Learn More About Olaf Kölzig:

Olaf Kölzig was a professional ice-hockey goaltender.  Kölzig spent almost his entire 14-year career playing for the Washington Capitals.  He played eight games with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Kölzig was originally drafted by the Washington Capitals in 1989.  He played his first game that season but after that he was bumped down to the minor leagues. Kölzig played with the Baltimore Skipjacks, Rochester Americans and Portland Pirates of the AHL.  Olaf Kölzig also spent one year with the Hampton Roads Admiral of the East Coast Hockey League.  When he was playing with the Portland Pirates Kölzig was awarded with the Jack A. Butterfield Trophy and the Hap Holmes Memorial Award.

In 1995-96, the Capitals recalled him as their back-up for Jim Carey.  In 1996-97, the Capitals acquired Bill Ranford and Kölzig stayed as a back-up goaltender.  In early 1997 Ranford suffered an injury and Kölzig took over doing quite well, playing 33 games with a 2.20 goals against average.  In 2000 Kölzig won the Vezina Trophy.  Kölzig played with the Capitals until 2008 when he signed a contract with Tampa Bay.  Kölzig got injured and he could not play through the entire season.  In 2009 Kölzig announced his retirement.  Olaf Kölzig was inducted into the ECHL Hall of Fame in 2010.
