Lindgren allowed one goal on 35 shots in the Canadiens’ win over the Sabres on Saturday.

Lindgren allowed two goals on 34 shots in the Canadiens lost the Wild on Thursday. Lindgren was out-duelled by Devan Dubnyk, but it was another strong performance for the young netminder, who is 2-1-0 with a 1.35 GAA, 961 SV% and one shutout in his first three starts since being recalled.
Lindgren allowed two goals on 31 shots in the Canadiens win over the Golden Knights on Tuesday. Lindgren has won each of his first two starts since being recalled from Laval (AHL) while stopping 67 of 69 shots (.971 SV%).

Lindgren stopped all 38 shots that he faced in the Canadiens’ shutout win in Chicago on Sunday. It was an unreal season debut for Lindgren, who is with the team because of Carey Price’s injury. He earned a second straight start tonight and makes for a strong spot-start option with the Golden Knights in town.
Lindgren has gone 3-3-0 with a 3.53 GAA and .885 SV% in nine starts with Laval (AHL) so far this season. The 23-year-old has stopped 82 of 87 shots that he has faced in his three career NHL games. With Carey Price out, he will serve as Montreal’s No.2 goaltender for the time being.
