Thompson turned aside 31 of 34 shots faced during Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson has faced two of the league's best in Winnipeg and Florida in his last two outings and has surrendered eight goals on 63 shots during that span. The 27-year-old was a surprise start Tuesday given that Washington has employed a fairly strict rotation between Thompson and Charlie Lindgren to this point in the season, so fantasy managers should keep an eye on the workload to see if this was an aberration or an indication that Thompson may be on tap for a larger share of the workload moving forward.

Thompson will draw the home start Tuesday versus the Panthers, according to Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson conceded five goals in a game for just the second time this season in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to Winnipeg. Thompson has a 2-1-0 record, 2.67 GAA and .914 save percentage in three career appearances against the Panthers. Florida is coming off a 6-3 win over the Islanders on Sunday.

Thompson turned aside 25 of 30 shots faced during Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson had won his previous six starts, but Connor Hellebuyck outdueled him in Washington's first home game following a five-game road trip. The 27-year-old Thompson remains among the elite of fantasy netminders this season, so keep rolling him out regularly.

Thompson will guard the home net versus Winnipeg on Saturday, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson is having a sensational season, as he is 23-2-3 with a 2.05 GAA and a .927 save percentage. He is going after his seventh straight win and last lost in regulation Dec. 17 in Chicago. The Jets lead the NHL in goals, generating 3.58 per game.

Thompson stopped 32 of 33 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson has rattled off wins in six straight games and 11 straight starts -- his lone defeat in that span was an overtime loss in relief of Charlie Lindgren versus the Canadiens on Jan. 10. Thompson has allowed just five goals over his last six games, a span that includes his two shutouts so far this season. He's now 23-2-3 with a 2.05 GAA and a .927 save percentage over 28 appearances. The Capitals' next game is Thursday in Ottawa, but it's not yet clear if they'll double up starts for Thompson after doing the same for Lindgren to allow Thompson to start in his hometown Tuesday. In any case, Thompson has proven himself a quality option in fantasy whenever he's between the pipes.

Thompson agreed to terms on a six-year, $35.1 million contract with Washington on Monday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson is undefeated in regulation over his last 11 outings, going 10-0-1 with a 1.49 GAA, a .947 save percentage and two shutouts. The 27-year-old backstop has already reached the 20-win threshold for the third consecutive campaign and could be capable of topping the 30-win mark for the first time in his four-year NHL career. All of that comes despite the fact that Thompson has been splitting the workload with Charlie Lindgren all year.

Thompson will defend the road net versus the Flames on Tuesday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Charlie Lindgren will make his second straight start when Washington visits Vancouver on Saturday. Thompson, a Calgary native, will be well-rested ahead of his homecoming outing. He has stopped 123 of 127 shots during his five-game winning streak. Thompson has a 22-2-3 record with two shutouts, a 2.09 GAA and a .925 save percentage through 27 appearances this season. Calgary has posted only 2.65 goals per game in 2024-25.

Thompson stopped 30 of 32 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson picked up his fifth straight win despite the Oilers getting the better of the Capitals on the shot counter by a 32-14 margin. He also earned an assist on the game-winning goal, and the 27-year-old goalie was able to stay calm after Corey Perry scored the Oilers' second goal following a fan tossing nachos onto the ice. During Thompson's winning streak, he's allowed a total of five goals on 127 shots, and he's gone 10-0-1 over his last 11 outings. Overall, he's now at a 22-2-3 record with a 2.09 GAA and a .925 save percentage through 27 appearances. Thompson has started consecutive games even with Charlie Lindgren back from an upper-body injury, so it's unclear if the Capitals will go back to alternating starts or let Thompson get a bit of a run as the starter.

Thompson is set to start in Tuesday's road matchup against the Oilers, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson is at the top of his game in the new year, sporting a 6-0-1 record, .944 save percentage and 1.48 GAA through seven appearances in January. The 27-year-old has allowed just two goals while posting two shutouts during his current four-game winning streak. Thompson will face an Oilers team that sits seventh in the NHL with 3.28 goals per game, but they'll be without Connor McDavid, who was suspended for three games Monday.

Thompson made 18 saves on 19 shots during the Capitals' 4-1 win over the Penguins on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson was less than nine minutes away from logging his third consecutive shutout, but he wasn't able to stop Bryan Rust's shot on a 2-on-1 midway through the third period. Still, Thompson has allowed just two goals over his last four outings, and he stands at 6-0-1 with a .944 save percentage and 1.48 GAA through seven appearances in January.
