| Well most of us already commented on how excellent he plays. Give him a few years to mature and hope that Washington doesn't destroy his confidence and you're right, he'll be one of the top 10 in the league for sure. |

| It's hard to tell. Varlamov was excellent in the playoffs last year. He's young though and the maturation process for a goalie can work both ways. I remember when Patrick Lalime broke into the league, he won 15 straight games. He was an allstar in Ottawa, and then he disappeared. He's been a backup ever since. So I guess we'll see, but the potential is there. |

During the first round of the 2009 playoffs against the New York Rangers, Varlamov was given the starting job after Théodore allowed 4 goals to lose game one.[4] He subsequently made his NHL playoff debut on April 18, 2009, losing the second game of the series 1–0. He went on to win game three 4–0 on April 20, recording his first career NHL shutout. On April 24, game five of the series, Varlamov achieved his second shutout by the same score, 4–0. He won the next two games 5–3 and 2–1, respectively, to help the Washington Capitals advance to the second round of the playoffs for the first time since 1998. In Game 1 of the second round against the Pittsburgh Penguins, Varlamov made a spectacular save on Sidney Crosby that NHL pundits have dubbed "the save of the playoffs."[5] In Game 7 of that series, after allowing four early goals, he was pulled in favor of deposed starter José Théodore. Crosby would get his revenge, scoring the first and last goal in a 6-2 win, eliminating the Capitals on their way to the Stanley Cup.
