Charlie Lindgren Makes 45 Saves And Still Loses To Toronto
7 years agoMontreal Canadiens goaltender Charlie Lindgren faced 49 shots in a 4-0 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday. Lindgren has not been great for Montreal since No. 1 goaltender Carey Price went down with a concussion, as he and goaltender Antti Niemi have lost 16 of 22 matches since Feb. 1. This game, however, could have been a lot more ugly than it was if it was not for Lindgren, as Montreal’s defense appeared to give no support to their netminder. Lindgren now owns a 4-8-2 record this season with a 3.03 goals-against average and a .908 save percentage. Montreal returns to action on Monday night against the Florida Panthers and will likely announce their starting goalie at the morning skate that day.
