Michal Neuvirth allowed four goals on 28 shots as the Capitals dropped a 5-2 decision to Chicago Sunday night. With Tomas Vokoun nursing an injury, Neuvirth should get the bulk of the upcomin playing time, but if he stumbles the Caps could turn to Braden Holtby for a game. It's a situation to monitor closely for anyone invested in the Washington goaltending situation.

Michal Neuvirth will get the start Sunday in Chicago. Braden Holtby was called up this morning from Hershey of the AHL and will be backing him up as Tomas Vokoun aggravated a lower-body injury on Friday night.

Michal Neuvirth blocked 26 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout victory over the Islanders. Neuvirth and the Caps fell behind early, but coach Dale Hunter stuck with him and was rewarded when the team roared back for a 5-4 win. It's anyone's guess whether he or Tomas Vokoun will start in Washington's next game.

Michal Neuvirth will start in Tuesday's game. We're not getting much notice because Capitals coach Dale Hunter didn't want to name his starting goaltender ahead of time. Neuvirth has a 2.78 GAA and .903 save percentage in 30 games this season.

Michal Neuvirth stopped all 23 of the Toronto Maple Leafs' shots in a 2-0 win for the Washington Capitals. Neuvirth has been stronger lately, which is great news for the Capitals and solid news for people who choose to add him for spot starts. Tomas Vokoun is still the No. 1 guy, but this might begin one of those spurts where Neuvirth grabs multiple starts.

Michal Neuvirth stopped 32 of 36 shots in the Capitals' 4-3 overtime loss to the Capitals Tuesday night. Tomas Vokoun sustained a lower body injury during warm-ups a few days ago but should be back between the pipes very soon now. In fact, Vokoun skated on Monday and Tuesday. While Vokoun is out of the lineup, Neuvirth should be owned in 12-team leagues.

Michal Neuvirth stopped 22 of 23 shots in the Capitals' 1-0 loss to the Flyers Sunday night. The loss can't be pinned on Neuvirth, who started for a fifth consecutive game in place of the injured Tomas Vokoun. He was coming off a poor performance Friday where he allowed five goals on only 20 shots. Sunday Neuvirth was certainly better and deserved a more favourable result.

Dale Hunter has confirmed that Michal Neuvirth will start in goal at home for Washington against the Philadelphia Flyers Sunday. It will be Neuvirth's fifth straight start Sunday. Tomas Vokoun is out with a lower-body injury and is listed day-to-day. While Vokoun is out of the lineup, Neuvirth should be owned in 12-team leagues.

Michal Neuvirth, starting in the Washington Capitals goal for their fourth consecutive game, had a poor outing Friday night in a 5-0 loss to the visiting New Jersey Devils. Neuvirth was able to stop only 15 of the Devils' 20 shots. He had allowed only five goals in his past three starts, all wins.

Michal Neuvirth will play between the pipes on Friday. It will be Neuvirth's fourth straight start. Every game is vital for Washington as they simultaneously fight for a playoff spot and the Southeast Division title, so it makes sense for them to ride the hot hand. Neuvirth has allowed five goals over his last three starts.
