Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Earns 52nd career shutout
Rotowire
Bobrovsky posted a 15-save shutout in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Stars.
Bobrovsky is up to 52 shutouts in his career, tied with Tuukka Rask for 27th all-time and the second-most among active goalies behind only Jonathan Quick (64). It was the third shutout of the campaign for Bobrovsky, who also banked the Devils on Nov. 20 and the Golden Knights on Oct. 25. The 37-year-old netminder has won three straight games and is up to 13-8-1 with a 2.84 GAA and an .886 save percentage over 22 outings this season. The Panthers' four-game road trip ends Monday against the Lightning.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Secures win Wednesday
Rotowire
Bobrovsky stopped 27 of 30 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Mammoth.
Bobrovsky won his second outing in a row, but this was a much more convincing effort than Saturday, when he allowed six goals on 31 shots. The 37-year-old can blame his defense for a pair of Dylan Guenther breakaway tallies in Wednesday's contest. Bobrovsky is up to 12-8-1 on the year with a 2.98 GAA and an .882 save percentage through 21 starts. The Panthers will likely turn to Daniil Tarasov for a tough matchup Thursday versus the Avalanche, but Bobrovsky should be ready to go for Saturday's road game in Dallas.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Hangs on for OT win
Rotowire
Bobrovsky stopped 25 shots in Saturday's 7-6 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
The Panthers fell behind 4-1 midway through the second period and 6-4 early in the third, but they came back each time, and Bobrovsky made five big stops in OT before Sam Bennett found the winner with just four seconds left in the extra frame. It was Bobrovsky's first win in five outings, snapping a 0-3-1 stretch, but it was also the fourth time this season that he has given up five or more goals. His 2.98 GAA and .881 save percentage through 20 appearances are well below the 37-year-old netminder's usual standards.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Stuck with tough OT loss
Rotowire
Bobrovsky stopped 27 shots in Thursday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Predators.
The two-time Vezina Trophy winner took a shutout into the third period after Carter Verhaeghe had given the Panthers a 1-0 lead in the first, but the lack of support eventually caught up to Bobrovsky. Ryan O'Reilly jammed a puck past him midway through the third, before Steven Stamkos slotted homer the winner with less than a minute left in OT. Bobrovsky has gone four straight starts without getting into the win column, posting an 0-3-1 record during that skid, and since the beginning of November he's gone 5-5-1 in 11 outings with a 3.23 GAA and .875 save percentage.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Starting against Nashville
Rotowire
Bobrovsky will defend the home crease against the Predators on Thursday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.
Bobrovsky has been in a bit of a skid recently, going 0-3-0 with a 4.53 GAA and .831 save percentage over his last three starts. He'll have a favorable matchup as he attempts to get back on track, as the Predators are scoring just 2.62 goals per game this season, which is tied for the fourth-worst mark in the league.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Third straight loss
Rotowire
Bobrovsky made 26 saves in a 4-1 loss to Toronto on Tuesday.
He allowed three goals. Bob is 10-8-0, but he has lost three straight games, and his .883 save percentage this season is the worst of his career. Still, the Panthers don't need Bobrovsky to be excellent in the regular season -- he has delivered two straight Stanley Cup wins in the last two years. His Hall of Fame credentials carry him on the ice, but Bob is a frustrating fantasy netminder.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Drawing home start
Rotowire
Bobrovsky will patrol the home blue paint Tuesday versus Toronto.
Bobrovsky will look to bounce back Tuesday after allowing a total of eight goals on 35 shots (.771 save percentage) in losses to the Oilers and Flyers. The Leafs have alternated wins and losses over their last four games, though they broke out offensively for seven goals in a win over the Penguins on Saturday. Bobrovsky has yet to face Toronto in 2025-26, but he has a 16-9-1 record, 2.66 GAA and .907 save percentage over 27 career regular-season appearances against the Leafs.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Struggles continue Wednesday
Rotowire
Bobrovsky made 14 saves in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Flyers.
The veteran netminder had little chance on any of the pucks that got past him -- two found their way through traffic in front of the net, and two deflected past him. Still, it was a disappointing result after the Panthers had grabbed an early 2-0 lead. Bobrovsky has given up at least four goals in three of his last four outings, and over nine November starts, he's gone 5-4-0 with a shaky 3.43 GAA and .864 save percentage.

Bobrovsky is set to start at home against Philadelphia on Wednesday, per Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.
Bobrovsky will look to get back into the win column after surrendering four goals on 17 shots en route to a 6-3 loss to Edmonton on Saturday. He's 10-6-0 with a 2.80 GAA and an .887 save percentage in 16 outings this year. The Flyers are 11-7-3 and rank 26th in goals per game with 2.67.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Gets hook in Stanley Cup rematch
Rotowire
Bobrovsky gave up four goals on 13 shots before being replaced by Daniil Tarasov early in the second period of Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Oilers.
Jack Roslovic snuck a puck past Bobrovsky from a sharp angle just 25 seconds into the first period, and it was all downhill from there for the two-time Vezina Trophy winner. Bobrovsky will get a chance to reset, as Tarasov has already been announced as Monday's starter in Nashville, which will likely put the Panthers' No. 1 goalie back between the pipes at home Wednesday against the Flyers. On the season, Bobrovsky has a 10-6-0 record in 16 outings, but a 2.80 GAA and .887 save percentage that are below his usual standards.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Blanks Devils for second shutout
Rotowire
Bobrovsky made 31 saves in Thursday's 1-0 win over New Jersey.
Sam Reinhart gave the Panthers a lead midway through the first period, and it was all the offense Bobrovsky would need in a dazzling performance. The two-time Vezina Trophy winner has two shutouts on the season and 51 for his career as he closes in on cracking the all-time top 25, and while Bobrovsky's had a couple rough outings in November, over his last eight starts he's gone 6-2-0 with a 2.62 GAA and .892 save percentage.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: In goal Thursday
Rotowire
Bobrovsky will get the starting nod at home versus the Devils on Thursday.
Despite giving up five goals on 15 shots (.667 save percentage), Bobrovsky picked up his ninth win of the season against the Canucks on Monday. The veteran backstop trails Colorado's Scott Wedgewood (11) and Anaheim's Lukas Dostal (10) in victories this season. A clash with a banged-up New Jersey squad, which will be without Jack Hughes (finger), sets Bobrovsky up well to secure his 10th win of the year.

Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Earns win over Vegas
Rotowire
Bobrovsky stopped 30 of 32 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.
Bobrovsky was beaten twice in the third period, but both goals came when the Panthers had the lead, and he otherwise shut the door with an outstanding performance between the pipes. Bobrovsky has won four of his last five starts, although he posted a 2.77 GAA and a subpar .891 save percentage in that stretch.
