Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Facing Rangers
Lindgren was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post, and is expected to be between the home pipes Friday for Game 3 versus the Rangers.
Lindgren allowed four goals in each of his two playoff games versus the Rangers. The two losses snapped a three-game winning streak Lindgren had at the end of the regular season -- giving up only three goals on 78 shots. The Rangers have a 2-0 series lead, ahead of Friday's tilt.

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Stumbles in Game 2
Lindgren made 24 saves Tuesday in a 4-3 loss to the Rangers during Game 2 of the Capitals' first-round series.
New York scored twice with the man advantage and once on a K'Andre Miller shorthanded tally, but Lindgren did blank the Rangers in the third period to at least give his club an opportunity for a comeback. The 30-year-old netminder has given up eight goals on 58 shots to begin Washington's postseason run, and while the poor results so far may not be completely Lindgren's fault, coach Spencer Carbury may consider turning to Darcy Kuemper between the pipes when the series shifts back to D.C. for Game 3 on Friday.

Lindgren stopped 27 of 31 shots in a 4-1 loss in Game 1. The 30-year-old is firmly established as the Capitals' No. 1 goalie, but he faces an uphill battle versus the Presidents' Trophy winners. Lindgren has allowed eight goals across four appearances versus the Rangers in 2023-24.

It might be a tough postseason for Lindgren and the bottom-seeded Caps. They were outshot 31 to 21 on Sunday.

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Starting again Tuesday
Lindgren will be between the pipes on the road against the Flyers on Tuesday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.
Lindgren gets the starting nod on the second game of the Caps' season-ending back-to-back after stopping all 16 shots he faced versus Boston on Monday. Perhaps if the Minnesota native had faced a heavier workload, then the club would have decided to roll with Darcy Kuemper. In his last five outings, the 30-year-old Lindgren is 3-1-1 with a 1.81 GAA and a .931 save percentage. He figures to remain Washington's preferred choice between the pipes should the Capitals make the playoffs.

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Leaves ice first Thursday
Lindgren was the first goalie off the ice Thursday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports, indicating he'll be between the road pipes versus Buffalo.
Lindgren has appeared in 22 of the Caps' last 25 outings while posting a 12-7-3 record and 2.91 GAA. The workload isn't going to get any lighter for the backstop as long as the team remains in the mix for a wild-card spot. On the year, Lindgren has already set new personal bests in games played (46), wins (22) and shutouts (five).

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Busy in Tuesday's win
Lindgren stopped 42 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Red Wings.
Patrick Kane spoiled his shutout bid with just two seconds left in the third period, but it was still a huge performance from Lindgren in a clutch spot -- the win moved the Capitals into the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, one point ahead of both the Wings and the Penguins and two ahead of the Flyers. The 30-year-old netminder has had a bumpy beginning to April, allowing 13 goals on 118 shots (.890 save percentage) while going 1-2-1 in four starts, but Washington will give him every chance to rediscover the form that saw him deliver a 2.13 GAA and .932 save percentage over 14 outings in November and December.

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Falls in overtime
Lindgren allowed three goals on 21 shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators.
In a low-shot contest, Lindgren allowed the only shot sent his way in overtime to end the game in Ottawa's favor. After an exceptional month of March in which he had nine wins and only three losses, Lindgren has lost five straight starts. The Capitals still have a strong opportunity for the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, and Lindgren's slump hasn't cost him the starting job over Darcy Kuemper so far, though it remains to be seen which goalie gets the nod for a pivotal game against the Red Wings on Tuesday.

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Falls to Pittsburgh
Lindgren surrendered three goals on 23 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Penguins.
The Penguins jumped out to a fast start against Lindgren, scoring twice in the first period and sticking the 30-year-old netminder with the eventual defeat. Lindgren's been struggling of late -- he's dropped his last four starts, posting an .878 save percentage in that span. He falls to 21-15-6 with a .908 save percentage and 2.81 GAA this season. Darcy Kuemper figures to get the start Friday against Carolina in the second leg of a back-to-back, which would line up Lindgren for a home matchup Sunday against the Senators.

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Facing Penguins
Lindgren will defend the home crease versus Pittsburgh on Thursday, according to Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.
Lindgren was shaky Tuesday as he gave up six goals on 31 shots before being pulled in the third period in a 6-2 loss to Buffalo. Lindgren is 21-14-6 with a 2.81 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 2023-24. The Penguins are averaging 32.8 shots on goal, sixth in the NHL, so Lindgren will likely be busy Thursday.

Capitals' Charlie Lindgren: Gets hook Tuesday
Lindgren stopped 25 of 31 shots before being replaced by Darcy Kuemper early in the third period of Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Sabres. Lindgren was credited with the loss.
The Capitals were only down 3-2 heading into the third, but three goals in under six minutes to begin the final frame got Lindgren the hook. It's the third time in his last seven outings the 30-year-old netminder has given up at least five goals, a stretch in which he's gone 3-3-1 with a 3.98 GAA and .879 save percentage. Washington is clinging to the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference at the moment -- the Caps are tied with Detroit at 82 points but have a game in hand -- and coach Spencer Carbery seems willing to ride with Lindgren as his No. 1 goalie right to the end, despite the netminder's recent form.
