Thompson has undoubtedly been the Capitals' best goalie, and despite being in a timeshare with Charlie Lindgren most of the season, he will start for the fourth straight game on Tuesday. The 27-year-old Thompson was tremendous in his most recent outing, saving 32 of 33 shots (.970 SV%) in a 4-1 win over the Nashville Predators. He has an impressive 2.32 GAA and .919 SV% in 23 games this season (18-2-3). The Capitals enter Tuesday's contest as significant -255 home favorites against an Anaheim Ducks squad coming off an impressive 3-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes.
