Varlamov unlikely to return with the Capitals. KHL a possibility?

"Varlamov is unlikely to re-sign with the #Caps, I learned. The resolution will take place before July 1."

Damn this is pretty big news for the Caps.

The loss can be justified by the fact they still have Neuvirth and Holtby.

Yeah I really don't see this as a huge loss for the Caps if he does go back to the KHL

Neuvirth can hold his own as a starter and Holtby showed he's a viable option as well.

Varlamov to Colorado for 2012 1st & 2nd Round picks

Washington made out like bandits there. That pick could potentially be a lottery pick in a deep draft.

thats a steal imo

If Varlamov gets injured the Avs just might be SOL. They don't have Anderson to save them anymore. Although I think their team is improved a bit with Johnson, and what could be Stewart's replacement, Landeskog. That still won't make them a playoff team
