Holtby is slated to square off against Michal Neuvirth and the Flyers on Sunday.

Analysis:

After the Caps reeled off three straight wins to open their first-round series against the Flyers, Neuvirth proceeded to out-duel Holtby in back-to-back games. While Holtby didn't play bad in the two losses, the Caps' once-commanding lead in the series has now been whittled down, thanks to the stellar play of Neuvirth in the Philadelphia net. If the Caps don't close things out Sunday, Game 7 would be on tap Wednesday in Washington.
