While Canada’s 4 Nations Face-Off roster was announced on on Dec. 4, there’s still a chance for players to join on an emergency basis in the event of injury. Although, according to Washington Capitals goaltender Logan Thompson, that opportunity won’t be coming for him.

The Washington Capitals continue to be one of the more welcomed surprises in the NHL this season. After entering last year’s playoffs with the worst goal differential of any team in the postseason, the Capitals look like a much different team at the halfway mark of the 2024-25 campaign, with a lot of the credit going to their goaltender.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Logan Thompson stopped all 19 shots he faced for his first shutout of the season, and the Washington Capitals beat the Anaheim Ducks 3-0 on Tuesday night.

Washington goalie Logan Thompson was distracted by nachos on the ice but secured a crucial 3-2 win over the Oilers, continuing his incredible season.
