Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Tending twine against Utah
Korpisalo will operate as the starting goaltender during Thursday's home game against Utah, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports.
Korpisalo has served as the Bruins' clear No. 2 netminder in recent weeks, but he'll be between the pipes for the second time in the last three games during Thursday's matchup. He's been solid over his last two starts, posting a 1-0-1 record, 2.82 GAA and .912 save percentage.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Strong start wasted
Korpisalo made 28 saves in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Blues on Saturday.
Boston wasted a strong performance from Korpisalo. He made a 10-bell save late in the first period on a 3-on-1 shot from Brayden Schenn that kept the score 2-1 for the Bruins. His teammates struggled to contain the Blues' third line, as the trio scored two goals and combined for five points in regulation. Korpisalo deserved better but dropped to 3-2-1 in six starts with a 2.74 GAA and .901 save percentage. With this performance, Korpisalo may have earned Monday's start in Columbus.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Hangs on for OT win
Korpisalo turned aside 34 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Flames.
The Bruins seemed to have the game under control through two periods and took a 3-1 lead into the third, but Korpisalo gave up tallies to Yegor Sharangovich and Nazem Kadri before sweating out the final 10 minutes of regulation just to earn an OT point. The veteran netminder has started three of the last six games as Jeremy Swayman struggles under the weight of his new contract and elevated expectations. In seven appearances overall Korpisalo has a 3-2-0 record with a 2.71 GAA and .900 save percentage.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Draws start Thursday
Korpisalo will start in the home crease for Thursday's game against Calgary, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Korpisalo recorded a 20-save shutout during his most recent start, which came on the road Saturday against Philadelphia, and he'll attempt to stay hot at home Thursday. Over five outings this year, he's logged a 2-2-0 record, 2.70 GAA and .894 save percentage.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Blanks Philly on Saturday
Korpisalo made 20 saves in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.
The veteran netminder earned his fifth career shutout with some big stops in the second period when the outcome was still in doubt. Korpisalo had a bumpy Bruins debut in the team's season opener, but since then he's allowed just six goals on 78 shots (.923 save percentage) over his last four appearances. With Jeremy Swayman struggling to live up to the big contract he signed in early October after his training-camp holdout, Korpisalo could see more work in the short term.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Starting against Flyers
Korpisalo will guard the road net Saturday versus Philadelphia, Joe Haggerty of Boston Sports Journal reports.
Korpisalo appeared in relief of Jeremy Swayman on Thursday, stopping 13 of 15 shots in an 8-2 loss to Carolina. The 30-year-old Korpisalo has struggled in limited playing time this season, going 1-2-0 while allowing 12 goals on 93 shots across four games. Philadelphia has averaged only 2.73 goals per game in 2024-25.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Needed in relief Thursday
Korpisalo turned aside 13 of 15 shots after replacing Jeremy Swayman midway through the second period of Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
The Boston defense didn't give much support to either netminder, but Korpisalo took less damage to his ratios. The 30-year-old has played for four teams in the last three seasons, and it's not hard to see why Korpisalo has become a journeyman -- in four appearances for the Bruins so far in 2024-25, he's stumbled to a 3.48 GAA and .871 save percentage.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Takes hard-luck loss
Korpisalo allowed a goal on 18 shots in Tuesday's 2-0 loss to the Flyers. The second goal was an empty-netter.
Korpisalo was on the wrong side of a shutout, allowing the decisive goal to Tyson Foerster at 5:32 of the second period. Through three starts, Korpisalo is 1-2-0 with 10 goals allowed on 78 shots. Jeremy Swayman will likely be between the pipes Thursday versus the Hurricanes, but Korpisalo should get another chance to start soon, as the Bruins visit the Flyers on Saturday before hosting the Kraken on Sunday.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Facing Flyers
Korpisalo will protect the home net Tuesday versus Philadelphia, according to Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald.
During his last outing, Korpisalo stopped 22 shots in a 5-3 victory over Colorado on Oct. 16 to record his first win as a member of the Bruins. He has surrendered nine goals on 60 shots through two appearances this season. Philadelphia has accounted for 26 goals over nine games in 2024-25.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Picks up win Wednesday
Korpisalo stopped 22 of 25 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche.
Korpisalo's second start with the Bruins was a noticeable improvement on his debut. All three Avalanche goals came on the power play, so Korpisalo still needs to work on being the best penalty killer on the ice as the goalie often needs to be. The 30-year-old is 1-1-0 with nine goals allowed on 60 shots through two starts. It's safe to assume Jeremy Swayman will be between the pipes for Saturday's game in Utah.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Set to start Wednesday
Korpisalo will protect the road goal versus the Avalanche on Wednesday.
Korpisalo had a poor start in his Bruins debut, allowing six goals on 35 shots against the Panthers. The 30-year-old then gave way to Jeremy Swayman for three games. Korpisalo will try to make a better second impression against an Avalanche team that has scored 10 goals in three games but has been leaky on the back end.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Disastrous Boston debut
Korpisalo made 29 saves in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Panthers.
Making his debut for the Bruins, Korpisalo was beaten four times in the first period -- twice in 64 seconds early in the frame, and then twice in 60 seconds late. The veteran netminder settled down the rest of the way, but Boston couldn't put together a comeback against the defending Stanley Cup champs. The Bruins are counting on Korpisalo to replace Linus Ullmark in their goaltending tandem with Jeremy Swayman, but the workload may end up tipping Swayman's way if Korpisalo doesn't step up his game.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Gets starting nod versus Cats
Korpisalo will be between the road pipes against Florida on Tuesday, Steve Goldstein of Bally Sports Florida reports.
Korpisalo gets the nod for the opening game of the year thanks to Jeremy Swayman's contract situation, which saw him miss the entire preseason. With Swayman now under contract, the 30-year-old Korpisalo figures to return to the No. 2 role after Tuesday's tilt and is unlikely to see more than 30 appearances in goal this year.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: First real wobble of preseason
Korpisalo made 22 saves in a 4-1 loss to the Kings on Thursday.
This was Korpisalo's first queasy outing of the preseason, mostly at the hand of a red-hot Quinton Byfield who put up a hat trick. Two of Byfield's goals came 25 seconds apart in the second. Korpisalo is the de facto starter in Boston until Jeremy Swayman inks his new deal. Yes, many pundits have said he'll be better inside the Bruins' structure than he was in the porous Sens' approach last season. But Boston brass needs him to be near perfect with Swayman holding out for a new deal. Korpisalo was far from perfect Thursday.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: In goal Thursday
Korpisalo will protect the road goal in Thursday's preseason game versus the Kings in Quebec City.
The Bruins are the designated road team for this neutral-site exhibition. The 30-year-old Korpisalo has allowed three goals on 47 shots over his two preseason starts so far. He is positioned to be the Bruins' No. 1 goalie to begin the year, as Jeremy Swayman (contract dispute) will likely need some time to get up to speed once he eventually signs a new deal.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Starting Saturday
Korpisalo will protect the road goal versus the Flyers in Saturday's preseason game, Jon Bailey of Philly Hockey Now reports.
Korpisalo stopped all seven shots he faced versus the Capitals in his preseason debut Tuesday. The 30-year-old will continue to function as the Bruins' starter while Jeremy Swayman remains an unsigned restricted free agent.

Bruins' Joonas Korpisalo: Tending twine Tuesday
Korpisalo will patrol the home crease in Tuesday's exhibition matchup against Washington, per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe.
Korpisalo compiled a 21-26-4 record with a 3.27 GAA and an .890 save percentage across 55 regular-season outings for Ottawa in 2023-24. He could start the upcoming campaign as Boston's No. 1 netminder if Jeremy Swayman, a restricted free agent, remains unsigned.
