Lindgren allowed three goals on 21 shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators.
In a low-shot contest, Lindgren allowed the only shot sent his way in overtime to end the game in Ottawa's favor. After an exceptional month of March in which he had nine wins and only three losses, Lindgren has lost five straight starts. The Capitals still have a strong opportunity for the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, and Lindgren's slump hasn't cost him the starting job over Darcy Kuemper so far, though it remains to be seen which goalie gets the nod for a pivotal game against the Red Wings on Tuesday.
