Lindback had a disappointing season with Nashville last season. Despite Pekka Rinne missing the majority of the year, Lindback was only able to amass eight wins while posting a 2.90 GAA and .891 SV%. He will face his former team tonight and the Predators are coming off of 3-2 win over the Senators.
Lindback was 8-12-2 with a 2.90 GAA and .891 SV% in 18 regular season starts with the Lightning last season. He was forced to start in the playoffs because of an injury to Ben Bishop and went 0-3 with a 3.92 GAA and .881 SV%. He becomes Kari Lehtonen's back-up on a Stars team who got a ton better today.
As expected, Lindback tried to avoid a sweep in Game 4 with Bishop on the mend.
With Bishop shelved, Lindback is still clearly the starter in Tampa despite being pulled in Game 2.
Lindback gave up five goals on 44 shots in a 5-4 OT loss in Game 1. Lindback allowed a couple of soft goals and the Lightning will need him to be better because Ben Bishop is not close to returning and they likely won't score four on Carey Price on a regular basis.
With Ben Bishop still out with an arm injury, Lindback will get the call in game 1 vs. the Habs. He struggled all season long, but after Bishop got hurt he won all three outings while stopping 77 of 79 shots (.975 SV%). He has played well, but this definitely favours the Habs as they have Olympic Gold medalist Carey Price between the pipes.
Lindback allowed two goals on 36 shots in a win over the Flyers on Thursday. With Ben Bishop out, Lindback will start the season finale. He was great against Philly, giving his coaches and teammates confidence that he can play well for them in the playoffs if he is called upon.
Lindback stopped all 25 shots that he faced after replacing the injured Ben Bishop in Tuesday's 3-0 victory vs. Toronto. It looks like Bishop will miss at least the rest of the regular season, leaving Lindback with the starting duties. Lindback is 6-12-2 with a 3.11 GAA and .884 SV% this season. While those are ugly numbers, he has managed to go 2-0 with a 2.50 GAA and .915 SV% vs. Philly.

Lindback has not played since January 30 because of an ankle injury. Lindback has recently returned from a conditioning stint with Syracuse (AHL) where he finished 1-1-0 with a 1.54 GAA and .939 SV%. The Lightning will ease him back into NHL action by likely giving him the start vs. the Sabres.
