One of the stars of the Washington Capitals’ thrilling post-season series against the Boston Bruins has been goalie Braden Holtby, who made 44 saves in the Game 5 win on Saturday that gave the Caps the series lead. (That was before he was humbled on Sunday, though.)

But because Holtby is such a new star, replica jerseys bearing his name are hard to come by, reports WTOP. Larger sporting goods stores in the area don’t have his jerseys on hand, and even the NHL’s website isn’t carrying any currently. (There are 78 items with Alex Ovechkin’s name on them, though.) You could always customize a jersey, of course, with Holtby’s name and number.

EBay has one in stock—for $175!—and Amazon has one that’s more affordable (only $76). If you’re scrambling to find one, you better scramble faster—Game 7 is tomorrow.

UPDATE, 3:30 p.m.: As the sharp commenters point out below, there are jerseys available at the Kettler Iceplex.
