Philipp Grubauer getting nod Tuesday as Capitals open back-to-back
Washington Capitals goalie Philipp Grubauer will start in Tuesday's matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
What It Means:
The Capitals' number-two tender has gone 11-6-2 this season with a 2.13 goals-against average and .924 save percentage. Look for Braden Holtby to return to the post on Wednesday against the New York Rangers. Toronto has the fifth-best offense in the NHL (3.09 goals per game), so Grubauer will have his work cut out for him.
McElhinney is numberFire's 10th-ranked fantasy goalie on Tuesday's heavy 13-game slate. Our models project him for 26.1 saves, 2.4 goals against and a 55.0 percent chance of scoring a win.
