  • Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Starting against Chicago

    Nedeljkovic was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, indicating that he'll start at home against Chicago.

    Nedeljkovic largely struggled over the second half of March, including a stretch in which he went 0-4-1 with a 4.40 GAA and .818 save percentage over five starts. However, he's won his last two outings while allowing just three goals on 44 shots. He'll have a favorable matchup against the Blackhawks, who rank last in the NHL with 2.56 goals per game.

  • Kings' Anton Forsberg: Leaves ice first Monday

    Forsberg was the first goalie off the ice Monday, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports, indicating he'll defend the cage at home versus the Predators.

    While Forsberg has reached the 30-game mark for the third straight year, he'll likely once again fail to reach 15 wins for the third time in the last four seasons. Looking ahead to the Kings' schedule, the team ends the regular season with a back-to-back, which will likely be the last time Forsberg starts this year, barring an injury to starter Darcy Kuemper.

  • Sabres' Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen: Set to face Lightning

    Luukkonen will patrol the home crease against Tampa Bay on Monday, according to Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550.

    Despite allowing nine goals on 66 shots, Luukkonen has won his previous two appearances against the Lightning this campaign. Overall, he has gone 19-9-3 in 2025-26 with one shutout, a 2.56 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 32 appearances. Tampa Bay sits second in the league with 3.59 goals per game this season.

  • Senators' Linus Ullmark: Earns win over Hurricanes

    Ullmark stopped 25 of 28 shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Hurricanes.

    Ullmark had started in the first leg of a back-to-back set Saturday, allowing four goals on 23 shots in a loss to the Wild, but he bounced back admirably Sunday. Ullmark has been slightly inconsistent on a game-to-game basis lately, going 3-2-1 with a 3.38 GAA and an .890 save percentage over his last six starts. That said, he's posted a save percentage of at least. 890 four times in that span, so for the most part, he's been serviceable while holding a steady role as the Senators' No. 1 goaltender.

  • Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy: First off Monday

    Vasilevskiy was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports, indicating he will defend the road net against Buffalo on Monday.

    Vasilevskiy has won his last two outings while stopping 42 of the 46 shots he has faced. He has a 37-13-4 record this campaign with two shutouts, a 2.31 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 54 appearances. Buffalo ranks seventh in the league with 3.39 goals per game this season.

  • Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Beaten five times Sunday

    Andersen stopped 25 of 30 shots in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Senators. The sixth goal was an empty-netter with 57 seconds left in the game.

    Andersen has been rotating with Brandon Bussi between the pipes, but the former hasn't had the best results of late after dropping three of his past four starts. Over that stretch, Andersen has posted disappointing numbers, allowing a total of 13 goals on 76 shots. It wouldn't be surprising if the timeshare between Andersen and Bussi continues until the end of the regular season, but from a results perspective, Andersen is clearly the No. 2 option to protect the Hurricanes' crease behind Bussi.

  • Dan Vladar G | PHI

    Flyers' Dan Vladar: Strong showing once again

    Vladar stopped 18 of 19 shots on goal in Sunday's 2-1 overtime win over the Bruins.

    Vladar was beaten early in the third period by a Pavel Zacha wrister on the power play, but he looked excellent the rest of the way as the Flyers escaped with the OT win. Vladar has posted a save percentage north of .910 in three of his last four starts, and the 28-year-old goaltender is in form late in the regular season. Over his last 10 games, Vladar has gone 6-3-1 with a 2.55 GAA and an .899 save percentage.

  • Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Tagged with OT defeat

    Korpisalo stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Flyers.

    Korpisalo was beaten at the 4:19 mark of the first period and then held his own until overtime, when Porter Martone's first goal of the season gave Philadelphia the win. Korpisalo is the No. 2 option between the pipes for Boston, and while this outing was a strong showing overall, his recent performances haven't been good. In seven appearances since the Olympic break, the 31-year-old veteran has gone 3-1-3 with a 3.42 GAA and an .887 save percentage.

  • Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Set to start Monday

    Hellebuyck is expected to get the starting nod at home versus the Kraken on Monday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

    Since the Olympic break, Hellebuyck has appeared in 17 of the Jets' last 20 contests, going 8-5-4 with a 2.74 GAA. As long as the Jets have a chance at securing a playoff spot, Hellebuyck should continue to see the bulk of the workload.

  • Penguins' Arturs Silovs: Solid showing in win

    Silovs turned aside 29 of 31 shots on net in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Panthers.

    Silovs earned his third consecutive win on Sunday and his second win against the Panthers of the weekend. Overall, the 25-year-old netminder now has a 19-10-8 record, a 2.99 GAA and an .890 save percentage through 37 appearances this season. His first full campaign as a regular option in net has been a solid showing. He's been a large part as to why Pittsburgh is on pace to make the playoffs and should continue to see consistent starts while Stuart Skinner (upper body) remains out of the lineup. Silovs is a solid streaming option for the remainder of the fantasy playoffs.
