Zach Fucale Signs With Washington Capitals

August 19, 2020 at 11:01 am CDT | by Gavin Lee 1 Comment

The Washington Capitals have shored up their goaltending depth for next season, signing Zach Fucale to a one-year, two-way contract for 2020-21. The deal will see Fucale earn $700K in the NHL and $75K in the AHL.

There was a time when Fucale was one of the top goaltending prospects in the entire world. Selected 36th overall in 2013 (the top goaltender in that entire draft class), the Montreal Canadiens believed they had the next great French-Canadian goalie. Things haven’t gone quite that smoothly since however, as Fucale never did make it to the NHL in Montreal. In fact, the 25-year-old goaltender has spent more time in the ECHL than the AHL over his professional career.

That might be where he is heading in the Capitals organization too, though there will be an opportunity to move up if the team doesn’t bring Braden Holtby back. In any case, it’s unlikely that Fucale will play a role with the NHL team unless injury strikes.

    Craig Button stated before Fucale’s draft, that he (Fucale) was the best young goalie that he (Button) had seen in years.

    The NHL’s Matt Millen.
