“Injury Drama Strikes as Habs’ Montembeault and Caps’ Thompson Bow Out of Game 3”
Capitals coach Spencer Carbery did not have an update on Thompson after the game.
“It was tough,” Capitals defenseman Jakob Chychrun said. “Obviously, [Strome] is trying to get back and make a desperate play to save a goal, and it’s unfortunate.”
Backup goalie Charlie Lindgren replaced Thompson, who had been outstanding for the Capitals in the first two games of the series, winning both with a .951 save percentage and a 1.47 goals-against average. He made 30 saves on 35 shots in Game 3.
