Charlie Lindgren - First goalie off Friday Lindgren was the first goalie to leave the ice Friday, Mark Masters of TSN reports, indicating he'll be in goal on the road versus Toronto.
Impact Lindgren continues to split the workload with Logan Thompson, having featured in five of the Caps' previous 10 outings. In those appearances, the 30-year-old Lindgren went 4-1-0 with a 3.22 GAA and .880 save percentage. As long as the timeshare continues to work for Washington, looks for the duo to keep splitting the starts, which points to Thompson getting the nod on the road versus Montreal on Saturday.

Alex Ovechkin - Skating on his own Ovechkin (fibula) is skating on his own in a non-contact jersey, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports Wednesday.
Impact This doesn't change Ovechkin's return timeline, but it's encouraging to see him take his first strides in his recovery. The 39-year-old winger is still likely to be out until the second half of December at the earliest. He'll continue to log individual skating sessions until he is cleared to join the full team in practice.

Martin Fehervary - Generates assist Tuesday Fehervary logged an assist, three shots on goal and four blocked shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Impact Fehervary has helpers in back-to-back contests after going six games without a point. The 25-year-old plays in a top-four role, but he won't off the steadiest offense, instead working as a shutdown blueliner. This season, he's produced six helpers, 21 shots on net, 53 hits and 57 blocked shots over 25 appearances, putting him on a pace that could lead to his first 20-point campaign.

Nic Dowd - Puts away goal in loss Dowd scored a goal on two shots, added 10 PIM, logged two hits and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Impact Dowd's second-period tally was enough to get the game to overtime. He's scored three times over the last eight contests, but he went six games without a point before that stretch. The 34-year-old center is at seven goals, two helpers, 35 shots on net, 52 hits, 32 PIM and 23 blocked shots across 25 appearances in a fourth-line role this season.

Logan Thompson - Kept team in low-scoring game Thompson made 29 saves in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Sharks on Tuesday
Impact The Caps were strong in the first and then let their game slide in the second and third frames, leaving Thompson to fend off the better-than-expected Sharks. After the Caps tied the game in the second, the Sharks outshot them 18-6 for the remainder of the game, including 13-4 in the third alone. Thompson, who is 10-1-2 with a 2.52 GAA and .913 save percentage, has been the strong side of a platoon with Charlie Lindgren (7-5-0, 2.95 GAA and .893 save percentage) and a revelation this season. Expect the two men to continue to split starts going forward, though -- the team will need both men sharp down the stretch to maintain its strong play.
