Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Set to start Saturday
Markstrom will protect the road goal Saturday versus the Lightning, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Markstrom will get the nod in the Devils' second game, and he'll be looking to bounce back from a tough opener. He allowed five goals on 32 shots in a 6-3 loss to the Hurricanes on Thursday. The 35-year-old still has quite a bit of a leash as the Devils' top goalie, but if his struggles persist in the long run, Jake Allen could get more time.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Allows two late goals in defeat
Markstrom conceded five goals on 32 shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Hurricanes. One of the Hurricanes' goals was an empty-netter.
Markstrom and his club were in a tightly-contested game late in the final frame, but the Hurricanes exploded for three goals in the final three minutes. This was far from his best performance, though better days should be coming for Markstrom, as the Devils will likely give him plenty of offensive support throughout the season. Look for the Swedish netminder to get the nod again Saturday in Tampa Bay.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Expected to start Thursday
Markstrom is slated to patrol the visiting crease on Opening Night in Carolina on Thursday, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Markstrom rebounded from a tough couple of seasons to post a 26-16-6 record with four shutouts, a 2.50 GAA and a .900 save percentage across 49 outings in 2024-25. He'll face a Carolina side that is expected to be at or near the top of the Metropolitan Division standings this season.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Set to start Thursday
Markstrom will protect the road goal in Thursday's preseason game versus the Rangers.
Markstrom will make his third start of the preseason. He's played roughly a full game over his first two appearances, allowing three goals on 21 shots. Expect Markstrom to get the full game Thursday so he can be stretched out for the Devils' Opening Night game versus the Hurricanes next Thursday.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: In goal Tuesday
Markstrom will defend the cage for Tuesday's preseason matchup with the Islanders at home, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Markstrom put up 26 wins in 49 regular-season games with the Devils last season, his eighth straight year reaching the 20-win threshold. Still, during that eight-year stretch, the Swedish backstop has only notched 30 victories once, back in 2021-22 when he was with the Flames. With Jake Allen in the fold, Markstrom is unlikely to be asked to play 60 games a year, which could prevent him from putting up the big win totals like Connor Hellebuyck or Andrei Vasilevskiy.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Heartbreaking loss in 2OT
Markstrom made 49 saves Tuesday in the Devils' 5-4 double-overtime loss to the Hurricanes in Game 5 of their first-round series.
With New Jersey on the brink of elimination, Markstrom did everything he could to keep his team alive -- the Devils were outshot 19-4 in extra time, but the 35-year-old netminder finally got beaten by Sebastian Aho on a Carolina power play 4:17 into the second OT. Markstrom had an up-and-down regular season but still posted respectable numbers with a 26-16-6 record, 2.50 GAA and .900 save percentage, and with one year left on his current contract he should be back as the Devils' No. 1 goalie in 2025-26.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Tending twine in must-win game
Markstrom will protect the road goal versus the Hurricanes in Tuesday's Game 5, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.
Markstrom is 1-3 despite a 2.53 GAA and a .913 save percentage over four playoff games. He's kept things moderately close in the series despite the Devils losing a defenseman to injury nearly every game of the playoffs so far. However, this is a must-win contest, so Markstrom will need to be at his best to send the series back to New Jersey.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Yields four goals in home loss
Markstrom conceded four goals on 28 shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 4. The fifth marker was an empty-netter.
Markstrom allowed more than three goals for the first time this postseason, and the Devils were unable to overcome a 3-2 deficit in the second period, even with Frederik Andersen (undisclosed) exiting the game. Markstrom is down to a 1-3 record with a .913 save percentage and a 2.53 GAA over four playoff outings. The 35-year-old and his club are now on the brink of elimination ahead of Game 5, which takes place in Raleigh on Tuesday.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Tending twine Sunday
Markstrom will patrol the home crease against Carolina on Sunday in Game 4, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Markstrom made 25 saves in Friday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Hurricanes in Game 3. He has given the Devils a chance to win each game of the team's first-round playoff series while posting a 1-2 record with a 2.08 GAA and a .929 save percentage through three outings.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Keeps team in series
Markstrom allowed two goals on 27 shots in Friday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Hurricanes in Game 3.
Going down 3-0 in the series would likely have put the Devils out of the playoffs in short order, but Markstrom prevented that with this performance. He also got some much-needed goal support in the Devils' return to home ice. Markstrom is now 1-2 with seven goals allowed on 98 shots over three playoff contests. He'll look to even the series in Game 4 on Sunday.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: In goal for Game 3
Markstrom will get the starting nod at home versus the Hurricanes in Game 3 on Friday, per NHL.com.
Markstrom has put up decent ratios in the previous two postseason contests, registering a 2.52 GAA and a .930 save percentage. Still, that hasn't stopped the veteran netminder from losing both outings and sliding into a four-game losing streak. If he can get some additional offensive support -- the Devils have scored just two goals in their two playoff contests -- Markstrom could break out of the loss column Friday.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Gets little help in Game 2 loss
Markstrom stopped 25 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 2 of their first-round series.
New Jersey grabbed a 1-0 lead early in the first period on a Jesper Bratt tally, but the game belonged to Carolina after that, with the game-winner coming on a Jordan Martinook shorthanded rush early in the second. Markstrom has played well to begin the postseason, giving up five goals on 71 shots, but that hasn't stopped the Devils from falling into an 0-2 hole. They'll try to turn things around when the series shifts to Jersey for Game 3 on Friday.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Looking to even series Tuesday
Markstrom will be between the road pipes against the Hurricanes on Tuesday in Game 2.
Markstrom handled his largest workload of the season in Game 1 on Sunday, turning aside 41 of 44 shots on net, but the Devils were able to muster up only one goal. It won't get any easier in Game 2, as New Jersey will be without Luke Hughes (upper body) and Brenden Dillon (lower body). Dennis Cholowski and Simon Nemec will make their playoff debuts due to those injuries, so Markstrom will need to be in top form in order to send the series back to New Jersey tied at 1-1.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Faces heavy workload in loss
Markstrom saved 41 of 44 shots on goal in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 1.
Markstrom was put under pressure by Carolina's offense throughout the entire game. While he allowed three goals, he played well to save 41 shots including eight chances with a man disadvantage. He ended his first game of the postseason with a .932 save percentage. Markstrom had a strong regular season with 26-16-6 record but has lost his last three outings and is winless since New Jersey's April 5 matchup versus the Rangers. If the Devils' blue line can provide Markstrom with a stronger backing for the rest of the series, he should be in a better spot to turn the tides in New Jersey's favor.
