The Caps have pretty much solved any cap problems they might have had with this deal. It raises the cost to get Naslund, Schnieder or Nagy.
losing a top dman like Boucher is tough. However, the Capitals get two young dmen that should rerate ok. As well as a guy that will injure other teams stars in Ben Eager.
Kieth and Krajicek will step into the lineup right away.
