Thompson was excellent in his return from the Olympic break, saving 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%), and hopes to build on that when he returns to the crease on Friday against his former team, the Vegas Golden Knights. The 29-year-old Thompson has faced the Golden Knights twice in his career and has played exceptionally in those games (2-0-0), posting a 2.01 GAA and .941 SV%. The Capitals enter Friday's contest as -114 home favourites against a Golden Knights team that erupted for six goals in its previous game, a 6-4 win over the Los Angeles Kings.

Thompson accompanied Team Canada during their Silver Medal performance at the Olympics, but should be well-rested after mainly serving as Jordan Binnington's backup, and will tend the twine for Washington on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Flyers. The 29-year-old Thompson went into the Olympic break with a 2.60 GAA and .908 SV% in his last 10 games (4-5-1). The Capitals enter Wednesday's contest as -144 home favourites against a Flyers team that defeated them 4-2 at the beginning of the month.
