Forsberg will protect the road goal versus the Devils on Saturday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

Forsberg has played just once in the last five games, allowing four goals on 32 shots in an overtime win over the Blue Jackets on Monday. He has allowed at least three goals in six of his last seven outings. The Devils have scored 21 goals over their last six games, going 4-2-0 in that span.

Knight is projected to tend the road goal versus the Golden Knights on Saturday, Vinnie Parise of The Hockey News reports.

Knight returned from a three-game absence and earned a 3-2 overtime win over the Mammoth on Thursday. He's now set to wrap up the Blackhawks' short road trip with a tough matchup in Vegas. The Golden Knights have scored 17 goals over their last six games, though they have just two wins in that span.

Stolarz is set to start on the road against Minnesota on Sunday, per Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun.

Joseph Woll will get the nod in Saturday's road game against Buffalo. Stolarz has gone 0-2-2 while allowing 13 goals on 152 shots (.914 save percentage) in his four outings since the Olympic break. Like Toronto, Minnesota will be playing in the second half of a back-to-back Sunday. The Wild are 38-16-12 going into Saturday's matchup against the Rangers.

Grubauer is expected to start on the road against Vancouver on Saturday, per Sound of Hockey.

Grubauer has gone 0-3-0 across his past four appearances while allowing 13 goals on 100 shots (.870 save percentage). He's 11-8-3 with a 2.54 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 25 outings this campaign. He'll look to get back into the win column against Vancouver, which is 4-18-5 while averaging just 2.19 goals per game across its past 27 outings.

Andersen will defend the road net against Tampa Bay on Saturday, per Adam Gold of 99.9 The Fan.

Andersen has won his last two outings despite allowing seven goals on 44 shots. He has a 10-11-5 record this season with a 3.18 GAA and an .872 save percentage across 26 appearances. Tampa Bay sits third in the league with 3.52 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

Husso made 27 saves in a 2-0 road loss to Ottawa on Saturday.

Husso is 2-3-0 in his last five games and 7-7-1 with a 3.01 GAA and .898 save percentage in 15 appearances this season. He became the Ducks' No. 2 netminder after Petr Mrazek underwent season-ending hip surgery in February. Husso is a match-up option, but he probably won't play often behind Lukas Dostal during the Ducks' push to secure a playoff berth. The team is currently sitting in first place in the Pacific Division.

Shesterkin is expected to start on the road against Minnesota on Saturday, per Mollie Walker of the New York Post.

Shesterkin has won his past three starts while stopping 85 of 92 shots (.924 save percentage). He's 21-12-6 with a 2.50 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 40 outings in 2025-26. Minnesota is 12-3-3 while averaging 3.94 goals per game across its past 18 matches.

Ullmark made 23 saves in a 2-0 win over Anaheim on Saturday.

It was Ullmark's second shutout of the season and 14th of his career. Since the break, he has gone 4-1-2 with 17 goals allowed (.898 save percentage). The Sens are pushing for a playoff spot, and Ullmark will be instrumental in that push. This warming trend has arrived at the right time.

Blackwood will start Saturday's road matchup against the Jets, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

Blackwood has been a mixed bag since returning from the Olympic break, going 2-2-0 in five appearances while allowing 14 goals on 105 shots. He has posted a record of 18-7-1 this campaign with three shutouts, a 2.42 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 27 appearances. Winnipeg sits 23rd in the league with 2.83 goals per game this season.

Hellebuyck is expected to start at home against Colorado on Saturday, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

Hellebuyck will attempt to get back into the win column after allowing eight goals on 50 shots (.840 save percentage) across his past two outings. He's 16-18-9 with a 2.80 GAA and an .899 save percentage in 43 appearances in 2025-26. Colorado is 8-2-0 while averaging 3.60 goals per game across its past 10 outings.
