Capitals off season moves and draft picks

Glad to see Ziggy on the squad. With all the off-season pickups, and the late Chara move, I figured Fever was done.
Although I agree with Beaglefan...I'd like to USE our younger guys and see if they can develop. I think Ziggy has already earned a spot, but they just kept bringing in more guys. Maybe they plan a revolving door with D men on the Taxi squad . Anybody know if there is a limit to the number of moves to and fro the Taxi?. My understanding is it is basically just 4 extra roster spots that don't count against the Cap. I mean I don't really expect Chara to be full time everynight, but nine d-men is just too many.

I feel like this is half a waste of time, there's no way they got a good look at everyone in a week of practices

Sammy and Vitek....
has to be the youngest pair of goalies on any NHL team.
Can't believe the Caps are carrying 8 d-men. Shocked they haven't moved Jensen or Orlov. I thought with all the added D guys in the off-season we for sure were going to move somebody. Maybe since they currently fit the cap with Kempney out, they are hedging their bets until we see how/if the newbies work out.
