The Montreal Canadiens have traded goaltender Cristobal Huet to the Washington Capitals for a second-round draft pick.
Huet, 32, has a 21-12-6 record and 2.56 goals-against average this season with a .916 save percentage.
With Huet dealt, the Canadiens have turned to 20-year-old Carey Price as their third starting goaltender in as many seasons. Ironically, Huet became the team's new starter in 2006, when general manager Bob Gainey dealt former Hart and Vezina Trophy winner Jose Theodore to Colorado on the eve of the trading deadline.
