Vokoun to the Capitals
Jeff Angus
2011-07-02
The Capitals get: An elite starting goaltender with a lot to prove. Tomas Vokoun had to settle for a measly one-year, $1.5 million contract, a far cry from the $5 million he has made each of the past few seasons in Florida. Did Philadelphia jump the gun on Bryzgalov?
Fantasy Players Impacted:
Huge, huge huge impact on both Braden Holtby and Michal Neuvirth, in the short term. Vokoun will likely see 45-55 starts, giving the rest of the workload to Neuvirth, who likely becomes the back up now. Long term, this is a great situation for Neuvirth, who can learn a lot from his fellow Czech. Holtby goes back down to the AHL for at least one more year.
Fantasy Players this helps, in order:
1. Tomas Vokoun, duh.
2. Neuvirth in the long term.
Fantasy Players this hurts, in order:
1. Neuvirth
2. Holtby
