Askarov will patrol the home crease in Saturday's clash with Edmonton, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.
Askarov will get the nod for his second start since the Olympic break, and his fourth in a row dating back to the beginning of February. He has gone winless over his last four outings with an .874 save percentage, which is marginally lower than his season average. Across 36 appearances this campaign, the 23-year-old netminder has a 17-16-2 record, a 3.52 GAA and an .888 save percentage. He'll have a tough task in net Saturday against an Edmonton team that ranks third in the NHL with 3.52 goals per game in 2025-26.
