• Capitals' Logan Thompson: Sets team record with win

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Thompson made 24 saves in an 8-1 win over the Blues on Saturday. Thompson is the first goalie to win his first seven starts with the Caps. He was excellent in the second period when Washington was outshot 11-4, but he could still improve his rebound control. Still, Thompson is well-rested every time he hits the blue paint, and that means he's an exceptional daily play while platooning with Charlie Lindgren.

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Thompson is set to start on the road against St. Louis on Saturday, according to Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post. Thompson has won all of his first six starts while posting a 2.81 GAA and a .903 save percentage. It's certainly helped that the Capitals have provided him with at least three goals worth of support in each of those outings, and Washington tallied a minimum of four markers in five of those six games. The Blues are 7-7-0 and rank 23rd offensively with 2.64 goals per game.

• Capitals' Logan Thompson: Stays perfect

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Thompson stopped 33 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Predators. The former Golden Knight is a perfect 6-0-0 to begin his first campaign with the Capitals, allowing three goals or less in five of his six starts with a 2.81 GAA and .903 save percentage. The strict rotation between Thompson and Charlie Lindgren is working out great for Washington, but it's the latter that's been between the pipes for all three of the team's losses so far.

  Thompson was the first goalie off the ice Wednesday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home versus Nashville. Thompson and Charlie Lindgren continue to alternate starts with the duo going every other game through the first 12 contests of the season. That trend should continue with an upcoming back-to-back, so look for Lindgren to feature against Pittsburgh at home Friday before Thompson is back between the pipes for Saturday's road game versus the Blues.

• Capitals' Logan Thompson: Stellar in win

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Thompson turned aside 34 of 36 shots in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Blue Jackets. Despite being staked to a 5-0 lead after the first period, Thompson had to endure an onslaught of 31 shots from the Blue Jackets in the final 40 minutes. The 27-year-old has a spotless 5-0-0 record in his first five games with the Capitals, but he has been locked into a starting rotation with Charlie Lindgren. Thompson is worth an add in deeper leagues and is one of the better spot starts in any format during Washigton's hot start to 2024-25.
