It turns out Braden Holtby can save more than just pucks.
The Washington Capitals netminder and his wife, Brandi, helped rescue a trapped kitten on Monday.
Tonight, our evening walk turned into a rescue mission to save a sweet (& very frightened) kitten who was hiding in a little hole on the Woodrow Wilson bridge! pic.twitter.com/WxXrbQMJON

Some fellow passersby helped out, too.
With the help of some amazing strangers, a can of tuna, and a bit of patience, we got her out! (She is in the box so we could walk her off the bridge without being clawed) pic.twitter.com/VbYHAN5TTt

This could go down as the second-greatest save of Holtby's career. There's no contest for No. 1, though.
