Washington’s Braden Holtby has had a strong game throughout the afternoon against the Philadelphia Flyers, and forward Wayne Simmonds knows it all too well.
With the Capitals holding a 2-1 lead early in the second period, Simmonds skated in all alone on Holtby and got the Washington goalie sprawled out on the ice. All that did was give Holtby a chance to make a spectacular leg save as Simmonds attempted to tie the game.
