Pheonix Copley Registers Victory At Home

Washington Capitals goaltender Pheonix Copley allowed just one goal on 34 shots in Sunday's 3-1 home victory against the Winnipeg Jets.

Anthony Stolarz A Risky Fantasy Play Against Maple Leafs

Craig Anderson Looking To Slow Down The Streaking Bruins

Ottawa Senators goaltender Craig Anderson will be tending the twine on Saturday night against the Boston Bruins.
