Lindgren turned aside 28 of 32 shots faced during Saturday's 5-3 home loss to the Devils. - Lindgren was victimized in particular by the Devils' third line of Stefan Noesen, Erik Haula, and Paul Cotter -- who were responsible for three of the five goals the Capitals surrendered. The 30-year-old enters the 2024-25 atop the depth chart after Washington sent Darcy Kuemper to the Los Angeles Kings for Pierre-Luc Dubois in the offseason, but he will need to find his footing in order to fend off Logan Thompson for starts after the latter had a solid showing during the preseason. |

Lindgren's teammates added the insurance goal at 14:22 of the same frame. He was outstanding in the second half of last season and will be out to prove he can sustain that kind of performance during the 2024-25 campaign. Logan Thompson's arrival in a summer trade suggests the two netminders will share duties. Watch for a hot-hand approach rather than an alternating split, meaning fantasy managers may need extra leather in the blue paint to ensure plenty of starts. |

Lindgren will patrol the crease at home versus the Blue Jackets on Friday, per a team press release. - After notching a 2.67 GAA and .911 save percentage behind a 25-16-7 record in 50 games last season, Lindgren enters the 2024-25 campaign as the top goaltender on Washington's depth chart following an offseason trade that sent Darcy Kuemper to the Los Angeles Kings. The 30-year-old netminder will need to fend off Logan Thompson to keep his claim on the starter's workload, but with a revamped defensive corps in front of him, Lindgren has a good chance to improve on last season's numbers and remain a solid fantasy asset. |

The 30-year-old netminder has given up 11 goals on 81 shots through three playoff games, and while that shaky save percentage isn't entirely his fault, Lindgren's still begun the playoffs with three straight losses, leaving Washington on the brink of elimination. |

The 30-year-old netminder has given up eight goals on 58 shots to begin Washington's postseason run, and while the poor results so far may not be completely Lindgren's fault, coach Spencer Carbury may consider turning to Darcy Kuemper between the pipes when the series shifts back to D.C. for Game 3 on Friday. |

The 30-year-old netminder has had a bumpy beginning to April, allowing 13 goals on 118 shots (.890 save percentage) while going 1-2-1 in four starts, but Washington will give him every chance to rediscover the form that saw him deliver a 2.13 GAA and .932 save percentage over 14 outings in November and December. |

Washington is clinging to the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference at the moment -- the Caps are tied with Detroit at 82 points but have a game in hand -- and coach Spencer Carbery seems willing to ride with Lindgren as his No. 1 goalie right to the end, despite the netminder's recent form. |

March 28, 2024 |
Lindgren is expected to get the road start Thursday against the Maple Leafs, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports. - Lindgren has largely supplanted Darcy Kuemper as the Capitals' lead goaltender in recent weeks and his 2.12 GAA and .929 save percentage behind a 8-2-0 record over the last 10 games is a significant reason why the Capitals are currently sitting in a playoff position. A road start against the Maple Leafs is never an easy assignment but with Auston Matthews (illness) questionable and the Toronto already without Mitch Marner (ankle) and Morgan Reilly (upper body), Lindgren has a chance to face a less potent Toronto attack than normal. Those who have ridden the 30-year-old's fortunes to the fantasy playoffs should continue to do so. |

Lindgren will patrol the home crease versus the Red Wings on Tuesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports. - Lindgren was unbeatable in his last start Sunday against the Jets, stopping all 27 shots he faced en route to a 3-0 victory.

Lindgren saved 21 of 23 shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Flyers. - After coughing up eight goals against the Red Wings on Tuesday, Lindgren looked like he might be in for another rough outing Friday when the Flyers grabbed a 2-0 lead in the first period. The 30-year-old netminder didn't lose focus, though, and shut the door the rest of the way. The win was his 13th of the season, tying the career high he set in 2022-23, but his hold on the starting job for the Capitals could be slipping -- since the beginning of February, Lindgren's gone 4-3-1 in eight starts with a shaky 3.46 GAA and .884 save percentage. |

Lindgren had moved into the top spot on the Caps' depth chart prior to his injury, posting a 2.27 GAA and .921 save percentage over seven outings in December before getting injury, and he'll likely regain it soon enough with Darcy Kuemper struggling badly since Christmas (4.26 GAA and .870 save percentage over his last six starts.) |

With Darcy Kuemper (upper body) banged up, Lindgren's workload could increase significantly in the short term, but his 2.87 GAA and .902 save percentage don't make him a particularly appealing fantasy option. |

Lindgren had little chance on the Ducks' first tally, which came on a breakaway after the Capitals defense fell asleep midway through the second period, but the netminder would probably like to have the next two back. Lindgren hasn't seen a lot of work lately behind a healthy Darcy Kuemper, and his recent performance hasn't warranted more action -- over seven appearances since the beginning of January, Lindgren has a 3.12 GAA and an .875 save percentage. |

The 29-year-old has lost both of his starts in January, and he's given up eight goals on 51 shots over three appearances this month. With Kuemper generally playing well -- Saturday aside -- Lindgren has had reduced opportunities to get between the pipes. He's at 11-6-2 with a 2.66 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 21 appearances, which are solid numbers for a backup. |

The first was a rocket one-timer from the left face-off circle on a 4-on-3 power play and the second came on a breakaway after the sniper stole the puck from Lars Eller.

Lindgren will be in the visiting crease against Toronto on Saturday, Samantha Pell of The Washington Post reports. - Lindgren has taken over as the No. 1 goaltender with the Capitals as Darcy Kuemper (upper body) has missed the last six games. Kuemper is slated to return at any time and could be well enough Saturday to be the backup, so Lindgren's time as the starter could be coming to an end. Lindgren is 7-4-2 with a 2.76 GAA and a .910 save percentage. He'll face the Maple Leafs, who are tied for third in the NHL standings with a 19-6-6 record. |
None |
Dec. 15, 2022 |
Per Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press, Lindgren was the first goaltender off the ice at practice Thursday, indicating that he will guard the home goal against Dallas. - Lindgren has won five straight games, improving his record to 7-3-2 this season. He has been stellar of late, giving up only nine goals on 146 shots during the winning streak and will provide Darcy Kuemper (upper body) with a battle for the top job, upon his return. Lindgren will be in tough against the Stars, who are tied for second in the NHL in goals scored with 110. |
None |
Dec. 13, 2022 |
Lindgren will guard the road goal versus the Blackhawks on Tuesday, Mike Vogel of the Capitals' official site reports. - Lindgren will make his sixth straight appearance, and he's won his last four starts while allowing just six goals overall in that shorter span.

None |
Dec. 12, 2022 |
Lindgren was named the NHL's "First Star" for the week of Dec. 5-11, per a team press release. - Lindgren made four starts over the week in place of Darcy Kuemper (upper body), posting a 1.50 GAA and .949 save percentage behind a perfect 4-0-0 record to get the injury-plagued Capitals back in playoff contention. The Capitals are likely to get the aforementioned Kuemper back from the injured list soon, but Lindgren has established himself as a capable netminder and should be started whenever he minds the cage. |
None |
Dec. 11, 2022 |
Lindgren stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Jets. - Lindgren has helped the Capitals not miss Darcy Kuemper (upper body) too much, as this was the former's fourth straight win. The Jets didn't have anything going until they scored twice early in the third period, but the Capitals were able to settle down and protect the lead. Lindgren improved to 6-3-2 with a 2.79 GAA and a .910 save percentage in 12 outings overall, but he hasn't allowed more than two goals in any of his last five games. With Kuemper returning to skating Sunday, Lindgren's run as the starter may not last much longer, but he's proving he can be trusted when called upon. |

Lindgren surrendered two goals on nine shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Calgary. - Lindgren entered the game late in the second period because Darcy Kuemper suffered an upper-body injury. The Capitals were only down 2-1 when Lindgren took the net, so he's been charged with the loss. That brings him down to 2-3-2 with a 3.51 GAA and .890 save percentage in eight games this season. If Kuemper isn't able to play Monday versus Edmonton, then Lindgren will probably get the start. |
None |
Nov. 26, 2022 |
Lindgren will guard the road goal Saturday versus the Devils, Mike Vogel of the Capitals' official site reports. - Lindgren will get the starting nod in the second half of a back-to-back after Darcy Kuemper shut out the Flames on Friday.

Lindgren stopped all 13 shots faced during Wednesday's 3-1 preseason win over the Flyers. - Lindgren was not tested significantly in his first preseason action with the Capitals, but he did have to make a couple of tough stops over the first two periods before ceding the crease to backup Zach Fucale.

Lindgren made 29 saves in Thursday's 6-2 win over Detroit. - Lindgren made his Blues debut Tuesday in relief of the injured Ville Husso (lower body), and he was right back in there with Husso still hurt and Jordan Binnington in COVID-19 protocols.
