Thompson turned aside 19 of 21 shots faced during during Saturday's 4-2 hom win over the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson wasn't very busy against the struggling Sabres, but he did have to dig in following an early goal by Buffalo and performed well enough to improve to a 12-1-2 record in 15 starts. Washington seems content to stick with the even workload between the 27-year-old and Charlie Lindgren which limits the fantasy upside of both even if they are automatic starts whenever they get the call.

Thompson will be between the home pipes versus Buffalo on Saturday, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson is having the best season of his NHL career. The 27-year-old netminder is 11-1-2 with a 2.48 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 14 appearances this season. He will face the Sabres, who are averaging 2.97 goals per game in 2024-25.

Thompson stopped 22 of 24 shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson has gone four straight starts without losing in regulation, going 3-0-1 with a 2.23 GAA and a .910 save percentage in that span. The 27-year-old has been playing well of late, but the Capitals have been splitting starts, so it wouldn't be surprising if Charlie Lindgren gets the nod for Thursday's road game against Columbus. However, with four days of rest between games, Thompson could very well make back-to-back starts for the first time since Nov. 9 and Nov. 13.

Thompson will be between the visiting pipes against Montreal on Saturday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson has been stellar in the Washington cage this season, posting a 10-1-2 record with a 2.52 GAA and a .913 save percentage. Montreal ranks 21st in the league with 2.81 goals per game.

Thompson made 29 saves in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Sharks on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The Caps were strong in the first and then let their game slide in the second and third frames, leaving Thompson to fend off the better-than-expected Sharks. After the Caps tied the game in the second, the Sharks outshot them 18-6 for the remainder of the game, including 13-4 in the third alone. Thompson, who is 10-1-2 with a 2.52 GAA and a .913 save percentage, has been the strong side of a platoon with Charlie Lindgren (7-5-0, 2.95 GAA and .893 save percentage) and a revelation this season. Expect the two men to continue to split starts going forward, though -- the team will need both men sharp down the stretch to maintain its strong play.

Thompson was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports, indicating he'll be between the home pipes versus San Jose.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson and Charlie Lindgren continue their every other rotation, which means Lindgren will likely take Friday's clash with Toronto before Thompson is back in goal against Montreal on Saturday. For his part, the 27-year-old Thompson is 3-1-1 with a 2.57 GAA in his last five outings and should continue to split the workload moving forward.

Thompson turned aside 20 of 24 shots faced during Friday's 5-4 overtime win at home against the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson has a sterling 10-1-1 record in 12 starts splitting the workload with Charlie Lindgren. The 27-year-old has been the more steady of the Capitals netminder duo and it would not be shocking if Thompson carves out a larger share of the starts moving forward, but fantasy managers will have to be patient while Washington sorts out the goaltending workload. Charlie Lindgren is expected to get the call Saturday against the Devils.

Thompson will be between the home pipes versus the Islanders on Friday, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson has been outstanding this season as the Capitals have been alternating Thompson and Charlie Lindgren. Thompson is 9-1-1 with a 2-44 GAA and a .917 save percentage in 11 appearances this season. He will face the Islanders, who are 30th in NHL scoring, averaging 2.48 goals per game.

Thompson turned aside 20 of 21 shots faced during Monday's 4-1 road win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson has been paying outstanding dividends for the Capitals since being acquired from the Golden Knights in an offseason trade and has now surrendered two or fewer goals in six of his last seven appearances. Charlie Lindgren is likely to get the nod Wednesday against Tampa Bay given that the Capitals have been evenly splitting the workload to this point.

Thompson will guard the road goal Monday versus the Panthers, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson is coming off a 25-save effort in Thursday's 2-1 loss to Colorado. He has earned a record of 8-1-1 with a 2.58 GAA and a .914 save percentage through 10 appearances this season. Florida has lost three straight games and is tied for sixth in the league with 3.48 goals per game.
