Braden Holtby plays extremely well in loss
Braden Holtby - G - Washington Capitals
Feb. 18, 2013 - 11:40 AM ET

Braden Holtby drew praise for how well he played Sunday night, but he didn't get enough help.

Holtby made 38 saves, 29 in a row. "You know he's not going to make every single one of them. He made more than enough to try and win us the game tonight," winger Troy Brouwer said. "It's as well as I've seen him play. He gave us lots of opportunities to win it, unfortunately we couldn't help him out." While it seems he's the team's goalie for now, Holtby needs to string together a few more outings like this before fantasy owners can feel confident using him.
