The Red Wings have acquired Madison Bowey and a 2020 second-round pick from the Capitals for Nick Jensen and a 2019 fifth-round pick.
Bowey is a former second-round pick (2013) who started the year with the Capitals but has been a healthy scratch a lot recently. Bowey has one goal and five assists (six points) in 33 games this season. The 23-year-old is a strong skater, good passer and was a tremendous hitter in juniors but hasn’t shown it as frequently in the NHL. He should settle in as a third-pairing defenseman in Detroit for now and the Red Wings hope he can continue to grow into a top-4 defenseman.
Line Change
Bowey will be back in the Capitals lineup on Monday.
Bowey has been a healthy scratch for the last five games but is expected to replace Jonas Siegenthaler on Monday. Bowey has one goal, five assists, 38 PIMS and a plus-4 rating in 29 games this season.
