When the Caps went on the power play in the second period, Braden Holtby showed off another part of his game that we adore: his offense. After an Oiler shot a puck on net, Holtby gloved the puck out of the air, threw it to the ice, and chucked a 110-foot pass to Troy Brouwer at the opposing blue line.
Dude wanted his seventh career assist.
This is seriously so amazing.
Look how Holtby perfectly tosses the puck over Matt Hendricks’ outstretched hand. Look how the puck lands right on Brouwer’s tape. Unfortunately, the Brouwer Pouwer leader booted the pass, but it was still a great sequence.
Holtby attempted the same play two years ago and it actually worked.
Teach me your ways, Braden.
