Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Downed by Ducks in shootout
Tarasov turned aside 15 shots in regulation and overtime and one of three shootout attempts in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Anaheim.
The Panthers outshot the Ducks 33-17 through 65 minutes, but Tarasov couldn't do much on either puck that got past him. Leo Carlsson's shorthanded goal came on a defensive zone breakdown by Florida, and there wasn't much anyone could have done to stop Cutter Gauthier's blistering one-timer on the power play. Tarasov is still looking for his first win with the Panthers, going 0-2-1 in three starts with a 2.64 GAA and an .886 save percentage. His opportunities to play this season will likely remain limited behind Sergei Bobrovsky.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Facing Anaheim
Tarasov will be between the home pipes Tuesday against the Ducks.
Tarasov has allowed a total of six goals split evenly across a pair of starts so far in 2025-26, as he hasn't received a lot of action behind workhorse Sergei Bobrovsky. The 26-year-old Tarasov will take on an Anaheim squad that has found the back of the net 15 times over its last three games, a span in which the Ducks are 2-1-0.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Comes up short against Jersey
Tarasov turned aside 30 shots in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Devils.
The Panthers grabbed a 1-0 lead early in the first period, but after he allowed the tying tally to Jack Hughes on the power play in the second, Tarasov got beaten twice in the third, although there wasn't much he could have done on either goal. The 26-year-old netminder is still looking for his first win with Florida, and through two starts, he's given up six goals on 53 shots as he tries to provide some stability behind Sergei Bobrovsky.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Expected to start Thursday
Tarasov is set to start on the road against New Jersey on Thursday.
Tarasov is giving Sergei Bobrovsky a breather after Bobrovsky started in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Detroit. The 26-year-old Tarasov is appearing in his second game of the season after stopping 17 of 20 shots en route to a 5-2 loss to Philadelphia on Monday. He had a 7-10-2 record, 3.55 GAA and .880 save percentage in 20 appearances with Columbus during the 2024-25 regular season.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Flops in Philly
Tarasov stopped 17 of 20 shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers, with Philadelphia's final two goals getting scored into an empty net.
Making his Panthers debut, Tarasov allowed a goal in each period and didn't put forth his best effort, but neither did his teammates -- Sean Couturier's first tally of the night in the second period came on a clean breakaway, while his goal in the third came just after a Philly power play had expired. Sergei Bobrovsky hasn't played fewer than 50 games over a full season since he arrived in Florida, but Tarasov has never played more than 24 games in an NHL campaign, so he should be comfortable with the light workload he's likely to receive in 2025-26.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Starting in Philadelphia
Tarasov will guard the road goal against the Flyers on Monday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
Tarasov will make his Florida debut after being acquired from Columbus in the offseason. As a member of the Blue Jackets in the 2024-25 regular season, he provided a 7-10-2 record with one shutout, a 3.55 GAA and an .888 save percentage across 20 appearances. However, his numbers could get a boost behind the stingy Florida defense.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Playing in goal Thursday
Tarasov will protect the road goal in Thursday's preseason game versus the Lightning, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
Tarasov is making his third start of the preseason. He's stopped 62 of 67 shots over his first two outings, good for a .925 save percentage. He'll be backed up by Brandon Bussi on Thursday, but it's likely Tarasov gets a full game in this one.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Starting against Carolina
Tarasov will defend the road crease during Wednesday's preseason game against Carolina, Panthers play-by-play announcer Steve Goldstein reports.
After four seasons in Columbus, Tarasov joined the Panthers during the offseason and should serve as Sergei Bobrovsky's backup this year. Tarasov made 20 regular-season appearances for the Blue Jackets last year and went 7-10-2 with a 3.55 GAA and .880 save percentage.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Signs one-year deal Tuesday
Tarasov signed a one-year, $1.05 million contract with the Panthers on Tuesday, according to PuckPedia.
Tarasov will take over the backup role to Sergei Bobrovsky in the short term, as Vitek Vanecek had that gig during the team's most recent Stanley Cup run. Tarasov had a 7-10-2 record, a 3.54 GAA and an .881 save percentage over 20 appearances with Columbus in 2024-25. Considering the Panthers' success and the fact that they're returning most of their core, Tarasov should make for a decent plug-and-play option when he's between the pipes during the 2025-26 campaign.

Panthers' Daniil Tarasov: Acquired by Cats
Tarasov was brought in via trade by the Panthers from the Blue Jackets on Thursday in exchange for a 2025 fifth-round pick, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports.
Tarasov heads into the offseason as a restricted free agent, so the Panthers still have to get him under contract ahead of the 2025-26 campaign. The 26-year-old backstop saw action in 20 games with Columbus this year in which he posted a 7-10-2 record to go with a 3.55 GAA, .880 save percentage and one shutout. Tarasov will head into the upcoming season as the No. 2 option behind Sergei Bobrovsky, who is entering the final year of his contract and is 36 years of age -- opening the door for Tarasov to potentially be the netminder of the future in Florida.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Pulled early in Sunday's loss
Tarasov stopped four of six shots in Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Senators.
Tarasov was pulled after just 4:26 of Sunday's contest and replaced by Elvis Merzlikins. Tarasov conceded two early goals and was credited with the loss. Overall, the 26-year-old netminder has a 7-10-2 record with a 3.55 GAA and a .880 save percentage in 20 appearances this season. With the Blue Jackets falling out of the wild-card race in the Eastern Conference, Tarasov may get a few more starts to round out the regular season. However, it is best to fade him in all fantasy formats amid his struggles this season.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Starting Sunday
Tarasov will guard the road net Sunday in Ottawa, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Tarasov appeared in relief of Elvis Merzlikins on Thursday, stopping all four shots he faced against Colorado in a 7-3 loss. This will be Tarasov's first start since March 15. The 26-year-old netminder is 7-9-2 with an .883 save percentage this season.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Needed in relief Thursday
Tarasov turned aside all four shots he faced after replacing Elvis Merzlikins early in the third period of Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Avalanche.
The 26-year-old continues to be used sparingly, but that could be about to change. Tarasov hasn't given up more than three goals in an appearance since Jan. 23, posting a 2.50 GAA and .913 save percentage over his last six outings. Meanwhile, Merzlikins has a ghastly 5.11 GAA over his last five starts. With the Blue Jackets' playoff chances hanging by a thread, coach Dean Evason might have little choice but to give Tarasov a bigger workload.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Concedes three goals in loss
Tarasov saved 24 of 27 shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Senators.
Tarasov surrendered two goals in the first period and one more in the second, which would be enough for the Senators to seal the win at home. However, Tarasov kept Columbus' net tidy throughout the final 30 minutes of the contest. The 26-year-old goaltender now has a 7-9-1 record with a 3.49 GAA and an .882 save percentage in 18 appearances this season. Tarasov has lost two of his last three starts and has allowed three goals in each of those outings. It is best to fade the struggling Tarasov for the rest of the season in fantasy.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Set to face Ottawa
Tarasov is expected to start on the road against Ottawa on Saturday, according to Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site.
Tarasov is making his first appearance since allowing three goals on 20 shots en route to a 4-0 loss to the Rangers on March 15. He's 7-8-2 with a 3.52 GAA and an .881 save percentage in 17 appearances in 2024-25. Ottawa is tied for 18th in goals per game with 2.92.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Slated to serve as backup
Tarasov (illness) will serve as the backup netminder for Monday's road game against the Islanders, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Tarasov was unable to suit up for Friday's game against the Penguins due to an illness, but it's encouraging that he'll be able to dress as the backup to Elvis Merzlikins on Monday. The Blue Jackets have an upcoming back-to-back set that includes games against the Canucks on Friday and against the Senators on Saturday, and it wouldn't be surprising to see Tarasov draw the start in one of those matchups.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Dealing with illness
Tarasov will be unavailable for Friday's road game against the Penguins due to an illness, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
Elvis Merzlikins will start Friday's matchup, while Jet Greaves will serve as the backup due to Tarasov's illness. Tarasov should tentatively be considered day-to-day ahead of Monday's road game against the Islanders, although he's seen sporadic playing time in recent weeks, starting in just three of the Blue Jackets' 12 games since the 4 Nations break.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Gets no help in loss
Tarasov stopped 17 of 20 shots in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Rangers.
Tarasov's three-game winning streak came to a close as the Blue Jackets' offense couldn't solve Igor Shesterkin in this contest. The 25-year-old Tarasov has allowed just 10 goals over his last four outings, providing solid goaltending in the backup role, though he'll operate as the starter until Elvis Merzlikins (personal) returns to the team. Tarasov is down to 7-8-2 with a 3.51 GAA and an .882 save percentage over 17 appearances this season. The Blue Jackets have a back-to-back next week (Thursday versus the Panthers, Friday versus the Penguins), so Tarasov shouldn't have to wait too long for his next start.

Blue Jackets' Daniil Tarasov: Gets starting nod Saturday
Tarasov will guard the home cage versus the Rangers on Saturday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.
Tarasov has won his last three starts, dating back to Jan. 31. He is 7-7-2 with one shutout, a 3.54 GAA and an .883 save percentage over 16 games this season. Jet Greaves will back up Tarasov on Saturday due to the absence of Elvis Merzlikins, who is with his wife for the birth of their second child. The Rangers are generating 3.00 goals per game, 13th in the NHL in 2024-25.
