Among the players invited is also French-Swiss goaltender Antoine Keller who was drafted by the Capitals on Thursday. As Keller told the Tribune de Genève, several teams had shown their interest in him, but he did not think he would get drafted this year once the 200th player was selected.
The Caps selected him with the 206th pick overall. While he knows that as a seventh-round pick, he will not have it easy to make it, he remains optimistic: "Being drafted opens a door for me. It's up to me to keep working."
