Canadiens G Lindgren agrees to two-way contract

Goaltender Charlie Lindgren agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with the Montreal Canadiens, the team announced Thursday.


Lindgren posted a 24-18-6 mark with a 2.56 goals-against average and .914 save percentage in 48 games last season with St. John's of the American Hockey League. The 23-year-old began the 2016-17 campaign with the Canadiens as a backup to Al Montoya while former Hart and Vezina Trophy winner Carey Price nursed an injury.


Lindgren won both of his starts last season against the Florida Panthers and Detroit Red Wings, recording a 1.48 goals-against average and a .949 save percentage. He also emerged victorious in his NHL debut in April 2016.
