He spent two and a half seasons with the Colorado Avalanche. José signed with the Washington Capitals in July 2008 where he played the next two seasons. He was awarded the Masterton Trophy in 2010.

Minnesota Wild?

José's name is being thrown around in association with the Minnesota Wild right now. Their backup goalie, Josh Harding, went down Friday night with a season-ending injury. Niklas Backstrom is their #1 goalie, but Harding was hoping to challenge him this season. Here's the blurb I found:

With Josh Harding likely out for the season with a serious knee injury, a source told ESPN.com on Saturday that the Minnesota Wild are looking at unrestricted free-agent netminder José Theodore as a possible replacement for the backup netminder. It doesn't mean the Wild will end up signing him, but a source confirmed they were looking at the veteran Theodore.
