from Isabelle Khurshudyan of the Washington Post,
In his past five starts, Braden Holtby is undefeated with a 0.60 goals-against average and a 0.978 save percentage. Grubauer didn’t allow for any drop off on Sunday, especially in the first two periods when the rest of his teammates were sleepwalking through the game.
“Our goalie seemed to be not letting anything in,” Justin Williams said. “It’s always nice.”...
The Capitals have now had four shutouts in their past six games, a key to their nine-game winning streak. Holtby’s run has rightfully been garnering a lot of attention, but Grubauer has quietly put together an impressive season. He’s 8-1-1 with .935 save percentage and 1.74 goals-against average this season. He’ll be a restricted free agent at the end of the season and due for a pay raise.
