Darcy Kuemper - Slated to start Thursday Kuemper is expected to start on the road against Anaheim on Thursday.

Impact Kuemper has a 4-4-2 record, 2.95 GAA and .894 save percentage in 10 contests this season. He saved 21 of 23 shots in his last start against San Jose on Monday but didn't get offensive support and consequently suffered a 2-1 loss. Anaheim ranks 28th offensively this campaign with 2.68 goals per game.

Aliaksei Protas - Provides pair of helpers Protas notched two assists in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Impact Protas had the secondary helpers on goals by Anthony Mantha and Connor McMichael as the Capitals' third line carried the offense Wednesday. The 22-year-old Protas has found offense in bursts lately with three multi-point efforts over his last nine games, racking up two goals and six assists in that span. He's up to nine points, 22 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 18 outings overall, though his limited role doesn't bode well for sustaining his recent level of production in the long run.

Lindgren makes 38 saves, Capitals end Kings' 5-game win streak | NHL.com McMichael, Mantha each has goal, assist for Washington, which is held to 15 shots

NOVEMBER 30, 2023 • NHL.COM

Anthony Mantha - Pair of points in win Mantha scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Impact Mantha had gone four games without a point since he returned from an ear injury that cost him three contests. The 29-year-old saw just 11:34 of ice time, but he made the most of it while filling his usual third-line role. Mantha has four goals, two assists, 26 shots on net, nine hits and a plus-4 rating through 15 appearances, though his low ice time makes him a risky option at best in fantasy.

Connor McMichael - One of each Wednesday McMichael scored a goal and added an assist in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Impact McMichael's tally at 18:30 of the second period stood as the game winner. He and Anthony Mantha set up each other's goals in the contest. McMichael had picked up just one assist over his previous four outings. The 22-year-old is up to five goals, 10 points, 33 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 19 appearances. He's primarily played in a third-line role at center since Nicklas Backstrom (hip) stepped away from the team.

NOVEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Charlie Lindgren - Stellar in Wednesday's win Lindgren stopped 37 of 38 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Kings.

Impact Lindgren earned his fifth win in his last six appearances with the great effort against one of the league's best offenses. The Capitals' third line did the rest, scoring both goals to lead the way to the win. Lindgren is up to 5-2-0 with a 2.30 GAA and a .933 save percentage through seven games this season. He's working his way into a timeshare with Darcy Kuemper, who will likely start Thursday in Anaheim. Don't be surprised if Lindgren and Kuemper split the workload more evenly in the short term.

Charlie Lindgren - Slated to start Wednesday Lindgren is expected to start on the road against the Kings on Wednesday, according to Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

Impact Lindgren has a 4-2-0 record, 2.51 GAA and .926 save percentage in six contests this season. That's a great start to the campaign, but he did allow five goals on 35 shots in a 5-0 loss to Edmonton in his last appearance Friday. He's also up against an elite team in the Kings, who have a 13-3-3 record and rank first offensively with 4.00 goals per game. Washington will also play Thursday against Anaheim, so if Lindgren is starting Wednesday, then Darcy Kuemper will likely get the nod versus the Ducks.

Impact Van Riemsdyk has picked up three helpers and a plus-2 rating over four games since returning from a lower-body injury that sidelined him for four contests. The 32-year-old blueliner was listed on the third pairing but maintained top-four minutes with Martin Fehervary easing back into action. Van Riemsdyk is up to four helpers, 15 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 14 outings overall.

Martin Fehervary - Snags helper in return Fehervary notched an assist, two hits and two PIM in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Sharks.

Impact Fehervary missed five games with a lower-body injury and was eased back into action with 15:08 of ice time Monday. He helped out on Evgeny Kuznetsov's second-period tally, which tied the game at 1-1. Fehervary is up to three helpers, 18 shots on net, 31 hits, 21 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-1 rating through 13 contests overall. He'll likely see his workload increase gradually as he gets back up to speed.
