News and Notes
Nov 24 Theodore has left the Capitals to travel back to Washington for personal reasons.

Advice: To replace him, the team recalled Michal Neuvirth from the Hershey Bears of the AHL to be the backup to goalie Semyon Varlamov. It's unclear when Theodore will return to the team.

Nov 21 G Jose Theodore has practiced with the team but wasn't in the lineup Friday, still dealing with a personal matter that's rumored to be related to the tragic death of his infant child this past summer. The Caps are giving him all the time he needs to get settled. Yahoo! Sports

Nov 19 Theodore practiced again Thursday but looks like he will get some time off, the Washington Post reports.

Recommendation: Judging by comments by Bruce Boudreau, Jose Theodore is expected to get his mind right over the weekend. Boudreau expressed concern saying, "Everybody knows what's been going on, and sometimes you go through a rough break mentally. He wants to play so well and he wants to work hard for the team, but sometimes everything adds up, and we said, 'Take a step back for a couple days. We still think you're a great goaltender, but there's things physically you're doing everything right, but sometimes you're drained mentally.' So we want him to take a couple days, get ready, and start again." Look for Theo to get the weekend off, so make any pick-ups needed. It seems that Michal Neuvirth may get a start this weekend if you are in need of a start.
