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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

The 30-year-old is on an 8-3-0 run this month, allowing only 2.22 goals with a .923 save percentage.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren is the starting netminder for Wednesday's road game versus the Los Angeles Kings. The Capitals are playing their first of a back-to-back on Wednesday, meaning it's exceedingly likely Darcy Kuemper will get the nod Thursday in Anaheim against the Ducks. Certainly, it's Lindgren getting the tougher task. He will take on a surging 13-3-3 Kings team that ranks first in overall offense and first in expected goals per 60 minutes at five-on-five, according to Natural Stat Trick. The 29-year-old has been excellent this season, turning in a 2.51 goals-against average and a .926 save percentage across six games, going 4-2-0 in the process.

In four starts this season, Lindgren has posted an impressive 3-0-1 record with a 1.76 goals-against average and a .947 save percentage. He's a strong option for fantasy managers on Saturday against a team that is scoring only 2.71 goals per game and has won just four of 17 outings in 2023-24.

Charlie Lindgren Starts For Washington On Saturday

He was also used on opening night versus Pittsburgh when Capitals No. 1 Darcy Kuemper missed the game for personal reasons. Lindgren hasn't featured at all since then, as he's hit some early-season health issues. However, he's available now, and this should be a favorable matchup on paper for Lindgren. Columbus has lost four of its last five games and owns a poor 2.70 goals-for average for the season. This is also a clash the Capitals tend to dominate, with the Blue Jackets having won only one of the last five head-to-head meetings.
Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren (back) has been activated from Injured Reserve and is expected to back up Darcy Kuemper in Sunday's contest against San Jose. Lindgren has made one appearance this season, allowing four goals on 35 shots in a 4-0 loss to Pittsburgh on Oct. 13. The team has a very light schedule next week with only two games, so the 29-year-old might have to wait a bit to see action again. Kuemper is the undisputed No. 1 in D.C., and he's gone 2-2-1 so far this season, giving up 3.29 goals with a .890 save percentage.

A veteran of 61 career NHL games, Lindgren owns a 2.91 GAA and .906 Sv% with the Canadiens, Blues, and Capitals.
Charlie Lindgren In Washington Goal Against Columbus
Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren will make his first start since Jan. 19 on Tuesday against Columbus.

He has posted a 2.66 goals-against average and a .907 save percentage. The Blue Jackets have some elite offensive talent on the roster, but the Capitals have dominated the matchup through the years, even winning seven of their last nine trips to Ohio, and Lindgren seems to be in a great spot to finally get his first win of 2023.

He's been in superb form with a 1.22 goals-against average and a .958 save percentage, allowing more than one goal just once. Lindgren has been incredible for the team, but Jordan Binnington has cleared COVID-19 protocols and is set to return to the crease soon, which will be a big blow to Lindgren's fantasy value.
