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.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Falls short in overtime
Dostal allowed four goals on 49 shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Avalanche.
Dostal had won his previous two starts, and he put in a commendable effort against an Avalanche team hungry for its first win. In the end, Dostal came up 41 seconds short of getting the game to a shootout. He's now allowed eight goals on 109 shots over his three outings while operating as the Ducks' No. 1 goalie. The Czechia native will likely be back between the pipes for Sunday's game versus the Kings.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: First off ice Friday
Dostal was the first goaltender off the ice at morning skate, according to Ryan Boulding of NHL.com, and is projected to protect the road crease in Colorado on Friday.
Dostal will get his third start in four games as he has taken over the No. 1 job in Anaheim with John Gibson out of action after an appendectomy Sept. 25. Dostal is 2-0-0, giving up four goals on 60 shots. He will face the Avalanche, who have been reeling this season, starting the year with a 0-4-0 record despite scoring 13 goals.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Grabs overtime win
Dostal stopped 26 of 30 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over Utah.
Dostal struggled with Utah's ability to get traffic to the front of the net. The 24-year-old Dostal was still able to earn his second win in as many starts, and he's allowed just four goals on 60 shots this season. He's set to hold down the No. 1 role in goal at least until John Gibson (abdomen) is ready to make his season debut. The Ducks' next game is a road contest in Colorado against the 0-4-0 Avalanche.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Starting against Utah
Head coach Greg Cronin said that Dostal will start in the home crease for Wednesday's game against Utah, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal served as the Opening Night starter for the Ducks on the road against San Jose on Saturday, and he posted a 30-save shutout in the win. He'll attempt to build momentum Wednesday while John Gibson (abdomen) remains on injured reserve.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Opens season with shutout
Dostal posted a 30-save shutout in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Sharks.
Dostal's claim to the Anaheim crease is off to a great start after a shutout in his season debut. He earned the second shutout of his career, with the first being a 4-0 win over the Blackhawks on March 21 of last season. The 24-year-old netminder can build momentum for himself in goal while John Gibson (abdomen) continues to recover. The Ducks are back in action Sunday in Vegas, though it's unclear if it will be Dostal or James Reimer in goal for that contest.

Dostal will defend the road net Saturday against San Jose, according to Derek Lee of The Hockey News.
Dostal earned a mark of 8-13-0 with a 3.67 GAA and an .893 save percentage in 25 appearances on the road during the 2023-24 regular season.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Secures shootout win
Dostal allowed two goals on 25 shots in Friday's 3-2 preseason shootout win over the Sharks.
Dostal went 2-1-0 with eight goals allowed on 108 shots over four preseason appearances. Facing a heavy workload has been a theme for a few years in Anaheim, giving Dostal higher fantasy value in formats that reward shots against or saves if he can continue to turn them aside at a reasonable rate. The 24-year-old is poised to open the season as the Ducks' top goalie while John Gibson remains on the mend from an appendectomy.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Facing Sharks
Dostal will be in goal on the road in Friday's preseason game versus the Sharks.
Dostal was sharp in his third preseason game Wednesday, stopping 35 of 37 shots to defeat Utah. The 24-year-old goalie will have plenty of time to prepare for the regular season after this contest, as the Ducks' season opener is Saturday, Oct. 12, also in San Jose, as part of a back-to-back that also sees Anaheim visit Vegas a day later.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Sharp in win
Dostal stopped 35 of 37 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 preseason win over Utah.
Dostal has allowed six goals on 83 shots over three preseason games. The 24-year-old goalie looks ready for the regular season, and he'll have a chance to establish himself as the No. 1 goalie while John Gibson recovers from his appendectomy. Dostal's fantasy value may still be limited to deeper formats initially, but he could be a strong waiver-wire add in standard leagues if the 2024-25 Ducks take a significant step forward compared to last year's team.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine Wednesday
Dostal will serve as the starting goaltender in Wednesday's home preseason game against Utah, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal is expected to play the entire game in his third start of the preseason Wednesday. He last started against the Kings on Saturday and turned aside 30 of 33 shots. Dostal will likely serve as the No. 1 goaltender for the Ducks once the regular season gets underway, but he'll see increased competition for playing time once John Gibson (appendectomy) is cleared to return.

Dostal stopped 32 of 33 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Dostal had a tough matchup for the season finale, but he was able to put in a strong performance for his third win over six outings in April. The 23-year-old ends the season at 14-23-3 with a 3.33 GAA and a .902 save percentage over 44 appearances. Dostal is set to fill a similar role for the Ducks next season, though that could change if the team can find a taker for John Gibson's $6.4 million cap hit.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Gets starting nod in finale
Dostal will guard the road goal versus the Golden Knights on Thursday, Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Dostal will end up having played in seven of the Ducks' final eight games. He's gone 2-3-1 with 18 goals allowed over his last six outings. The Golden Knights still have playoff positioning to play for, so this is likely to be a challenging season finale for Dostal in his 44th outing of the campaign.
