Michal Neuvirth has reportedly finalized his deal with HC Sparta Praha in the Czech Republic. Neuvirth is looking to bounce back from a rough season where he posted a 2.82 GAA and .903 save percentage in 38 games. He'll return to the Washington Capitals after the lockout ends and is projected to battle for playing time with Braden Holtby.
