2025 Fantasy Outlook
After a shock trade from Vegas to Washington, Thompson delivered one of the more surprisingly good seasons in goal in 2024-25. He went 31-6-6 with a 2.49 GAA and a .910 save percentage over 43 appearances, a larger part of some unexpected success for the Capitals overall. There was some doubt about how Thompson would perform outside of the Golden Knights' system, but 2024-25 proved he is a strong goalie in his own right. The one downside for fantasy managers is that there will be no easy path to a full starter's workload, as the Capitals have both Thompson and Charlie Lindgren signed to multi-year deals to operate as a tandem. Thompson is the better of the two, potentially at a level to be a low-end No. 1 option in fantasy. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a six-year, $35.1 million contract with the Capitals in January of 2025.
Backstops team to OT victory
Thompson made 17 saves in a 3-2 overtime win over the Lightning on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Jake Guentzel beat him five-hole on a one-timer from the right hash marks in the first. And Brayden Point tipped a Victor Hedman point shot on the power play early in the third to push the Bolts out in front, as least temporarily. In three starts this season, Thompson has put up two wins and is riding a 2.01 GAA and .921 save percentage. He's allowed exactly two goals in all three games played.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024

2022
Thompson arrived in Washington over the summer after requesting a trade out of Vegas. He is seeking more playing time after splitting starts with Adin Hill in 2023-24. However, the 27-year-old Thompson will compete with last season's breakout darling, Charlie Lindgren, to be the top dog with the Capitals. Thompson has a chance to earn the gig. He has a record of 56-32-11 with four shutouts, a 2.67 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 103 career NHL appearances. He's two inches taller and 25 pounds heavier than Lindren and almost four years younger. Thompson and Lindgren will likely share starts until one of them gets hot. That works in daily formats, but it can be difficult for fantasy managers in weekly leagues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could see more starts
Thompson may find himself with a heavier workload this season after head coach Spencer Carbery told reporters Friday, "Logan with the year that he had has earned an opportunity to get a good crack at being our starting goalie but also we feel great about Chuckie as well," per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
ANALYSIS
It certainly sounds like the Caps aren't planning to go back to the full goalie rotation they deployed last season, which means Thompson could top the 50-game mark for the first time in his career. Despite being limited to just 43 regular-season appearances last year, the 28-year-old backstop still managed to rack up 31 wins while posting a career-best 2.49 GAA. If Thompson's performance slips early in 2025-26, fantasy players can probably expect Carbery to return to his goalie split share despite this vote of confidence.
