Saros stopped 27 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

Saros was beaten once in each period, but by the time he allowed Will Smith's power-play goal in the second frame, the Predators had already scored six goals. Saros is on a three-game winning streak, posting a 2.58 GAA and a .918 save percentage while saving 90 of the 98 shots he's faced in that span.

Nedeljkovic stopped 13 of 19 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Predators.

Nedeljkovic has lost his past four outings and has allowed at least five goals in three of those outings, so it's hard to trust him in any fantasy format at the moment. Nedeljkovic also owns an .816 save percentage during his losing skid. Up next, the Sharks have road games against the Blues on Thursday and the Blue Jackets on Saturday.

Shesterkin was the first goalie off during Wednesday's morning skate, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports, indicating that he'll draw the road start against Toronto.

Shesterkin is in the midst of a three-game losing streak in which he's gone 0-3-0 with a 3.39 GAA and .894 save percentage. He's made a pair of starts against the Maple Leafs this season, going 1-0-1 with a 1.99 GAA and .929 save percentage.

Hildeby was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Wednesday.

Hildeby was up with the Maple Leafs because of Anthony Stolarz's (throat) injury, but Stolarz got the start in Toronto's 4-2 victory over Boston on Tuesday. Stolarz and Joseph Woll will likely split the starting duties, while Hildeby is returning to the minors. Hildeby has a 5-6-4 record, 2.90 GAA and .910 save percentage in 19 outings with the Maple Leafs in 2025-26, but he didn't play for the club during his latest NHL stint.

Vladar stopped 16 of 19 shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Following Philadelphia's opening goal in the first period, Vladar allowed three consecutive goals across the second and third stanzas. With Tuesday's loss, he now holds a 23-12-7 record, a 2.43 GAA and a .907 save percentage through 44 appearances this season. Over his last five outings, Vladar has played at a high level with a 3-1-1 record, a 1.76 GAA and a .931 save percentage. He's a near shoo-in for career-best numbers in multiple major stat categories. He should continue to provide good value for fantasy managers down the stretch.

Greaves halted 24 of 26 shots on net in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Flyers.

Greaves continued his strong run of play Tuesday, allowing just one goal late in the first and third periods. Across his last five appearances, he has a 4-1-0 record, a 1.59 GAA and a .934 save percentage. Overall, the 24-year-old netminder has a 24-13-8 record, a 2.57 GAA and a .910 save percentage through 46 appearances this season. The young netminder is playing like one of the league's best and has helped the Blue Jackets enter a playoff spot in the Metropolitan Division. Greaves is an elite goaltender to roster in fantasy for the remainder of the fantasy playoffs.

Dobes turned aside 41 of 43 shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Hurricanes.

Dobes helped the Canadiens rally from a two-goal deficit despite a heavy shot discrepancy. Carolina outshot Montreal by a 43-18 margin in the contest. His performance was just the second outing of his 51-game NHL career, where he made 40-plus saves. With Tuesday's big win, the 24-year-old netminder has a 23-8-4 record, a 2.88 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 35 appearances this season. Since the Olympic break, Dobes has trended in the right direction with a 5-3-0 record, a 2.64 GAA and a .909 save percentage over eight appearances. He's heating up at the right time, making him a strong option for the remainder of the fantasy playoffs.

Andersen stopped 14 of 18 shots on net in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Canadiens.

Andersen's solid start to the contest declined over time, and Carolina's 2-0 lead evaporated, as he allowed four consecutive goals between the midway points of the first and third periods. With the loss, the 35-year-old netminder now has a 13-12-5 record, a 3.15 GAA and an .871 save percentage across 30 games this season. The loss snapped his five-game win streak. While the overall stats aren't inside the upper echelon of the league, Andersen has played his best hockey of the season since the Olympic break, making him a solid option in most formats for the remainder of the fantasy playoffs. His next chance to bounce back is Saturday against New Jersey.

Sorokin entered Tuesday's 4-3 loss to Chicago in relief and allowed one goal on 12 shots after replacing David Rittich.

Sorokin took over the crease in the second period with his team down 3-1. Frank Nazar's tally early in the second frame ended up giving Sorokin the loss. The Islanders' defense has been letting both goalies down in March, as Sorokin has gone 4-5-0 with a 2.74 GAA and .904 save percentage.

Rittich gave up three goals on 12 shots before being replaced by Ilya Sorokin to begin the second period of Tuesday's 4-3 loss to Chicago.

Anders Lee gave the Islanders a 1-0 lead just 49 seconds into the game. However, Rittich's defense let him down after that, allowing clean breaks to Nick Lardis and Ilya Mikheyev. Rittich avoided taking the loss because Sorokin allowed the eventual game-winner. Rittich has struggled during his five appearances in March, going 2-1-0 with a rough 4.13 GAA and .868 save percentage.
