Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Shines in win
Lindgren stopped 30 of 31 shots in Monday's 2-1 win over the Kings.
Lindgren held on down the stretch to grab his first win since Oct. 12, his first start of the season. With his trip back to the win column, the 31-year-old netminder has a 2-3-1 record with a 3.16 GAA and an .893 save percentage across six games this season. He remains firmly behind starting goalie Logan Thompson on Washington's depth chart, but more performances like Monday's could bring the share of games closer to an even split. For now, Lindgren is best deployed as a spot start in fantasy. If Thompson gets the nod in the Capitals' home game versus Edmonton on Wednesday, then there is a chance the team will turn to Lindgren one night later for Thursday's road matchup against the Canadiens.
