because some guy named vokoun convinced the caps office he could take us to the promised land.
holtby had his moments last year...they called him up mid-season this year just to try to spark the team, but he didn't have a great showing then actually. kids got a ton of talent. he's experienced post-season play with hershey...and he's a reason why varly went to colorado, we had several good young goalies, and he wanted the guarantee of #1 and the money to go with it. but he, neuvy and even holtby had times where they showed their youth all too much.

holtby has done very, very well-but i think he's also gotten a lot of help with the great D that the caps have been exhibiting. i look forward to watching his career unfold.
neuvirth probably curses marco sturm daily.


killing that double minor was huge for this team tonite. already feeling good, that only adds to their momentum.

Don't get me wrong, it's very good. But he does embellish every save.

not so sure that it's embellishment. he tends to go after the puck rather than let it come to the glove, so it does look a bit different than with some goalies. i doubt kolzig will try to make him change it tho. if it ain't broke and all that.

Lunqvist has lost two playoffs series to the Caps where the Caps had a rookie goaltender in net. Will this series be the third?
