Washington Capitals goaltender Logan Thompson will miss several games due to an upper-body injury sustained during a recent match against Carolina. Coach Spencer Carbery confirmed that Thompson will not be day-to-day and noted that Charlie Lindgren will step up as the starting goalie. Thompson has had an impressive season so far with a 31-6-6 record. Lindgren, who previously led the Capitals to the playoffs, will be expected to perform well in Thompson's absence as the team faces upcoming matchups against Chicago and the New York Islanders.
"It’s a good chance for him to string some starts together and play well."
"Charlie Lindgren is expected to shoulder the load in the absence of Thompson."
