Michal Neuvirth is back in Washington after spending most of the summer at home in the Czech Republic.
He spoke with Mike Vogel in an interview, on the Capitals' official website, and talked about his controversial translated comments from another interview with iSportz.cz. Neuvirth said that there were some "misunderstandings" and that some of the things he said had their meanings changed. In some quotes from the piece, it sounded like he took critical shots at teammates Braden Holtby and Alex Ovechkin, but he said that wasn't the intent of the comments. He said he talked to Holtby and Ovechkin afterward and they are all still on good terms. Neuvirth later commented that the translated interview "didn't sound like [him] at all" and that several of his teammates contacted him to tell him that they know him for who he really is.
