Forsberg stopped 22 of 27 shots on goal in Saturday's 6-4 loss to New Jersey.
Following a strong second period where Forsberg helped the Kings take a 3-2 lead, he ended up surrendering four goals in the third for New Jersey to steal the win. With the loss, he now has an 11-10-5 record, a 2.83 GAA and a .900 save percentage through 28 appearances this season. The 33-year-old netminder posted a strong stretch of play leading into the Olympic break, but has had mixed results since with a 2-3-0 record, a 3.83 GAA and an .878 save percentage across six outings. Since the return of Darcy Kuemper from the Olympics, Forsberg has only played in one of three games, making his next probable chance to appear during the team's back-to-back in a week's time.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Downs former team in OT
Rotowire
Forsberg made 28 saves in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
Facing the team he made his NHL debut with back in 2014-15, Forsberg wasn't at his sharpest, but he got just enough support to escape Columbus with a win. The veteran netminder has allowed four or more goals in four of seven outings since the beginning of February, going 2-3-1 with a 3.52 GAA and .886 save percentage.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: In goal against Jackets
Rotowire
Forsberg will be between the pipes on the road versus Columbus on Monday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
Forsberg has underwhelmed of late, going 1-3-0 with a 3.57 GAA and one shutout in his last five outings. With the 33-year-old backstop getting the nod Monday, Darcy Kuemper figures to guard the cage for Tuesday's road game against the Bruins in the second leg of the Kings' back-to-back.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Gives up three goals
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 35 of 38 shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Avalanche. The fourth goal was an empty-netter with two seconds left in the game.
Forsberg has been struggling of late, and while Monday's game was a tough test, he was still beaten three times, though his .921 save percentage suggests his performance wasn't all that bad. The Swedish netminder has racked up three losses in his last five outings, and that includes the 8-1 loss to the Oilers in which he allowed four goals in relief. Forsberg owns a 3.45 GAA and .894 save percentage in four appearances since the league resumed following the Olympics.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Set to start Monday
Rotowire
Forsberg will be between the home pipes Monday against the Avalanche, per the NHL media site.
Forsberg is coming off his best performance of the season -- he posted a 29-save shutout in Saturday's 2-0 win over Calgary. Prior to that game, he had allowed at least four goals in three straight appearances, a stretch in which he went 0-2-0 with 13 goals allowed on 68 shots (.809 save percentage). The 33-year-old will have his hands full Monday against the league's top team, as the Avalanche rank first in the NHL in both goals per game (3.79) and shots per game (34.2).

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Posts 29-save shutout
Rotowire
Forsberg posted a 29-save shutout in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Flames.
Forsberg earned a win for the first time since Jan. 27, when he stopped 27 of 28 shots in a 3-1 victory over the Red Wings, and this was a much-needed outcome for the 33-year-old. Forsberg allowed four goals on 22 shots in an 8-1 loss to the Oilers the last time out and had suffered three defeats (one in overtime) in his previous three February appearances. He heads into March owning a 2.65 GAA and a .908 save percentage since the beginning of January, so his performances have been better than his poor record indicates in that span.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Slated to face Calgary
Rotowire
Forsberg is expected to start at home against Calgary on Saturday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.
Forsberg is 0-2-1 with a 4.54 GAA and an .843 save percentage across his past four appearances with the Kings. That's dropped him to 8-9-5 with a 2.80 GAA and an .899 save percentage across 24 outings in 2025-26. The Flames own a subpar 24-27-6 record this campaign, but they've gone 3-1-0 over their past four games while outscoring the opposition by a 13-10 margin.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Makes relief appearance Thursday
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 18 of 22 shots in relief of Darcy Kuemper in Thursday's 8-1 loss to the Oilers.
Forsberg fared only a little better than Kuemper, who stopped 11 of 15 shots. This outing didn't lead to a decision for Forsberg, who is winless over his last four games while allowing 16 goals on 102 shots in that span. For the season, he has a 2.80 GAA and an .899 save percentage in 24 appearances. The Kings haven't gotten reliable goaltending from either netminder recently, which could turn this crease situation into a timeshare until one of Forsberg or Kuemper gets on track.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Hit hard early in loss
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 18 of 22 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
All four goals were surrendered within the first 14 minutes of the game. Forsberg was forced to wear this one, as Darcy Kuemper was in goal for Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken. Forsberg is down to 9-7-5 after his first regulation loss in 2026. He's added a 2.57 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 22 appearances this season. Forsberg should start one of the first two games after the Olympic break, either Feb. 25 versus Vegas or Feb. 26 versus the Oilers.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Takes overtime loss
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 31 of 34 shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
Forsberg gave up the first two goals of the game, but the Kings picked him up with a pair of tallies 3:28 apart late in the third period. Sebastian Aho denied Forsberg the win at 1:25 of overtime. Despite the defeat, Forsberg hasn't lost in regulation in his last six outings, allowing just 10 goals on 153 shots in that span. For the season, the 33-year-old netminder has done pretty well with a 9-6-5 record, a 2.50 GAA and a .910 save percentage through 21 contests. He should get another start in a back-to-back before the Olympic break, as the Kings host the Kraken on Wednesday before visiting the Golden Knights on Thursday.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Impressive against Detroit
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 27 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Red Wings.
Forsberg has looked impressive in his last two appearances, winning both times. He's allowed just two goals on 56 shots faced over that stretch and could continue to see starts here and there. That said, he probably won't be taking over the team's No. 1 role between the pipes from Darcy Kuemper any time soon.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Slated to start in Detroit
Rotowire
Forsberg is expected to be between the road pipes against the Red Wings on Tuesday, Zach Dooley of LA Kings Insider reports.
Forsberg is 2-0-1 and has turned aside a combined 81 of 87 shots (.931 save percentage) over his previous three appearances. The veteran netminder will have a tough test against a Detroit team that is 18-8-1 on home ice this season. However, Forsberg has an exceptional track record against the Red Wings during his career, registering a 3-0-1 record, 1.74 GAA and .939 save percentage over four outings.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Relieves injured Kuemper in win
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 27 of 28 shots in relief of Darcy Kuemper (upper body) in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Rangers.
Forsberg entered the game late in the first period after Kuemper left following some contact in the crease. The 33-year-old Forsberg was excellent over the final two frames, limiting the Rangers to only J.T. Miller's goal with 27 seconds left in the third period. Should Kuemper miss time, Forsberg would resume the No. 1 role as he did for a couple of weeks in December during Kuemper's previous absence. With the win, Forsberg is up to 8-6-4 with a 2.56 GAA and a .907 save percentage through 19 appearances. The Kings' next matchup is Saturday in St. Louis to begin a six-game road trip, so fantasy managers have some time to see how Kuemper's injury situation plays out before rushing to add Forsberg.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Takes overtime loss Saturday
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 31 of 33 shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Ducks.
Goal support continues to be a problem -- the Kings have scored a total of eight goals over Forsberg's last four appearances. The 33-year-old netminder is 1-1-1 in that span with nine goals allowed on 88 shots. Forsberg is at a 7-6-4 record with a 2.60 GAA and a .903 save percentage over 18 appearances. The Kings' next game is Tuesday versus the Rangers, and it doesn't look like Darcy Kuemper has lost control of the No. 1 job yet despite some recent mediocre play, so expect Forsberg to remain in the backup role.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Set to start Saturday
Rotowire
Forsberg will play in goal on the road versus the Ducks on Saturday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Forsberg is making his first start in four games. The 33-year-old has watched Darcy Kuemper fail to record a win in the last three contests, so the door could be open for Forsberg to push into a timeshare with a good performance here. He's 7-6-3 with a 2.65 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 17 outings this season.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Collects shootout win
Rotowire
Forsberg stopped 21 of 24 shots in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Oilers.
Forsberg wasn't able to make a third-period lead stick, but he turned aside Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins in the shootout to come away with the win. Forsberg has just three wins over his last nine outings, allowing 21 goals on 222 shots in that span. For the season, he's up to 7-6-3 with a 2.65 GAA and a .900 save percentage over 17 appearances (15 starts). Darcy Kuemper has struggled since returning from an upper-body injury, so the opportunity may be there for Forsberg to get more time if he can consistently earn wins. The Kings' next game is Monday at home versus the Stars.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Slated to start Saturday
Rotowire
Forsberg is expected to defend the road net against Edmonton on Saturday, per Jared Shafran of LA Kings Insider.
Even though he made a relief appearance in Friday's 5-1 loss to Winnipeg, the Kings still plan to turn to Forsberg for the second half of the team's back-to-back. He has posted a 6-6-3 record this season with one shutout, a 2.64 GAA and a .901 save percentage across 16 appearances. Edmonton is tied for fourth in the league with 3.39 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.
