Goalie Braden Holtby the victim of unlucky bounce
By Gene Wang

Braden Holtby first off the ice for Capitals
By Katie Carrera
Braden Holtby was the first goaltender off the ice this morning so it looks like he may get the start against Toronto at Air Canada Centre. There aren't any other roster mysteries with just 18 skaters on the trip and the lines should look like they did against the Islanders...

Braden Holtby bounces back against Islanders

Capitals recall Braden Holtby
By Katie Carrera
Goaltender Braden Holtby has been recalled from Hershey and was the first player on the ice at KCI this morning. Looks like at least one of the Capitals' netminders -- perhaps Semyon Varlamov, whom Coach Bruce Boudreau said last night wasn't feeling 100 percent -- is unavailable for the time...
