About Logan Thompson

Logan Thompson is a Canadian professional ice hockey player who is a goaltender for the Washington Capitals of the National Hockey League (NHL). After playing junior hockey in the Western Hockey League (WHL) with the Brandon Wheat Kings, Thompson went undrafted, and spent time in U Sports, the ECHL, and the American Hockey League (AHL) before signing his first NHL contract with the Vegas Golden Knights in 2020. After two years spent primarily with the AHL Henderson Silver Knights, Thompson received significant playing time in the 2021–22 season due to injuries to other Vegas goaltenders, becoming the first former U Sports goaltender to start an NHL game in over 30 years. After taking over as Vegas' starting goaltender for the 2022–23 season, Thompson was named an NHL All-Star in 2023 and won the Stanley Cup with Vegas the same year, despite suffering injuries late in the season. After one further season with Vegas, Thompson was traded to Washington, where he established himself as their starting goaltender and signed a six-year extension. Internationally, Thompson has represented Canada twice, winning silver medals at the 2022 World Championship and 2026 Winter Olympics.
