"So far this season, Thompson has a 9-6-1 record with a 2.16 goals against average and a .912 save percentage. Among goalies who have suited up in 10 games this season, Thompson leads the league at five-on-five in save percentage (.934) and goals against average (1.55). His 12.6 goals saved above expected at all strengths is third-best in the league, trailing only Jeremy Swayman (17.5) and Spencer Knight (14.9)."
"Thompson's strong start comes as he looks to push his way onto Team Canada's Olympic roster and prove his detractors wrong that he could replicate his success from last season. Team Canada has also repeatedly passed Thompson over, both for last season's 4 Nations Face-Off tournament and for its National Teams Olympic Orientation Camp. "I always feel like I'm a player that I don't think a lot of people respect around the league," Thompson said earlier in the year."
