Very weird. Doesn't seem to be cap-related at first glance. They've sent down six players on Sept. 21, which is neither a game day for them nor any sort of deadline or other roster trigger. The only out-of-the-ordinary thing going on is the World Cup round-robin stage ending on that date. The return of players from eliminated WC teams triggered some roster shuffling amongst other teams in the league, but nothing like what Boston did.
My first suspicion is some odd scenario that resulted from an overlap of the training camp invites, unlimited roster size, returning WC players, and maybe injuries. But we're going to have to dig into this a little further to try to figure out what exactly that was. Looking through the transaction logs, I also see another small oddity in the way Washington keeps moving Brett Leason up and down, so we'll take a look at that, too. Probably not related, but still needs looking at.
