Braden Holtby sticking in net for Capitals against Detroit

Washington Capitals goalie Braden Holtby will start in goal on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings.

What It Means:

Holtby was dominant in the Capitals' win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday, stopping all 23 shots he faced in the shutout. It marked his sixth win in a row and during that stretch he has a 1.83 goals-against average and a .930 save percentage.

Our models project Holtby for 23.3 saves, 1.6 goals against and a 76.0 percent chance of getting a win. He is numberFire's second-ranked fantasy goalie on Thursday's 11-game slate.
