Charlie Lindgren will continue with the Washington Capitals after signing a three-year, $3 million per season deal. This news means the Capitals now have both their goalies, Lindgren and Logan Thompson, signed through the 2027-28 season. Lindgren expressed relief and excitement after finalizing the deal, highlighting how the business side of hockey can be challenging. He praised the Capitals organization and credited general manager Chris Patrick for reassuring him about his place in the team's plans during contract discussions.
It feels great. The business side is probably the toughest part of hockey. But no, really happy to get it done and to sign a three-year deal here.
It's really just a home run organization, so just really, really happy to sign the deal.
To be honest, [I've] got a lot of respect for Chris Patrick. He still told me where I fit into the picture and how bad he wanted me to be a part of this organization.
Hearing about Thompson's extension made me wonder about my own future, but Chris Patrick reassured me that I still had a place.
