The Washington Capitals have solidified their goaltending situation by securing Charlie Lindgren with a three-year, $9 million extension, complementing the recent six-year, $35.1 million contract for Logan Thompson. GM Chris Patrick emphasized Lindgren's professionalism and consistency since joining the Capitals in 2022. With both goalies locked in for the next three seasons, the team anticipates a competitive environment that fosters growth and stability at a crucial position. As the Capitals lead the Eastern Conference, Patrick is now focusing on extending defenseman Jakob Chychrun before the trade deadline.
