Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Snaps losing streak Monday
Dostal stopped 34 of 36 shots in Monday's 4-2 win over the Stars.
Dostal earned his first win since Oct. 29, when he stopped 40 of 41 shots in a 3-1 victory over the Islanders. Between those wins, the 24-year-old Czech netminder had gone 0-4-1 with a 3.79 GAA and a disappointing .895 save percentage. The Ducks are playing in the second half of a back-to-back set Tuesday against the Blackhawks, so Dostal is likely to be rested in favor of John Gibson.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Yields three goals in loss
Dostal stopped 36 of 39 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Dostal allowed a goal in each period, and the Ducks weren't quite able to keep pace. This was his fifth straight loss, the last four of which have been in regulation. The 24-year-old netminder is now at a 4-6-2 record with a 2.75 GAA and a .922 save percentage through 12 starts. Dostal's skid puts him at risk of dropping into a timeshare with John Gibson for playing time in goal. The Ducks' next game is at home Friday versus the Red Wings.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Starting versus Vegas
Dostal will protect the home goal versus the Golden Knights on Wednesday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal has lost four straight starts, going 0-3-1 in that span. He may be feeling pressure for the No. 1 job in net, as John Gibson picked up a win over the Blue Jackets on Sunday in his season debut. Dostal will have a tough task Wednesday, though the Golden Knights are just 1-3-2 on the road this season.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Losing skid at four games
Dostal stopped 26 of 31 shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Wild.
Dostal's picked a poor time to slip up -- he's lost four straight outings (0-3-1) with 16 goals allowed in that span. The 24-year-old is now at a 4-5-2 record with a 2.73 GAA and a .922 save percentage over 11 starts. John Gibson was removed from injured reserve to serve as backup Friday, and it may not be long before the veteran gets a start given Dostal's recent struggles. The Ducks are also carrying James Reimer on the roster for now and may move forward with three goalies since they have no concerns for cap space.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Starting Friday's game
Dostal will be between the pipes for Friday's home game against Minnesota, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal will draw a fifth consecutive start and will attempt to turn things around after taking losses in his last two outings. Over those two starts, he's posted a 4.56 GAA and .864 save percentage. The 24-year-old will have his hands full against the Wild, who rank eighth in the league with 3.62 goals per game to begin the season.

Dostal allowed five goals on 37 shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Canucks.
Dostal has dropped three straight games, though the Ducks have scored a total of four goals in that span. The 24-year-old has seen a heavy workload in 2024-25, and he's shown some flashes of brilliance in spite of the team in front of him. Dostal is 4-4-2 with a 2.50 GAA and a .930 save percentage over 10 starts. The Ducks continue their homestand Friday with another challenging matchup against the Wild.

Dostal will attempt to bounce back after allowing four goals in a loss to Chicago on Sunday. The 24-year-old has been fantastic early on in the campaign -- he's sporting a 4-3-2 record, .937 save percentage and 2.22 GAA over nine appearances. Dostal's .937 save percentage ranks first among netminders with at least five starts in 2024-25. The Canucks have potted 30 goals through 10 contests this season.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Falters versus Blackhawks
Dostal allowed four goals on 29 shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Blackhawks.
Two of the goals came on Chicago power plays, so this wasn't entirely Dostal's fault. This outing broke his streak of five straight games allowing two or fewer goals. The 24-year-old is now at a 4-3-2 record with a 2.22 GAA and a .937 save percentage through nine starts. He looks like the real deal between the pipes, though wins are still going to be tough to come by as this young Anaheim roster finds its feet in the NHL. The Ducks continue their homestand against the Canucks on Tuesday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine Sunday
Dostal will be between the pipes for Sunday's home contest versus Chicago, according to Derek Lee of The Hockey News.
Dostal will make his ninth start of the 2024-25 campaign -- the 24-year-old has been outstanding early on, as he's posted a 4-2-2 record, .945 save percentage and 1.99 GAA through eight appearances. The Blackhawks are on the second half of a back-to-back, and they're putting up 2.67 goals per game through 12 contests.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Suffers defeat Thursday
Dostal allowed two goals on 46 shots, both to Sidney Crosby, in a 2-1 loss against Pittsburgh on Thursday.
Dostal was able to get his team the extra point by going into overtime but was beaten by Crosby in the extra session. Despite the loss, it was a solid performance by the 24-year-old netminder, who still posted a phenomenal .957 save percentage. On the year, Dostal is 4-2-2 with a 1.99 GAA and .945 save percentage -- numbers that should see him maintain the No. 1 job even once John Gibson (abdomen) is cleared to return.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Starting versus Penguins
Dostal will guard the road goal in Thursday's game versus the Penguins, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
Dostal made 40 saves in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Islanders. The Penguins have been inconsistent with 33 goals scored over 11 games, though they've also given up 47 tallies, which means the Ducks' offense could offer strong support for Dostal.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Busy in Tuesday's win
Dostal turned aside 40 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Islanders.
Dostal's shutout bid was spoiled by a Mathew Barzal power-play goal early in the third period, but it was still another stellar performance from the 24-year-old netminder. The 2018 third-rounder is 4-2-1 to begin the season with a 2.00 GAA and .943 save percentage, and while the return of John Gibson (abdomen) from IR might lessen his workload, Dostal seems to have a firm grip on the starting job in the Ducks' crease.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine Tuesday
Dostal will protect the road goal versus the Islanders on Tuesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Dostal has allowed just five goals over his last three games, but he has an unlucky 1-2-0 record in that span. The 24-year-old isn't getting a lot of help from his teammates -- the Ducks have been held to two goals or fewer in five of eight games so far. The Islanders have scored just 20 goals over eight contests, so this should be a favorable matchup for Dostal.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Sharp in Saturday's loss
Dostal turned aside 30 shots in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rangers.
The 24-year-old was locked in a scoreless goaltending duel with Jonathan Quick through two periods, but Dostal finally cracked in the third, getting beat by Ryan Lindgren and Will Cuylle. Dostal has had a hammerlock on the starting job for the Ducks to begin the season, starting six of the team's first seven games and going 3-2-1 with a 2.17 GAA and .936 save percentage. John Gibson (abdomen) is traveling with the team and appears close to coming off IR, but Dostal's current form should keep him atop the depth chart, even if he cedes a little more work to Gibson than he has to James Reimer so far.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Making road start
Dostal will protect the road net in Saturday's game versus the Rangers, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.
Dostal will make his fifth straight start, having gone 2-1-1 with 11 goals allowed over his previous four outings. He's faced at least 30 shots in four of his five starts this year, and playing against the high-tempo Rangers will likely make the 24-year-old a busy man again Saturday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Sharp in Tuesday's win
Dostal stopped 27 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.
Dostal continues to win the games he should, with two of his three victories this year coming against the Sharks. His shutout bid was broken up by Mikael Granlund in the third period, but Leo Carlsson quickly restored the Ducks' lead. Dostal is 3-1-1 with 11 goals allowed on 172 shots over five appearances. John Gibson (abdomen) is expected to travel on the Ducks' upcoming four-game road trip, so Dostal may not be the unquestioned No. 1 goalie for much longer, but he's played well enough to warrant his fair share of starts going forward.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Guarding home crease Tuesday
Dostal will tend twine at home against the Sharks on Tuesday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal will draw his fifth start of the 2024-25 season, and he's been very solid as Anaheim's top goaltender while John Gibson recovers from an appendectomy. Dostal has posted a 2-1-1 record, .930 save percentage and 2.48 GAA through four appearances. The 24-year-old will face a reeling San Jose club Tuesday -- the Sharks are 0-4-2 while scoring 2.00 goals per game, which is tied for last in the NHL.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Fades in third period
Dostal allowed two goals on 35 shots in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Kings. The last two goals were empty-netters.
The final score doesn't do justice to Dostal's performance in keeping this game close for two-plus periods. The Ducks were able to get one goal back with Dostal on the bench, but the Kings responded with their two empty-netters to send the 24-year-old to his first regulation loss. He's allowed 10 goals on 144 shots while going 2-1-1 over four starts this season. The Ducks' defense still has obvious flaws, but Dostal's workload and performance make him particularly valuable in formats that reward saves or shots against. The Ducks' next game is Tuesday versus the Sharks.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine Sunday
Dostal will be between the pipes for Sunday's home tilt against the Kings, according to Eric Stephens of The Athletic.
Dostal will make his fourth start Sunday, and he's been solid through three games with a 2-0-1 record, .927 save percentage and 2.64 GAA. The 24-year-old has faced at least 30 shots in every game he's appeared in. The Kings are averaging 3.40 goals for per game to start the 2024-25 campaign.
