Charlie Lindgren Starting Versus Kings Wednesday
12 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.
