Charlie Lindgren News

Jordan Binnington was added to the NHL's COVID-19 protocol list, so Lindgren will join the Blues in Tampa and is expected to serve as Ville Husso's backup.

Lindgren allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Canadiens win over the Hurricanes on February 29th. Lindgren is 2-3-0 with a 3.37 GAA and .884 sV% in his first five NHL starts this season and will get another start tonight in Florida. Tonight he faces a Panthers team on a four-game losing streak and 1-4-2 while scoring just 2.14 goals per game in their last seven games.

Lindgren allowed four goals on 28 shots in the Canadiens loss to the Blackhawks on January 15th. With Carey Price out with the flu, Lindgren will make his fourth start of the season in New Jersey. He is 0-3-0 with a 3.40 GAA and .892 SV% in his first three starts. He catches a break with the Devils without Nico Hischier and Sami Vatanen.

Lindgren allowed four goals on 30 shots in the Canadiens loss in Detroit on January 7th. Since coming up from the AHL, Lindgren has lost both of his starts while allowing a combined six goals on 65 shots (.908 SV%). Tonight he'll take on a Blackhawks team that played last night but they've won five of their last six road games while averaging 4.17 goals for per game.

Lindgren allowed two goals on 35 shots in the Canadiens loss in Carolina on New Year's Eve. It was a solid season debut for the 26-year-old. He faced the Red Wings in 2017, stopping 25 of 27 shots in a 3-2 win. Montreal has somehow lost their first two games vs. Detroit this season, so they'll lean on Lindgren tonight on the tail-end of a back-to-back to try and make that 1-2.

Carey Price has started seven straight games but has given up 11 goals in his last two games, so Lindgren will make his season debut in Carolina. The 26-year-old netminder was 7-6-2 with a 2.67 GAA and .893 SV% in 16 AHL games before being called up. He has previously suited up in 18 NHL games, going 8-8-2 with a 2.89 GAA and .912 SV%.

Carey Price has started seven straight games but has given up 11 goals in his last two games, so Lindgren will make his season debut in Carolina.

The Canadiens do not have a back-to-back before the Christmas break, so Cayden Primeau will go to Laval to get some playing time and Lindgren comes up to backup Carey Price. Lindgren has gone 7-6-2 with a 2.67 GAA and .893 SV% in 16 AHL games.

With Antti Niemi struggling mightily as of late, Lindgren comes up as a third goalie and could give Carey Price some rest down the stretch. The 25-year-old has gone 11-14-1 with a 2.94 GAA and 884 SV% in the AHL this season and is 7-8-2 with a 2.78 GAA and .914 SV% in 17 career NHL appearances.

Lindgren has gone 2-1-0 with a 2.39 GAA and .875 SV% in three games with the Rockets so far this season. With Carey Price out with the flu, Lindgren is expected to backup Antti Niemi vs. the Penguins.

Lindgren has gone 4-8-2 with a 3.03 GAA and .908 SV% in 14 games with the Canadiens and returns to Laval where he is 8-14-1 with a 3.18 GAA and .891 SV%. Lindgren’s return to the AHL suggests that Carey Price (concussion) will at least dress as Antti Niemi’s backup on Monday.

Lindgren allowed five goals on 32 shots in the Canadiens loss in Florida last Thursday. Lindgren struggled last week, allowing a combined 11 goals on 65 shots (.831 SV%). Tonight he will face a Blue Jackets team that is riding a four-game winning streak—averaging 4.00 goals for per game in that span.

Lindgren will get the nod again tonight despite allowing six goals on 33 shots in Tuesday’s 6-4 loss to the Devils. In his three starts since being recalled in late February, Lindgren’s recorded a 1-1-1 record and a .911 SV%. He draws another tough matchup tonight against the Panthers.

Lindgren allowed three goals on 35 shots in the Canadiens win over the Islanders on Saturday. Lindgren has been great since being recalled from Laval (AHL), stopping 55 of 58 shots (.948 SV%). Lindgren has gone 2-1-0 with a 1.67 GAA and .950 SV% in three games on the road this season.

Lindgren stopped all 33 shots that he faced in the Canadiens shootout loss to the Flyers on Monday. It was a tough loss for Lindgren, who was excellent in his first NHL start since late-November. He has played very well in nine NHL starts this season, going 3-4-2 with a 2.13 GAA, .933 SV% and two shutouts. He makes for a solid option against an Islanders team that has lost four in a row (0-3-1).
