Hockey TrollHOST
He's going to backstop us.
Hockey TrollHOST
And I think that it was wise to not let Charlie Lindgren go.
Hockey TrollHOST
A lot of Caps fans malign keeping that tandem.
Hockey TrollHOST
A little bounce back here.
JacobHOST
We wanna, we wanna beat those teams or lose to those teams?
Sam RobinsonGUEST
Lose against them because they have, um, Washington has Chucky, uh, Charlie Lindgren, and that's Hershey's affiliate.
Sam RobinsonGUEST
Um, Anaheim is Frank Vatrano, who I went to school with.
Sam RobinsonGUEST
Um, Nashville is Hunter Skinner, who was one of ours, and Toronto has Akil Thomas, which was also one of ours.
ChrisPANELIST
But they have a really good backup, too.
ChrisPANELIST
Yeah, you've got Charlie Lindgren, who's also really good.
PrestonHOST
Yeah, no, this team's great.
PrestonHOST
I'll
Jim BiringerGUEST
You know, their D is really good.
Jim BiringerGUEST
with Lilligren, with Hall, with Chikrin, with Sandin, and you have Logan Thompson, Charlie Lindgren back there.
Jim BiringerGUEST
Oh, don't forget the Protis brothers are going to be there with Tom Wilson, 800 pounds on one line.
Jim BiringerGUEST
Like, This team is physical.
Nick KlossHOST
And then we get to actually evaluate games again.
Nick KlossHOST
and break down play and stuff like that, which is very exciting as we get to watch the rookies and the younger guys and, uh, some of those position battles, as far as seeing Miro, Cristal, Frank, Beauvillier, like what's going to happen with, uh, the bottom there so that'll be a lot of the talk this week um a little pre-season talk i asked on our instagram if anybody had any topic ideas when we record um tomorrow that was yesterday and we got a lot of great responses um just say some of the names to shout out cole uh colby t bukov 19 ryan leonard goat on instagram will wolf uh a couple others jonan um i just want to give all the love out to those people who responded um and uh we got some great topics metro division recap kind of looking at the off season got some requests to do bubble players miro uh Like I said, we talk about kind of that battle, Cristal, Cal Peterson, Clay Stevenson, and Charlie Lindgren situation from Colby.
Nick KlossHOST
Someone wants to talk Hudson.
Nick KlossHOST
We'll talk plenty of Cole Hudson, I'm sure.
Dan HolmiHOST
If Lindgren has got to take a game, let him take a game.
Dan HolmiHOST
But we need to see the best from Charlie Lindgren as well, that if Thompson needs a night off, give him a night off.
Dan HolmiHOST
Or there's just a brutal schedule.
Dan HolmiHOST
You need every point that you can get, but you don't want to do it at the peril of overtaxing or risking injury to your number one netminder.
Dan HolmiHOST
That is the biggest difference.
Dan HolmiHOST
And in all of this, Lindgren matters a lot.
Dan HolmiHOST
Putting up not good numbers last year that we need to see more from Charlie Lindgren.
Dan HolmiHOST
I know he didn't play as many games, but maybe that's because of the games that he was in.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Thompson is the uncontested starter.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
We're far from the time when Charlie Lindgren was stealing starts.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Uh, and he's coming off a great season, so how can we not, at this point, move Thompson to tier one? Uh, last year he was in tier four, so he's the person who definitely moves up the most.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
At like, uh, am- among the highest tiers here.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
And it's like I just know Sorokin is a great goalie.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
He's also-- Oh, by the way, Varlamov's back, so that's fun.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
He's got his friend back as the backup, but we're, again, far from the days where they were splitting starts, just like Thompson and Charlie Lindgren.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Uh, so all five of these goalies I'd be, I feel like I'm probably not gonna draft, 'cause I'm not gonna reach that high.
Dan HolmiHOST
That's a lot of work.
Dan HolmiHOST
So if he's the guy again, who do the Caps trust when he can't play? A bit later in the show, we'll talk about Charlie Lindgren and Clay Stevenson.
Dan HolmiHOST
And this is where it gets interesting because Lindgren is coming off a really rough season, while Stevenson just had the kind of year that makes you say, "Okay, maybe we need to see what this guy can actually do." Uh, but where we will start, um, is a piece that I'm coming to you about that I didn't think I would come to you.
Dan HolmiHOST
The Capitals signed Cal Petersen, a netminder, to a PTO.
Dan HolmiHOST
I really don't think that's the case.
Dan HolmiHOST
This is a veteran goalie coming in on a professional trial.
Dan HolmiHOST
And I think it's a reasonable thing to do because when you look at who else is in the room, you got Logan Thompson, of course, Charlie Lindgren, Clay Stevenson, Mitchell Gibson, and now Petersen.
Dan HolmiHOST
And it's one of the things I've talked about.
Dan HolmiHOST
I wanna see what steps Hudson and Leonard take forward.
Dan HolmiHOST
Um, I want to see how good Logan Thompson and Charlie Lindgren can be between the pipes, and that will be markers for success.
Dan HolmiHOST
Because once you make the Eastern Conference Final, the expectation of failure gets a whole lot more uncomfortable.
Dan HolmiHOST
That's where we're headed straight ahead.
9 MINS LATER
Dan HolmiHOST
Logan Thompson, right? Um, I'm, I'm high on him, but we have seen moments where he gets rattled and he's not his best self.
Dan HolmiHOST
We, uh, saw some injuries in seasons before, but the goaltending cannot regress.
Dan HolmiHOST
That Logan Thompson is for sure the number one, make no mistake about it, but what if injury happens? What if he does take a step back for whatever reason? And Charlie Lindgren is the Charlie Lindgren from last season.
Dan HolmiHOST
Well, that can change a lot of things, right? That you got Tuch, Kyrou, Boone Jenner, Desharnais, Ovi's back, but uh-oh, we found a bunch of holes in the boat called goaltending.
Luca ScottHOST
No
Anthony DeMarcoGUEST
... goaltenders in the NHL in Logan Thompson, and I think they have, with Charlie Lindgren, one of the better tandems.
Anthony DeMarcoGUEST
I like their center depth.
Anthony DeMarcoGUEST
It isn't the best in the NHL, but with Ström Into, uh, into Pierre-Luc Dubois, and now you add Boone Jenner, who may play on the wing, could play center.
