2025 Fantasy Outlook
While his ratios weren't great, coming in at a 2.73 GAA and a .894 save percentage, Lindgren redeemed some fantasy value with a 20-14-3 record over 39 appearances. The netminder earned a three-year contract extension with his play, and while the job security is a good thing, the Capitals also committed to Logan Thompson for five years. This leaves Lindgren in a tandem role, and while he may push for roughly half of the playing time, he's not quite as talented as his teammate. Lindgren should get enough starts to be worth rostering in most fantasy formats, at least as a low-end No. 2 or No. 3 goalie. He's played better before as well, but it'll be tough to ask much more of him after how good the Capitals were overall in 2024-25. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $9 million contract with the Capitals in March of 2025.
Slated to start Thursday
Lindgren is expected to be between the visiting pipes in Pittsburgh on Thursday, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.
ANALYSIS
Logan Thompson picked up the start Wednesday against the Blues putting Lindgren in line for Thursday's start. Lindgren is 1-2-1 with one shutout, a 3.47 GAA and an .880 save percentage this season. The Penguins are eighth in NHL scoring, averaging 3.50 goals per game.

2018
Lindgren had a "pinch-me, I'm dreaming" season in 2023-24 - he even got a few Vezina and Hart votes on the back of a 26-16-7 record, 2.67 GAA and .911 save percentage. He's the reason the Caps got to the postseason, but how many NHLers have their breakout season in their age-30 season? Fantasy managers want Lindgren to be real, and so do the Capitals, yet the team brought in Logan Thompson as a battery mate, and the two could end up in a straight platoon. Best-case scenario, Lindgren proves last year was real, and he starts 50 games. Worst case, he and Thompson end up in a split where the hot hand starts until he cools. Daily fantasy formats can absorb that and make it work. Weekly formats, not so much.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might play Thursday
Lindgren is poised to start versus the Penguins on the road Thursday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
ANALYSIS
With Logan Thompson getting the nod at home versus the Blues on Wednesday, all signs point to Lindgren taking the second game of the back-to-back versus Pittsburgh. In just four appearances this year, the 31-year-old Lindgren is 1-2-1 with a 3.47 GAA, .880 save percentage and one shutout. Lindgren is unlikely to see the same number of starts as he did last year, especially if he doesn't improve his form moving forward.
