Just thought we would ask...

What do the following players have in common?

Glen Metropolit
Michael Nylander
Jeff Friesen
Brent Johnson
John Erskine

Since 2001, all were obtained by the Caps between the opening of training camp and before the first full month of the season was in the books.*

OK, Jason Doig is in this group, too, but we're just sayin'...









* Metropolit -- October 20, 2001; Nylander -- November 1, 2002; Friesen -- September, 26, 2005; Johnson -- October 4, 2005; Erskine -- September 14, 2006. Oh, and Doig -- September 13, 2002.
