Kings' Anton Forsberg: Loses in shootout
Forsberg allowed three goals on 24 shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Sharks.
Forsberg has gone 1-1-1 with eight goals allowed on 65 shots over his three outings in November. He never had a chance to protect a lead Thursday, as the Kings were able to snag a standings point by overcoming a trio of one-goal deficits. Forsberg is now at a 3-2-2 record with a 2.94 GAA and an .888 save percentage through seven outings this season. He'll be back in the backup role for Friday's home game versus the Bruins, which Darcy Kuemper will start.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Poised to start Thursday
Forsberg is expected to be between the pipes on the road against San Jose on Thursday, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.
Forsberg will be making his seventh appearance in the crease, having gone 3-2-1 with a 2.96 GAA and one shutout in his last six outings. With the Kings heading into a back-to-back, the team will let Darcy Kuemper skip the trip to San Jose, which means Pheonix Copley will serve as the No. 2 option versus the Sharks following his call-up from AHL Ontario on Wednesday.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Posts shutout against former team
Forsberg stopped all 17 shots he faced in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Senators.
Forsberg blanked his former team by making all of his saves at even strength en route to his first shutout of the season. Overall, the 32-year-old twine protector has a 3-2-1 record with a 2.96 GAA and an .890 save percentage across six starts this season. While he's allowed three goals or more in four of his six appearances this year, Saturday's shutout could give him a few extra opportunities moving forward. For now, Forsberg's best used as a spot fantasy starter in favorable matchups.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Tending twine Saturday
Forsberg will defend the visiting goal in Ottawa on Saturday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Forsberg will return to Ottawa, where he spent five seasons before heading to the Kings in the offseason. The 32-year-old is 2-2-1 with a 3.54 GAA and an .878 save percentage. The Senators are fifth in NHL scoring, averaging 3.44 goals per outing.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Gives up five goals in loss
Forsberg stopped 19 of 24 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.
Forsberg has allowed five goals in two of his five outings so far. The 32-year-old was shaky from the start but escaped the first period with the game tied at 2-2 before the Panthers locked things down in the final 40 minutes. Forsberg is now 2-2-1 on the year with a 3.54 GAA and an .878 save percentage. The Kings have struggled on the whole, and they're not getting a lot of help from the backup netminder to provide steady play. Expect Darcy Kuemper between the pipes as the Kings kick off a road trip in Pittsburgh on Sunday.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Tending twine Thursday
Forsberg will start Thursday's home game against the Panthers, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.
Forsberg has started in just one of the Kings' last eight games, but he'll get the start against a Florida squad that has struggled early in the season, scoring just 2.54 goals per game, which is the fourth-worst mark in the league. Over four appearances this year, Forsberg has gone 2-1-1 with a 3.18 GAA and .894 save percentage.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Wins in Chicago
Forsberg stopped 22 of 23 shots in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Forsberg had his best outing of the season while playing in the second half of a back-to-back set. Connor Bedard had the lone goal against him at 7:04 of the first period, but Forsberg and the Kings' defense combined to keep things locked down from there. Through four outings, he is 2-1-1 with 13 goals allowed on 123 shots. He's had some bumpy moments to start the season, but with Darcy Kuemper healthy again, Forsberg should be able to settle into the backup role and produce numbers worthy of being a streaming option in fantasy. The Kings' next game is Tuesday in San Jose.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Between pipes in Chicago
Forsberg will patrol the road blue paint Sunday versus the Blackhawks, according to Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.
Forsberg will make his fourth start of the season Sunday, as he's posted a 1-1-1 record, 3.89 GAA and .880 save percentage through his first three appearances. The Blackhawks have played well lately, scoring 18 goals over their last five games, a span in which they are 4-0-1. The 32-year-old Forsberg is 1-1-1 with one shutout, a 3.32 GAA and an .841 save percentage over three career appearances against Chicago.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Struggles early, loses in overtime
Forsberg stopped 36 of 40 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
Forsberg dropped to 1-1-1 on the year. The 32-year-old was tagged for two goals by Jordan Staal in the first four minutes, but the Kings were able to claw back, only for Seth Jarvis to seal the Hurricanes' win in overtime. With 12 goals allowed on 100 shots over three games, Forsberg's performance has been poor behind a shakier-than-usual defense. The Swede will handle No. 1 duties between the pipes until Darcy Kuemper (lower body) returns. Kuemper's status for a five-game road trip that begins in St. Louis on Tuesday has yet to be announced, so Forsberg could be in for a busy week as the Sharks play five games in a span of eight days.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Receiving starting nod
Forsberg will protect the home goal versus the Hurricanes on Saturday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Forsberg is off to a middling start this season, going 1-1-0 with eight goals allowed on 60 shots through two games. He'll be facing a Hurricanes team that has started this year 4-0-0, so this will be a tough assignment. Expect some low-event hockey between two teams known for maintaining strong defensive structures.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Loses to Penguins
Forsberg stopped 22 of 25 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Penguins. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Forsberg has a brief chance to fill in as the Kings' top goalie while Darcy Kuemper (lower body) is out. This wasn't a great showing for Forsberg, who is now 1-0-1 with eight goals allowed on 60 shots over his two starts this season. The 32-year-old could cede some starts to Pheonix Copley if his play doesn't improve. The Kings have a tough matchup ahead when they host the Hurricanes on Saturday.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Expected to face Pittsburgh
Forsberg is slated to start at home against Pittsburgh on Thursday.
Forsberg is making his second start of the season after allowing five goals on 35 shots en route to a 6-5 shootout win over Vegas on Oct. 8. Darcy Kuemper is dealing with a lower-body injury, so Pheonix Copley will serve as Forsberg's understudy. Pittsburgh is 2-2-0 and tied for 23rd in goals per game with 2.75 this year.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Rough showing in shootout win
Forsberg stopped 30 of 35 shots in Wednesday's 6-5 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
The Kings' defense wasn't up to par when the Golden Knights' top players were on the ice. Forsberg did what he could, and he got enough support to guide the game to a shootout, where he stopped two of three attempts to claim the win. The 32-year-old netminder should continue to fill the backup role, though it's not clear when he'll get his next start, as the Kings don't have another back-to-back in the next week.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Getting start in Vegas
Forsberg will guard the road goal versus the Golden Knights on Wednesday, Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period reports.
Forsberg will get the second half of the Kings' back-to-back set to open the season. Darcy Kuemper was in net for a 4-1 loss to the Avalanche on Tuesday. This outing will be Forsberg's official Kings debut after he signed with the team in free agency. Given that Los Angeles has two veteran goalies, expect Forsberg to start at least once in every back-to-back set as well as some additional times throughout the year to keep Kuemper fresh.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Starting Thursday
Forsberg will protect the road goal versus the Mammoth in Thursday's preseason game, Jared Shafran of LA Kings Insider reports.
Forsberg stopped 32 of 33 shots in his preseason debut versus Vegas on Sept. 23. The 32-year-old netminder will slot in as the Kings' backup goalie, but he shouldn't have to wait long for his first start of the season, as the Kings host the Avalanche on Tuesday and visit the Golden Knights on Wednesday to begin the regular season.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: In goal versus Vegas
Forsberg will protect the road goal in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Golden Knights, Jared Shafran of LA Kings Insider reports.
Forsberg will take a turn in the crease as he prepares to handle the backup role behind Darcy Kuemper in 2025-26. The 32-year-old Forsberg went 11-12-3 with a 2.72 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 30 regular-season games with the Senators last year, and his workload should be fairly similar in his first season with the Kings.

Kings' Anton Forsberg: Signs two-year pact
Forsberg inked a two-year, $4.5 million contract with Los Angeles on Tuesday.
Forsberg will enter training camp with a shot at unseating Pheonix Copley as the No. 2 option behind Darcy Kuemper. With the Senators last season, the 32-year-old Forsberg played in 30 games, posting an 11-12-3 record, career-best 2.72 GAA and three shutouts. Forsberg should see similar usage in 2025-26, limiting his fantasy value as long as Kuemper stays healthy.

Senators' Anton Forsberg: Drops OT decision to Chicago
Forsberg saved 12 of 16 shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blackhawks.
While he kept Chicago off the scoresheet for the rest of regulation after the 2:24 mark in the second period, the Ottawa netminder allowed the game-winning tally 48 seconds into overtime. The 32-year-old Forsberg will probably wrap up the regular season with an 11-12-3 record, a 3.72 GAA and a .901 save percentage in 30 appearances. Even though Forsberg ended with a tough performance, he improved his GAA and save percentage by a sizable margin in 2024-25 from his previous campaign.

Senators' Anton Forsberg: Gets starting nod Tuesday
Forsberg will be between the pipes at home against the Blackhawks on Tuesday, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
Forsberg has gone 2-1-0 in his last three outings while posting a 2.64 GAA. While the 32-year-old netminder has been splitting the workload of late with Linus Ullmark, Forsberg figures to be a permanent fixture at the end of the bench once the postseason starts. As such, Forsberg could be making his final appearance of the 2024-25 campaign.
