  • Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Takes loss on home ice

    Bobrovsky stopped 17 of the 19 shots he faced during Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Lightning. The third goal was an empty-netter.

    The 37-year-old has allowed two goals in each of his last three contests since being lit up seven times in a 7-3 loss to the Ducks on Nov. 4. Bobrovsky has surrendered two goals or fewer on eight occasions this season. He holds an 8-5-0 record, 2.68 GAA and .893 save percentage.

  • Mammoth's Jaxson Stauber: Posts shutout for Roadrunners

    Stauber logged a 32-save shutout in AHL Tucson's 3-0 win over Colorado on Saturday.

    Stauber was locked in and earned his first shutout since the 2023-24 campaign. This was his first win of the season in six outings -- he's gone 1-4-1 with a 3.08 GAA and an .889 save percentage. Stauber and Matt Villalta are competing to be the next man up should the Mammoth need to make a move for goalie depth.

  • Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy: Bounces back in victory

    Vasilevskiy stopped 22 of the 23 shots he faced during Saturday's 3-1 win over the Panthers.

    Vasilevskiy bounced back nicely after allowing five goals on just 13 shots in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to the Rangers. He shut down the Panthers to the tune of one goal and turned in a .957 save percentage in the game. The 31-year-old goaltender is still seeking his first shutout of the season, but Saturday's performance is much more in line with what the Lightning typically gets from their star netminder. He has a 6-5-2 record, 2.92 GAA and .900 save percentage for the season.

    Ducks' Ville Husso: Picks up third shutout

    Husso posted a 17-save shutout in AHL San Diego's 7-0 win over Abbotsford on Saturday.

    Husso is 6-4-1 on the season, and three of his victories have come via shutout. He's maintained a 2.21 GAA and a .920 save percentage so far. The 30-year-old netminder is doing everything he can to be ready should the Ducks need to call him up at some point later in the season.

  • Dan Vladar G | PHI

    Flyers' Dan Vladar: Gets little help in loss

    Vladar allowed five goals on 28 shots in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Stars.

    While his final line doesn't reflect it, Vladar was the only reason this game stayed that close. The Flyers came up flat in the second half of a back-to-back set, and the Stars took full advantage. Vladar has allowed four or more goals in three of his five outings in November, taking some of the shine off his strong start to the season. The 28-year-old netminder is at a 6-4-1 record with a 2.42 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 11 outings. The Flyers' next game is at home versus the Blues on Thursday, which is part of a two-game week for the team. That makes Vladar and Samuel Ersson unappealing options in weekly formats.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Sharp in Saturday's win

    Oettinger stopped 20 of 21 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Flyers.

    The Flyers struggled to get any offense going, making it an easy path to a third straight win for Oettinger. He's allowed just seven goals during the streak after giving up six goals to the Ducks in the Nov. 6 loss that came just before he got back in the win column. Oettinger is up to 8-3-2 on the year with a 2.75 GAA and a .900 save percentage over 13 starts. The Stars will host the Islanders on Tuesday to wrap up this brief homestand before heading out on a four-game road trip that begins in Vancouver on Thursday.

  • Matt Murray G | SEA

    Kraken's Matt Murray: Injured late in first period

    Murray (lower body) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Sharks.

    Murray sustained the injury on the Sharks' first goal, a power-play tally by Alexander Wennberg. This puts the Kraken's goalie depth in danger, as Joey Daccord (upper body) is still working his way back from a stint on injured reserve. Murray's status should be updated in the coming days, but if his injury is bad enough, he may find himself on IR.

  • Colten Ellis G | BUF

    Sabres' Colten Ellis: Receiving starting nod Saturday

    Ellis will guard the road goal versus the Red Wings on Saturday, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

    Ellis has allowed six goals on 67 shots over his first two NHL appearances, going 1-1-0. The Red Wings have cooled off since their hot start, winning just two of their last six games. They have scored a mediocre 12 goals in that span.

  • Jake Allen G | NJ

    Devils' Jake Allen: Set to start Saturday

    Allen will guard the road goal versus the Capitals on Saturday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

    Allen got back in the win column with a 2-1 shootout win over the Penguins last Saturday, but he then rode the bench for two games to break the Devils' goalie rotation. The Capitals are struggling, having scored just 12 goals while going 1-3-0 over their last four contests.

  • Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Tending twine against Toronto

    Knight will protect the home goal versus the Maple Leafs on Saturday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

    Knight has gone 2-0-2 in November, allowing nine goals on 145 shots for a .938 save percentage. The Maple Leafs have lost four straight games but have still scored 13 goals in that span, which could make this a challenging start for Knight.
