Capitals going with Braden Holtby in Game 6 against Pittsburgh
Washington Capitals goalie Braden Holtby didn't take part in the morning's optional skate, but he will start in Game 6 on Tuesday night.
He has posted a 1.53 goals against average and .947 save percentage in 11 playoff games. Holtby snapped a three-game losing skid in Game 5 on Saturday, and the Capitals will need another victory to force Game 7.
Our models give Holtby a 46.0 percent chance of defeating the Penguins in Game 6. We project him to make 24.10 saves on 26.44 attempts tonight.
