Washington green-lights Braden Holtby for Monday's road clash with Pittsburgh
Washington Capitals netminder Braden Holtby will man the crease on Monday as Washington takes on the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Holtby has been on a tear recently, with wins in each of his last five starts. He has three shutouts and only three goals allowed in that span. His six shutouts on the season are a league-high, and his .933 save percentage and 1.85 goals against average this season are his best marks since his 2010-2011 rookie year.
Holbty is our second-rated fantasy goalie among the 14 starters in action today. Our models project him for 29.7 saves, 2.2 goals against and a 59.0 percent chance of recording a win.
