Drops fourth straight decision Lindgren made 24 saves in regulation and overtime and turned aside two of four shootout attempts in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Sabres.

Lindgren has given up three or more goals in four straight starts, going 0-2-2 over that stretch with a 3.16 GAA and an .880 save percentage. The Capitals appear willing to let him work through it while remaining in a timeshare with Logan Thompson, but the play of the two goalies are headed in opposite directions -- Thompson has won four straight starts while posting a 2.01 GAA and a .935 save percentage.

Third straight loss Lindgren allowed three goals on 33 shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to Minnesota.

Impact Lindgren allowed two goals at even strength and one shorthanded.

The 31-year-old is mired in his toughest stretch of the season, as he's 0-2-1 across his last three starts while allowing 10 goals in that span.

Tending twine against Carolina Lindgren will serve as the starting netminder for Friday's home game against the Hurricanes, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Lindgren and Logan Thompson have alternated starts for most of the season, and that trend will continue Friday. Lindgren snapped a four-game winning streak Monday against the Stars, as he allowed three goals on 24 shots (.875 save percentage). The 31-year-old has had mixed results this season, posting a 9-6-0 record, 2.69 GAA and .899 save percentage, and he'll have his hands full Friday since the Hurricanes rank fourth in the league with 3.61 goals per game to begin the 2024-25 campaign.

Win streak snapped Lindgren made 21 saves in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Stars.

Impact The 30-year-old netminder had won four straight starts coming into Monday, but after grabbing a 1-0 lead in the first period, the Caps' offense went cold and didn't give Lindgren much support. His recent success has largely been due to the team in front of him -- Lindgren is 6-2-0 over his last eight outings, but with a far less impressive 2.64 GAA and .900 save percentage.

The 30-year-old Lindgren is riding a four-game winning streak during which he is sporting a 2.73 GAA and .899 save percentage. At this point, with both backstops playing well, there is no reason to expect the team to deviate from its every-other approach.
