Braden Holtby Returns To Crease On Monday
4 years agoVancouver Canucks goaltender Braden Holtby will draw the start as his team looks to grab a victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Monday. The 31-year-old is fresh off an immaculate performance versus the Ottawa Senators on Thursday in which he turned aside 36 of 37 shots against in a victory. After having inked a two-year, $8.6 million contract with Vancouver as a free-agent over the offseason, Holtby has kicked off his tenure as a Canuck with three wins, a 3.17 goals-against average and a .906 save percentage in five starts. Facing the league's most prolific offense early on (4.1 goals-per-game), Holtby can be considered an average starting option on the first day of weekly fantasy matchups.
