In their 12th game of the season, the Capitals will continue their even goalie rotation and turn to Thompson between the pipes for his sixth start. The 27-year-old Thompson has yet to lose this season, securing a 5-0-0 record despite a pedestrian 2.97 GAA and .894 SV%. The Capitals have been a surprising team to start the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 4.2 goals per game, top five in the NHL. Thompson and the Capitals enter the action on Wednesday as -118 home favorites against a Nashville Predators club shut out 3-0 by the Los Angeles Kings in their previous outing.
