Charlie Lindgren Starting Versus Kings Wednesday
9 months agoWashington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren is the starting netminder for Wednesday's road game versus the Los Angeles Kings. The Capitals are playing their first of a back-to-back on Wednesday, meaning it's exceedingly likely Darcy Kuemper will get the nod Thursday in Anaheim against the Ducks. Certainly, it's Lindgren getting the tougher task. He will take on a surging 13-3-3 Kings team that ranks first in overall offense and first in expected goals per 60 minutes at five-on-five, according to Natural Stat Trick. The 29-year-old has been excellent this season, turning in a 2.51 goals-against average and a .926 save percentage across six games, going 4-2-0 in the process.
