Charlie Lindgren Gets the Nod Sunday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren will start in Sunday's matchup with the New York Rangers, Mike Vogel of the Capitals' official site reports. He gets an opportunity to make his 20th start of the season, with the Capitals on a back-to-back for the first time since mid-March. In his most recent outing, Lindgren picked up an impressive 2-1 win over Buffalo. However, his season overall hasn't been great. The 32-year-old holds a 9-7-3 record, a 3.29 goals-against average, a .886 save percentage, and one shutout. On Sunday, Lindgren will aim to make it three wins in three games against the Rangers this season.

Charlie Lindgren Activated From Injured Reserve Monday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (lower body) was activated from Injured Reserve on Monday. The veteran netminder missed four games before the Olympic break due to a lower-body injury. Serving as Logan Thompson's backup, Lindgren has gone 8-6-3 in 17 starts this season, posting a 3.37 goals-against average, a .884 save percentage, and one shutout. Washington will resume the season on Wednesday night against the Philadelphia Flyers. The team also has a back-to-back on Friday and Saturday, so Lindgren is likely to start at least once this week.

Charlie Lindgren Practices Fully Tuesday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (lower body) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports. He looks set to return to action after the Olympic break. Lindgren missed a few contests before the break due to a lower-body injury, landing on Injured Reserve. The Capitals will resume the season on Feb. 25 against the Philadelphia Flyers. Lindgren's 2025-26 campaign hasn't gone too well. On average, he has allowed over three goals per game (3.37) with a .884 save percentage. The 32-year-old has an 8-6-3 record and one shutout. After playing Philadelphia, the Capitals have a back-to-back scheduled, meaning we should see both Lindgren and Logan Thompson in action next week.

Charlie Lindgren Hurt Versus Red Wings

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (lower body) was injured during Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Detroit Red Wings, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports. Lindgren was hurt late in overtime but remained in the net for the shootout. He eventually needed assistance from his teammates to leave the ice. Lindgren didn't stop any shots in the shootout, but he had 18 saves in the game and improved to 8-6-3. The Capitals had inexperienced Clay Stevenson serving as the backup after losing Logan Thompson (upper body) for the game. While Thompson is considered day-to-day, it's unclear whether he will be able to return this week, putting the team in a tough spot if Lindgren also has to miss time.

Charlie Lindgren Activated From Injured Reserve

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (upper body) was activated from Injured Reserve on Saturday and will back up Logan Thompson against the Winnipeg Jets. Lindgren has been unavailable for three games due to an upper-body injury. The 31-year-old has been impressive in his last few outings, winning four of five starts. The good run of form has helped Lindgren improve his record for the season to 5-3-1. He has produced a 2.90 goals-against average with a .893 save percentage and one shutout. With Lindgren available to return to the lineup, Washington returned Garin Bjorklund to the minors on Saturday.

Charlie Lindgren May Miss Thursday's Game

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (personal) may not be in the lineup on Thursday against the Carolina Hurricanes. The 31-year-old is dealing with a personal matter and might be forced to sit out Game 5 of the second-round series. The Capitals have brought Clay Stevenson up from the minors to potentially serve as the backup to Logan Thompson on Thursday night. While Thompson and Lindgren shared the starts fairly evenly during the regular season, Thompson has been the clear No. 1 in the playoffs. Despite allowing eight goals over the last two games against Carolina, Thompson has performed well in the postseason and is not at risk of losing his starting spot.

Charlie Lindgren Returns To Practice Friday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (personal) took part in Friday's optional practice. He returned to the team after missing Thursday's Game 2 against the Carolina Hurricanes to deal with a personal matter. Mitchell Gibson served as Logan Thompson's backup in the contest. Lindgren is poised to take over the duties on Saturday night. With Thompson in top form, Lindgren has seen his ice time in the postseason limited to just 6:37. Nonetheless, he remains a reliable option for Washington, having finished the regular season with a 20-14-3 record.

Charlie Lindgren Gets The Nod Against Kings Thursday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren will man the crease in Thursday's matchup against the Los Angeles Kings. He takes over from Logan Thompson, who beat the Anaheim Ducks 7-3 on Tuesday. The result against the Ducks gave Washington a fifth consecutive victory. Lindgren is personally on a 4-1-0 run. He has taken his record for the season to 15-10-3, allowing 2.64 goals with a .899 save percentage and one shutout. On Thursday, Lindgren faces a tough challenge against his former teammate Darcy Kuemper and a highly successful home team. The Kings have won 21 of their 28 home games this season, with Kuemper personally boasting a 12-1-2 record at the Crypto.com Arena.

Charlie Lindgren Dressing As Backup Saturday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (upper body) will dress as the backup on Saturday against Pittsburgh. He has missed three games due to an upper-body injury but is available for selection again. However, the team has decided to keep riding Logan Thompson, who has turned red-hot during Lindgren's absence. He has posted back-to-back shutouts while allowing only one goal during a three-game winning streak. Both goalies have played well for the Capitals this season, which hasn't been the case in Pittsburgh, making Washington a clear favorite for Saturday's contest.

Charlie Lindgren Exits Early On Friday

According to the team, Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (upper body) exited Friday's game early. The netminder stopped all nine shots he faced and left in the second frame. He was replaced by Logan Thompson, who allowed three goals on 21 shots in their defeat. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring Lindgren's status before their game against the Nashville Predators on Saturday evening. If Lindgren misses an extended period, then Thompson will see the vast majority of the starts in the crease. Before Friday, Lindgren had allowed at least three goals in each of his previous four starts, while Thompson allowed more than three goals just once over his previous five outings. Thompson will likely get the starting nod on Saturday evening,

Charlie Lindgren Sharp On Friday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren stopped 24 of the 25 shots he faced during his victory over the Washington Capitals. The Capitals got out to three-goal lead by the end of the second frame. Carolina's lone tally came in the back-half of the third period off a Seth Jarvis wrist shot. Over his past four outings, Lindgren has allowed just one goal or fewer in three of them. During this span, he has carried a stellar 1.50 GAA and a .942% SV with a 3-1 record. Prior to this impressive stretch, he posted a 4.04 GAA in his previous three outings. Overall, the 31-year-old sits with a solid 10-6 record and a .903% SV and a 2.58 GAA. Fantasy managers should continue to expect him and Logan Thompson to share the crease at an almost 50/50 split.

Charlie Lindgren Earns Victory On Friday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren stopped 20 of the 21 shots he faced en route to defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs. Lindgren's lone blemish came in the second frame when John Tavares beat him on his backhand. This was also a nice bounce-back showing for the 30-year-old, as he has allowed nine goals over his past two starts combined. This was only the second time this season that Lindgren allowed just one goal or fewer. Since the start of November, Lindgren has held a .900% SV with a modest 2.91 GAA. Throughout the season, Lindgren and Logan Thompson have shared the Washington crease. However, given that Thompson boasts a 10-1 record, fantasy managers should continue to expect him to see the slight majority of starts.

Charlie Lindgren Blanks Bruins Monday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren turned in a crucial outing on Monday, turning aside all 16 shots he faced en route to a 2-0 shutout win over the Boston Bruins. With the victory, the Capitals held onto the second and final Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference. They can clinch a postseason berth with a win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday. Monday's start was Lindgren's fifth in a row and his 17th over the team's last 18 games. With the outing, he improved to a 2.71 goals-against average and a .910 save percentage along with an NHL-best six shutouts across 49 appearances (47 starts). The Flyers, Red Wings, and Penguins all have an opportunity to grab the final playoff spot in the east, as well.

Charlie Lindgren Making Fifth Straight Start Monday

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren is making his fifth straight start on Monday for a crucial tilt with the Boston Bruins. Not only is it Lindgren's fifth consecutive start but also his 17th over the team's last 18 games as the team continues to go with the hot hand with Lindgren out-playing veteran Darcy Kuemper this season. The 30-year-old has posted a 2.77 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage across 48 outings (46 starts) on the season, going 23-16-7 in that time. For comparison, Kuemper has turned in a 3.31 GAA and an .890 save percentage across 33 appearances (30 starts), going 13-14-3 on the campaign. The Capitals currently occupy the final Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference but are tied with the Flyers and Red Wings with 87 points and are just one point ahead of the Penguins despite a minus-40 goal differential.

Charlie Lindgren Shuts Out Jets

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren kept the Jets grounded on Sunday, recording a 27-save shutout in a 3-0 win. It's his fifth shutout of the season, which puts Lindgren tied for the third spot in the league behind Arizona's Connor Ingram and Pittsburgh's Tristan Jarry. Lindgren has given a major boost to the Capitals, who have come back from the dead to re-enter the playoff race in the Eastern Conference. The 30-year-old is on an 8-3-0 run this month, allowing only 2.22 goals with a .923 save percentage.

Charlie Lindgren Makes Second Consecutive Start

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren will get the nod for a second consecutive game on Thursday against Tampa Bay. He's been splitting starts with Darcy Kuemper lately, but Lindgren will remain between the pipes on Thursday after impressing in the previous contest. Washington beat New Jersey 6-2 on Tuesday, with Lindgren saving 37 of 39 shots for a .949 save percentage. It's the second-most saves he's had in a game this season. Lindgren holds an 11-8-4 record for the season and has allowed 2.62 goals with a .915 save percentage and three shutouts.

Charlie Lindgren To Start Tuesday Versus Avs

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren will get the starting nod for Tuesday's home game versus the Colorado Avalanche. The 30-year-old has been seeing more playing time than Darcy Kuemper between the pipes of late, starting four of his team's last six games while he posted a shutout over the Boston Bruins his last time out on Saturday. He now owns a rock-solid 2.58 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage across 23 games on the season, going 10-7-4 in the process. Of course, his assignment on Tuesday is a difficult one as the Avalanche rank second in the NHL with 3.66 goals per game on the season.

Charlie Lindgren Could Return Sunday

Washington Capitals goalie Charlie Lindgren (upper body) skated on Friday and is eligible to come off IR as early as Sunday against the Los Angeles Kings. Lindgren has missed three games with a lower-body injury, but is making progress and is almost ready to return. The Caps have three days off after Sunday's game, however, so they could opt to give Lindgren some extra time off. When he returns, he should go back to splitting starts with Darcy Kuemper, a role in which he has performed admirably, going 7-3-3 with a 2.27 GAA, .928 SV%, and 11.2 GSAA. If he is on the waiver wire and goalies are sparse, he could make for a solid addition.

Charlie Lindgren Out For "Foreseeable Future"

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren suffered an upper-body injury early against the Islanders on Friday and has been ruled out for the "foreseeable future" by head coach Spencer Carbery. He saved all three shots he faced before making an exit with less than seven minutes played in the contest. Darcy Kuemper ended up taking a heavy beating as Lindgren's replacement, as Washington was completely outplayed and suffered a 5-1 defeat. Lindgren has performed superbly for the Capitals this season, and his injury is a major blow for the team. In 14 starts, Lindgren has produced a 7-3-3 record with a 2.27 goals-against average and a .928 save percentage.

Charlie Lindgren Impresses With Win Over Kings

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren limited the NHL's hottest offense to just one goal as his crew skated away with a 2-1 victory against the L.A. Kings on Wednesday. Arthur Kaliyev beat Lindgren in the middle of the first frame, but otherwise, it was a perfect performance from the Capitals backup. The Kings had averaged over four goals per game before running into Lindgren, who improved to 5-2-0 for the year. He's been in outstanding form with a 2.30 goals-against average and a .934 save percentage, and the workload has lately been shared in the crease between him and regular starter Darcy Kuemper.
