth-round pick.<\/p>\n<h2>Key Players<\/h2>\n<p>In Jensen, the Capitals get a stay at home defenseman. Jensen has never been a goal-scoring defenseman but holds his own on the blue line. This season, he scored two goals and 13 assists for 15 points, adding 17 minutes in penalties. His possession numbers are\u00a0 49.7 percent Corsi\u00a0and a relative Corsi of 1.1 percent. Those totals are up compared to last season, where he scored 0 goals, 15 assists for 15 points. Over his three year NHL career,\u00a0Jensen has played solely\u00a0for the Red Wings. In that time, he has\u00a0<i>6<\/i>\u00a0goals and\u00a0<i>37<\/i>\u00a0assists for\u00a0<i>43<\/i>\u00a0career points in\u00a0<i>190<\/i>\u00a0career games. He was originally drafted in the 1st round,\u00a0<i>150th<\/i>\u00a0overall of the 2013 NHL draft by the Detroit Red Wings.<\/p>\n<p>In Bowey, the Wings get a growing defenseman that failed to live up to his potential in Washington. He does however\u00a0rack up penalty minute and provides some blue line protection.\u00a0 This season, he scored 1 goal and 5 assists for 6\u00a0 points, adding 38 minutes in penalties. His possession numbers are 45.3 percent Corsi\u00a0and a relative Corsi of -2.8. Those totals are better compared to last season, where he scored 0 goals, 12 assists for 12 points. Over his 2-year NHL career, Bowey has played for the\u00a0Capitals. In that time, he has\u00a0<i>1<\/i>\u00a0goal and\u00a0<i>17<\/i>\u00a0assists for 18 career points in 84 career games. He was originally drafted in the second round, 53rd overall of the <i>2013\u00a0<\/i>NHL draft by the Washington\u00a0Capitals.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo: <a id=\"RpTkMyOZRVBuQuwrcQWq4g\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1089178378\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'RpTkMyOZRVBuQuwrcQWq4g',sig:'_sPiZ3V2T_1_PDMBYkdOlRpZI8G59b5U2bJY4uMxLdE=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1089178378',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Detroit Red Wings have agreed to trade Nick Jensen to the Washington Capitals in exchange for Madison Bowey and a 2020 second round pick.
