Roy did not play on Tuesday and will remain sidelined for Thursday's game against the Detroit Red Wings. The 30-year-old defenseman is averaging 20:46 time-on-ice and has 14 points (1G / 13A) in 53 games this season.

Holl played 73 games with the Red Wings last season, but has spent the entirety of the 2025-26 campaign playing in the AHL for the first time in nearly a decade. The 33-year-old defenseman has 10 points (2G / 8A) in 31 games with the Grand Rapids Griffins (AHL) this season.
With Logan Thompson (upper body) out of the lineup, Lindgren will tend the twine for the Capitals on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings. The 32-year-old Lindgren had a poor showing in his previous outing, allowing six goals on 40 shots (.850 SV%) in a 6-5 loss to the Edmonton Oilers. The loss was the most recent in a string of unreliable performances for Lindgren, who has allowed three or more goals in seven consecutive games (2-3-2), posting an ugly 4.08 GAA and .876 SV%.
