Thompson will start Friday's road game against Chicago, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

Thompson enters Friday's matchup in the midst of a cold spell in which he's gone 0-3-1 with a 3.26 GAA and .898 save percentage over his last four starts. That stretch includes a home shootout loss to the Blackhawks on Jan. 3, but he was relatively effective during that matchup, turning aside 31 of 33 shots (.939 save percentage).
