Logan Thompson turned aside 20 of 21 shots faced during Monday's 4-1 road win over the Panthers.Thompson has been paying outstanding dividends for the Washington Capitals since being acquired from the Golden Knights in an offseason trade and has now surrendered two or fewer goals in six of his last seven appearances. Charlie Lindgren is likely to get the nod Wednesday against Tampa Bay given that the Capitals have been evenly splitting the workload to this point.

Capitals' Logan Thompson: Saddled with loss
Logan 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 Washington Capitals struggled to light the lamp in their first game since losing captain Alex Ovechkin (calf) to long-term injury.

Capitals' Logan Thompson: Slated to start Wednesday
Logan Thompson is set to start in Wednesday's home game against Toronto, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.Thompson and Charlie Lindgren have been in a strict rotation, but for the first time this season, that pattern will be broken with Thompson slated to start for the second consecutive game. Thompson has a 7-0-0 record, 2.55 GAA and .910 save percentage through seven appearances in 2024-25, and he's coming off an 8-1 win over St. Louis on Saturday in which he turned aside 24 of 25 shots. Lindgren hasn't been as impressive, posting a 3-4-0 record, 2.76 GAA and .897 save percentage in seven outings, so there is an opportunity here for Thompson to establish himself as the Washington Capitals' true No. 1 netminder. Toronto will be a solid test given the Maple Leafs' respectable 9-6-2 record. However, Toronto has been a mixed bag offensively -- the squad ranks 18th with 2.94 goals per game -- and it's not clear if Auston Matthews (upper body) will be ready to return for the Maple Leafs.

Capitals' Logan Thompson: Sets team record with win
Logan 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.
