Unlucky loss Saturday Lindgren stopped 23 of 25 shots in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Canucks.

Impact The Capitals altered their goaltending rotation to allow Logan Thompson to start Tuesday in his hometown of Calgary. That meant a second straight start for Lindgren, who played well but didn't get much help from his teammates in this narrow loss. Quinn Hughes had both of the goals for the Canucks. Lindgren slipped to 11-9-2 with a 2.51 GAA and a .904 save percentage over 23 appearances. Assuming the alternating pattern resumes next week, Lindgren should be penciled in to start in the road-trip finale at Ottawa on Thursday.

Set to face Vancouver Lindgren is expected to start on the road against Vancouver on Saturday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Lindgren will make his second straight start after earning a 22-save shutout over Seattle on Thursday. He's 11-8-2 with a 2.53 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 22 outings. Logan Thompson will then get the nod Tuesday in Calgary. The Canucks are tied for 23rd in goals per game with 2.81.

Earns shutout in return to action Lindgren posted a 22-save shutout in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Kraken.

Impact This was Lindgren's first game action since Jan. 10 versus the Canadiens. The 31-year-old had lost his previous four results (0-2-2), but he snapped that skid with his first shutout of the season. His upper-body injury gave Logan Thompson a chance to gain some momentum between the pipes, so it's possible Lindgren may not see the steady 50-50 split of playing time there was prior to his absence. Lindgren is 10-8-2 with a 2.65 GAA and a .900 save percentage over 21 outings. The Capitals continue their road trip in Vancouver on Saturday.

Guarding cage against Kraken Lindgren will patrol the crease on the road versus Seattle on Thursday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Lindgren will make his first appearance in the crease since Jan. 10 against the Habs when he suffered an upper-body injury. The netminder is currently stuck in a four-game losing streak during which he posted a 3.16 GAA. Barring any setbacks, Lindgren could work his way into a split share, something the duo managed well for most of the season.

Impact Lindgren practiced with the Capitals on Wednesday and traveling will allow him to continue to skate with his teammates. He seems to be making good progress and might return as early as Saturday versus Pittsburgh. The 31-year-old has a 10-8-2 record, 2.65 GAA and .900 save percentage in 21 appearances in 2024-25.

Exits Friday's game Lindgren (upper body) won't return to Friday's game versus the Canadiens.

Impact Lindgren suffered the injury in a collision, and while he initially stayed in the game, he later exited in the second period. Lindgren stopped all nine shots he faced prior to his exit, but the Capitals couldn't maintain a 1-0 lead after he left the contest, so he won't end up with a decision on his record. If Lindgren ultimately misses time, Logan Thompson would likely serve as a full-time starter in his absence.

Starting against Habs Lindgren will be in goal for Friday's home matchup with Montreal, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Impact Despite Lindgren having lost four straight contests, including an overtime loss in each of his previous two, the Caps continue to roll with their every-other plan for the two netminders. During his current winless streak, the 31-year-old Lindgren is sporting a 3.16 GAA and .880 save percentage. If he can't start putting together wins soon, the team may have to consider handing more starts over to Logan Thompson, who is expected to get the nod on the road against Nashville on Saturday.

Drops fourth straight decision Lindgren made 24 saves in regulation and overtime and turned aside two of four shootout attempts in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Sabres.

Impact The 31-year-old netminder has hit a bit of a rough patch. Lindgren has given up three or more goals in four straight starts, going 0-2-2 over that stretch with a 3.16 GAA and an .880 save percentage. The Capitals appear willing to let him work through it while remaining in a timeshare with Logan Thompson, but the play of the two goalies are headed in opposite directions -- Thompson has won four straight starts while posting a 2.01 GAA and a .935 save percentage.
