Alex Ovechkin - Out Sunday Ovechkin (lower body) will not play Sunday against the Rangers, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Postreports.
Impact Ovechkin will miss the back half of a home-and-home set with the Rangers as he continues to recover from a lower-body injury sustained during a 6-2 loss to the Hurricanes on Jan. 5. The 38-year-old has a chance to return Tuesday against the Ducks, so fantasy managers should check back for updates in the interim. Max Pacioretty is expected to fill in on the top line alongside Dylan Strome and T.J. Oshie in the interim.

Charlie Lindgren - Between the pipes Sunday Lindgren will get the road start Sunday against the Rangers, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Lindgren will get back-to-back matinee appearances after stopping 25 of 27 shots faced during Saturday's 3-2 win against the Rangers. The 30-year-old has been the more consistent of the Capitals two netminders and getting the call on back-to-back games indicates Lindgren will continue to have a significant role moving forward. Darcy Kuemper might be at the top of the depth chart, but Lindgren's stellar play (2.25 GAA, .928 save percentage) has turned Washington into a legitimate timeshare between the pipes.
