• Capitals' Logan Thompson: Saddled with loss

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Thompson turned aside 25 of 27 shots faced during Thursday's 2-1 home loss to the Avalanche. Thompson put together another solid performance, but the Capitals struggled to light the lamp in their first game since losing captain Alex Ovechkin (calf) to long-term injury. The 27-year-old Thompson has put together a strong start to his first season with Washington, but he will need to get back in the win column to separate himself from Charlie Lindgren and secure the top spot on the Capitals' depth chart.

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Thompson will start Thursday's home game against the Avalanche, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports. Thompson was the first goalie off during Thursday's morning skate, but he was also late getting onto the ice and appeared to be in some discomfort. He appeared to tweak something during Sunday's win over the Golden Knights, but he specified after Thursday's morning skate that he's "all good" and will be between the pipes against the Avalanche. Thompson has been effective over the first month and a half of the season, posting an 8-0-1 record, 2.63 GAA and .913 save percentage over nine appearances.

  Thompson stopped 40 of 42 shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights. Thompson won both of his starts against his former team this year. He faced a lot of pressure in his return to Vegas but stood tall and rode an Alex Ovechkin hat trick to the win. Thompson has been right at home with the Capitals, going 8-0-1 with a 2.63 GAA and a .913 save percentage over nine starts. The Capitals wrap up their current road trip in Utah on Monday, which will likely be a Charlie Lindgren start.
