Copley allowed two goals while making 27 saves during Thursday's 4-2 win over Arizona.

EDGE Analysis

Copley played well filling in for Braden Holtby during Thursday's victory. The win takes the big goalie's record to 6-2-1 on the season, as he's played admirably when called on in his backup role.

Copley will guard the goal Thursday against the Coyotes in Phoenix, Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Copley has taken advantage of his opportunities in net this season, posting a 5-2-1 record through nine appearances in goal. However, his best work has come on home ice so far. In seven road showings, Copley sports just a 3.42 GAA and an .887 save percentage. He will take the crease Thursday looking to improve on those numbers against a Coyotes squad tallying just 2.58 goals per game.

Copley stopped 27 of 30 shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

The Caps' backup netminder continues to get more than enough offensive support, and Copley now boasts a 5-2-1 record despite a sub-par .899 save percentage on the season. He's no threat to Braden Holtby's starting job, but Copley does have some value in DFS and season-long formats that allow you to maximize goalie starts, as he has a better-than-average chance at a win any time he's in the crease.

Copley will start in goal Saturday, as he prepares for a matinee against the Rangers in New York, Chris Kuc of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Capitals went with Braden Holtby in Friday's 3-1 home win over the Red Wings, so Copley gets the road assignment against a Rangers team that is 9-3-0 at Madison Square Garden. The rookie netminder from North Pole, Alaska has never faced a New York team, with his road record standing at 3-3-0 to go along with a 3.67 GAA and .875 save percentage over eight games.

Copley didn't factor into the decision Monday, as he was pulled in favor of Braden Holtby after yielding four goals on 22 shots in a 5-4 overtime road win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Capitals coach Todd Reirden pulled Copely after the traditional backup netminder surrendered three goals 1:25 into the second period, and that was after defenseman Mike Reilly beat him with a short-side wrister. This turned out to be an excellent decision by the bench boss, as Holtby saved all 18 shots that came his way and ended up winning in overtime.

Copley will be between the pipes for Monday's road clash with Montreal, Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Copley will be making his fourth consecutive appearance in net while filling in for Braden Holtby (upper body) -- who will serve as the backup. With Holtby's return on the horizon, the 26-year-old Copley will return to his spot on the bench; however, his 4-2-1 record with a .908 save percentage prior to Monday's tilt could earn him some additional starts down the road.

Copley allowed two goals on 26 shots in a 3-2 overtime victory against the Avalanche on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

He bested the Capitals former goaltender, Philip Grubauer. It's still a small sample size for the backup netminder, but he's really started to play well recently. In the last four games, Copley is 3-1-0 with a .927 save percentage. Overall, he is 4-2-0 with a .908 save percentage and 2.65 GAA. In the right matchup, he's a streaming option in all leagues.

Copley will be between the pipes for Friday's road match against the Avalanche, Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Copley will make his third consecutive start and could be in for more work with Braden Holtby (upper body) on the injured list. However, top prospect Ilya Samsonov was flown into Denver overnight, so it's also possible the Caps will give him a start or two if Holtby remains sidelined into next week. With a 2.01 GAA and .929 save percentage in his last three starts, the 26-year-old Alaskan is worth owning in all formats for now.

Copley stopped 21 of 23 shots in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Pressed into action for the second straight night after Braden Holtby (upper body) was a late scratch, Copley kept the Capitals in the game before the Jets finally broke through with the game-winner almost 13 minutes into the third period. The 26-year-old has already seen action in a career-high six games this season, but he could be looking at a much heavier workload if Holtby's injury proves to be more than minor.

Copley will start Wednesday's game in Winnipeg, Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wednesday's contest was meant to be handled by Washington's primary netminder, Braden Holtby. However, prior to puck drop, it was announced that Copley would get the nod and the Capitals would be forced to dress an emergency backup behind him. Meanwhile, Holtby (undisclosed) has been ruled out Wednesday.
