Philipp Grubauer In For Caps Versus Preds
7 years agoWashington Capitals goaltender Philipp Grubauer will get the start Thursday night against the visiting Nashville Predators. The talented German netminder is having a career year and is currently riding a four-game winning streak. His 2.29 goals-against average and .925 save percentage on the season will be put to the test as the league's top team rolls into town. The Predators have slowed down somewhat of late with three wins in their last eight games and have allowed 3.5 goals against per game in that span. Braden Holtby is expected to close out the Caps regular season on Saturday. How these last two games play out will likely have an effect on the team's starting goaltender for the playoffs.
