  • Panthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Secures win over Sabres

    Bobrovsky made 29 saves while conceding two goals in a 3-2 overtime victory over Buffalo on Saturday.

    Bobrovsky ends the regular season having gone undefeated in regulation over his final four appearances. During that stretch, the veteran backstop went 3-0-1 with a 1.22 GAA and two shutouts. Look for Bobrovsky to see all of the starts once the Panthers' first-round series against the Lightning starts Sunday.

  • Sabres' Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen: Concedes three goals in loss

    Luukkonen gave up three goals on 42 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Florida.

    Luukkonen played in his final game of the season, posting a 27-22-4 record to go with a career-best 2.57 GAA, .910 save percentage and five shutouts in 54 appearances on the year. The netminder will be a restricted free agent in the offseason, so expect him to see a significant pay raise from this season's $837,500 cap hit.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Gives up four goals in loss

    Pickard allowed four goals on 23 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Coyotes. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

    Pickard has lost four of his last six outings, giving up 19 goals in that span. The 32-year-old dropped to 12-7-1 with a 2.48 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 22 appearances this season. The Oilers are locked in to the No. 2 spot in the Pacific Division, so they have no motivation to play starter Stuart Skinner versus the Avalanche on Thursday in the regular-season finale, but the team has not announced its goaltending plan for that contest yet.

  • Coyotes' Connor Ingram: Ends season with win

    Ingram stopped 28 of 30 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.

    Ingram played well in what was likely to be the last game for the Coyotes' franchise in Arizona. The 27-year-old finished the year well, winning four of his last six starts. He concludes the campaign at 23-21-3 with a 2.91 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 50 appearances. Ingram was also one of four goalies to lead the league with six shutouts. This was his first season of a three-year contract, though he'll likely be sharing the crease again with Karel Vejmelka in 2024-25.

  • Blues' Jordan Binnington: Strong in shootout loss

    Binnington stopped 36 of 37 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Stars.

    Binnington put in a good effort for his last game of the season, but he still ended up with his third defeat in his last four outings. The 30-year-old ends 2023-24 at 28-21-5 with three shutouts, a 2.84 GAA and a .913 save percentage over 57 appearances. Those are his best numbers in the last three years, but they're not enough for him to be considered among the NHL's top-tier goalies.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Strong in shootout win

    Oettinger stopped 25 of 26 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 shootout win over the Blues.

    Oettinger wrapped up the regular season by winning 10 of his last 11 outings, allowing just 17 goals in that span. The 25-year-old looked dialed in for this victory, which secured the top spot in the Western Conference and No. 2 in the league for the Stars this season. Oettinger is at 35-14-4 with a 2.72 GAA and a .905 save percentage through 54 appearances this season. He'll play the vast majority, if not all, of the Stars' playoff contests.

  • Coyotes' Connor Ingram: Receives start in finale

    Ingram will guard the home goal versus the Oilers on Wednesday, Patrick Brown of the Coyotes' official site reports.

    Ingram will get to the 50-game mark this season, though he'll end the season with a tough matchup. The Oilers are resting some players, but it doesn't appear any of their biggest scoring threats will be out of the lineup. Ingram has gone 5-6-0 with a 3.30 GAA and an .897 save percentage since the start of March.

    Maple Leafs' Martin Jones: Slated to start Wednesday

    Jones is expected to start on the road against Tampa Bay on Wednesday, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

    Jones is making his first appearance since March 23. He has an 11-7-1 record, 2.70 GAA and .908 save percentage in 21 contests this season. The Lightning, who rank fifth offensively with 3.48 goals per game, figure to be a challenging adversary for the netminder, unless they decide to rest a number of their key players for the meaningless finale.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Slated to face Coyotes

    Pickard is expected to start on the road against Arizona on Wednesday, per Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network.

    Pickard will get a chance to rebound after stopping 25 of 28 shots en route to a 3-2 overtime loss to the Coyotes in his last start Friday. He has a 12-6-1 record, 2.41 GAA and .912 save percentage in 21 contests this season. Edmonton is resting defensemen Darnell Nurse and Cody Ceci against Arizona, which might make Pickard's task somewhat tougher.

  • Jets' Laurent Brossoit: Expected starter

    Brossoit is set to start at home against the Canucks on Thursday, per Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site.

    Brossoit earned a 24-save shutout victory over Dallas in his last start last Thursday. He's been a superb backup goaltender for the Jets, posting a 14-5-2 record, 2.00 GAA and .928 save percentage across 22 contests this season. The Canucks are typically a difficult adversary, ranking sixth offensively with 3.42 goals per game, but they might rest some of their top players Thursday with the playoffs around the corner.
