Philipp Grubauer turns aside 27 shots in Washington win

Washington Capitals goalie Philipp Grubauer turned away 27 shots to help the Washington Capitals down the visiting Toronto Maple Leafs, 3-2, Wednesday night.

What It Means:

Grubauer, providing a respite to workhorse first-stringer Braden Holtby, improved his record on the season to 7-5-1. This was his first start since February 16.

His goals against average is 2.10, and his save percentage is .926. Grubauer will likely get the start again for Washington on Saturday against the Boston Bruins as the Capitals are looking to get some rest for Holtby.
