South paw. Butterfly style. Above average lateral quickness. At times appears smaller than his stature when dropping into butterfly / setting up hybrid / paddle down.
Competes to stop pucks any way he needs too.
Faced 289 shots in the segment - stopping 263 - allowing 26 goals against
Washington team PK % hovers around 80% - Goalie needs to be best penalty-killer. Lindgren has provided the Caps some timely saves in the second half of the season.

South paw goalie who gives the shooter a different look.
Good size but does have a deep stance that makes him appears shorter in the net
Sound crease composure. Plays between his posts. No unnecessary movement.
Good feet. Low net coverage is sound.
Solid rebound control. If he sees the puck, clean from range, he absorbs shots very well.
Does get playing a bit deep in his crease at times / almost along the goal line when opponents have extended zone time - exposing high quadrants in the process.
Trending up overall - Easily provides a 50/50 option for starts.
