It would have been a perplexing thought to many if they were told ahead of the season that the Washington Capitals were the NHL's best team and Logan Thompson was one of its top goaltenders past the halfway point.

Logan Thompson made 32 saves, Pierre-Luc Dubois, Dylan Strome and Aliaksei Protas scored goals, and the Washington Capitals beat the Calgary Flames 3-1.

Capitals goaltender Logan Thompson has agreed to a six-year contract extension with an average annual value of $5.85 million.
