In goal Tuesday Thompson will get the starting nod at home versus the Canadiens on Tuesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Thompson has secured just one win in his last five outings, going 1-3-1 with a 2.80 GAA and .908 save percentage. If the backstop can maintain those ratios, he should start racking up more victories, assuming he can get more offensive support and could challenge for the 30-win mark.

Cruises to win Friday Thompson stopped 23 of 24 shots in Friday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Thompson ended a four-game skid, in which he allowed 13 goals on 128 shots while going 0-3-1. Given his success from earlier in the year, that's not a terrible cold spell for the 28-year-old netminder, though it was still a positive to see him take care of business against a Chicago team that was ravaged by an illness. Thompson is up to 16-12-4 on the year with a 2.35 GAA and a .916 save percentage over 32 starts. The Capitals are back in action Sunday versus the Predators to close out this quick two-game road trip.

Gets little help in loss Thompson stopped 32 of 35 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Stars, with Dallas' final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact The Capitals didn't even get onto the board until the third period, and their defense was just as flat as their offense, as two of the shots that got past Thompson came from right on his doorstep. The 28-year-old netminder has gone four straight starts without getting into the win column, and since a shutout of the Leafs on Dec. 18, Thompson's stumbled to a 1-5-1 record with a 3.71 GAA and .885 save percentage.

He's posted a save percentage of .900 or higher in four of his last seven appearances, however, so at least he's putting up decent individual numbers even when the team is struggling.
