Capitals' Braden Holtby: Confirmed to start Thursday

As expected, Holtby will work between the pipes as Thursday's road starter versus the Devils, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

If you've been playing fantasy hockey for even a short amount of time, we'd bet that you're well aware of Holtby being one of the NHL's best tenders. He'll be participating in his third All-Star Game this weekend and has the 2016 Vezina Trophy on his mantel. In 15 career games against New Jersey, he's fashioned a 10-3-2 record, 1.91 GAA and .929 save percentage; that makes it worth paying top dollar for him in daily fantasy leagues Thursday.
