Coach Spencer Carbery praised Thompson’s performance in the third period, where he made key saves to maintain the lead, earning him the first star of the game. Thompson, returning from injury, expressed his readiness and confidence, demonstrating why he is the Capitals’ number one goaltender in the playoffs.
