Lindgren is in the starter's crease at the Canadiens' morning skate.

Lindgren was recalled with Carey Price going on IR but backed up Antti Niemi for the first few games, but will get the cage tonight vs. the Flyers. He went 3-4-1 with a 2.43 GAA, .924 SV% and one shutout in eight starts with the Canadiens earlier this season. The 24-year-old was 8-14-1 with a 3.18 GAA and .891 SV% in 30 starts with Laval (AHL).
