Player Notes
April 3, 2007
Olaf Kolzig made 27 saves and posted his first shutout in more than three years during the Capitals' 1-0 victory over the Panthers on Tuesday night. The shutout was Kolzig's first since Feb. 15, 2004 and the 34th of his 18-year NHL career.

March 9, 2007
Olaf Kolzig is shooting to return next Thursday against Boston, the Washington Post reports. Kolzig has missed the last three weeks with a partially torn MCL.

Olaf Kolzig probably will be out longer than the minimum three-week timeline originally projected for recovery from his partially torn MCL, according to the Washington Post. "It's torn, but not torn off the bone," Kolzig said. "If I was a positional player, I would probably be back in 10 days. But the MCL is the most-used ligament for a goalie."
February 13, 2007
Olaf Kolzig will be sidelined at least three weeks after suffering a knee injury in practice Monday, according to the Washington Post. "It's stating the obvious, but this is a huge blow," Coach Glen Hanlon said. "We're going to miss him in all areas. But it's over and done with. We're just working on getting him back in there." Brent Johnson will be the team's primary goalie while Kolzig is out.
