Lindgren kicked out 30 of 33 shots in a 4-3 overtime win over the Red Wings on Tuesday.
Both teams traded goals in the final two periods, and it looked like Washington would win in regulation, but Lindgren allowed a marker late to Patrick Kane. Lindgren did not face a shot in the extra frame and finished with a .909 save percentage. This was the third straight win for the 30-year-old netminder and his eighth in his past 10 games. Overall, Lindgren is a breakout candidate who is exceeding expectations, and fantasy managers should consider picking him up if available.
