Set to start Wednesday Lindgren is set to start at home against the Rangers on Wednesday, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

Impact Lindgren has a 5-4-2 record, 3.07 GAA and .888 save percentage in 12 appearances this season.

Picks up loss in Detroit Lindgren conceded three goals on 27 shots Sunday in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Red Wings.

Impact The Capitals forced overtime after trailing during the third period Sunday, but Moritz Seider ultimately blasted home a pass from Andrew Copp past Lindgren with just 24 seconds remaining in the extra frame. Lindgren has lost his last two starts, a small stretch in which he's given up eight goals on 59 shots. Overall, the 32-year-old has a 5-4-2 record, .888 save percentage and 3.07 GAA across 12 appearances as the backup to Logan Thompson this year. Thompson will more than likely be back between the pipes Tuesday against the Rangers.

Starts Sunday Lindgren will start Sunday's game against the Red Wings, Mike Vogel of the Capitals' official site reports.

Impact It'll be Lindgren for the Capitals who gets the second of the back-to-back with the Red Wings on Sunday. The 32-year-old will be making just his third start of the month, bringing a 5-4-1 record, 3.10 GAA and an .887 save percentage to the contest, not what the veteran netminder has shown in the past. We'll see if he fares better than his counterpart Logan Thompson, who allowed four goals Saturday in the front end of the two-game set.

Yields five goals in loss Lindgren allowed five goals on 32 shots in Tuesday's 5-0 loss to the Wild.

Impact Lindgren made his first start in his second game since being activated from injured reserve following an upper-body issue. The 31-year-old netminder didn't get any help in his return to the crease, sending him to his first loss since Nov. 6 in Pittsburgh. He's now 5-4-1 with a 3.10 GAA and an .887 save percentage over 11 outings. Logan Thompson will likely be back between the pipes for Thursday's home game versus the Maple Leafs, but Lindgren should start once during the weekend's home-and-home set against the Red Wings.

The 31-year-old Lindgren owns a 5-3-1 record with one shutout, a 2.90 GAA and an .893 save percentage over 10 appearances in 2025-26. The Wild have won four consecutive games and now have Quinn Hughes in the fold, so this will be a formidable task for Lindgren.
