Overall, the 29-year-old netminder has a 24-19-6 record, a 2.38 GAA and a .914 save percentage across 49 outings this season. Despite the difficult matchup, his strong resume makes him a good option in most fantasy formats for Tuesday and beyond.

Logan Thompson backstops Capitals to 2-1 win over the Devils

Set to start Friday Thompson is expected to be in goal at home against New Jersey on Friday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Thompson has played in nine of the Caps' last 11 outings while posting a 5-3-1 record and 2.12 GAA. At some point, the team may decide to ease up on the workload for Thompson, considering it faces a significant uphill battle in securing a playoff spot. Until then, Thompson's ratios continue to be decent, and he's getting frequent starts, making him a top-end fantasy target.

Cruises to win Thompson stopped 34 of 35 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Senators.

Impact Thompson was coming off just one win over his last five outings despite posting a solid 2.61 GAA in that stretch, so it's safe to say he needed this kind of performance. The 29-year-old was excellent throughout the game, and while the final score looked like a comfortable win for Washington, the game certainly wasn't as such. Thompson might be on the verge of turning things around since he's allowed just three goals on 69 shots faced over his last two appearances.

In goal Wednesday Thompson will be between the pipes at home against the Senators on Wednesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Thompson has managed just one win in his last five outings despite a decent 2.61 GAA over that stretch. While the 29-year-old backstop is unlikely to reach the 30-win threshold, he should still manage 25 victories for the third straight year. His current 2.42 GAA this season would mark a career best for the Calgary native.

Tough shootout loss Saturday Thompson turned aside 32 shots in regulation and overtime and eight of nine shootout attempts in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Bruins.

Impact Washington took leads in the second and third periods, only for Charlie McAvoy to put pucks past Thompson each time to tie it up. The 29-year-old netminder then got locked in an epic shootout battle with Jeremy Swayman that was only decided when Fraser Minten beat Thompson on the backhand in the ninth round. Thompson has allowed no more than three goals in eight straight starts since the beginning of February, going 4-3-1 over that stretch with a .915 save percentage.

In goal Saturday Thompson will patrol the home crease against Boston on Saturday, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.

Impact Thompson has one win in his last four outings (1-3-0) while allowing 11 goals on 99 shots. However, he has gone 22-19-4 this campaign with two shutouts, a 2.44 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 45 appearances. Boston sits 11th in the league with 3.29 goals per game this season.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Loses to Flyers Thompson stopped 18 of 21 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Flyers. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Thompson has lost three of his last four outings, but he's gone seven games without allowing more than three goals. The 29-year-old's rough patch isn't helping the Capitals' fading playoff hopes. He's down to 22-19-4 with a 2.44 GAA and a .911 save percentage across 45 contests, one shy of his career high from 2023-24. The workload may be catching up to Thompson, but he's still providing steady ratios even if the wins don't follow. The Capitals will likely turn to Charlie Lindgren for Thursday's tough matchup in Buffalo.

MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE

Slated starter Wednesday Thompson is expected to start on the road against Philadelphia on Wednesday, per Adam Kimelman of NHL.com.

Impact Thompson has a 22-18-4 record, 2.42 GAA and .912 save percentage in 44 outings in 2025-26. He stopped 23 of 26 shots in a 7-3 victory over Calgary in his last start Monday. Thompson turned aside 23 of 24 shots en route to a 3-1 victory over the Flyers on Feb. 25, so he'll be looking for a similar result Wednesday.

MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE

Yields three goals in win Thompson turned away 23 of 26 shots on goal in Monday's 7-3 win over the Flames.

Impact Thompson kept the Flames off the scoreboard in both the first and third periods but ran into trouble in the second, where he allowed three goals, including a pair of shorthanded tallies. He earned the win all the same, improving to 22-18-4 on the season with a 2.42 GAA and a .912 save percentage across 44 appearances this year. With the Capitals six points out of a playoff spot in the Metropolitan Division, Thompson will likely be deployed often down the stretch, upholding his already strong fantasy value moving forward. If he continues to find the win column, he should be a strong candidate to be nominated for the Vezina Trophy at the end of the season.
