When training camp opens in September, Jose Theodore will be the starting goaltender for the Capitals. Semyon Varlamov ended last season as Washington's No. 1 goaltender. "Right now Jos? is the number one guy and the other two young men [Varlamov and fellow prospect Michal Neuvirth] have got to come in and play the way they did last year and try to push him out," coach Bruce Boudreau said, according to the Washington Post. "Jos? won [32] games for us last year, and like the year before when Cristobal Huet got hot down the stretch, Varly came in and did a great job where we just couldn't take him out. "But that was 13 games. It doesn't make up for 12 years of experience. I've seen an awful lot of goalies come in at a young age and go into a slump for a year or two. I think Jos? has earned and deserves the right [to be] the number one guy."
