Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Bounces back for win
Dostal stopped 18 of 21 shots in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Dostal continues to alternate wins and losses. He was pulled after the first period of Game 3 but bounced back Sunday in Game 4. Dostal is now 6-4 with a 3.42 GAA and an .874 save percentage over 10 playoff contests. While his Game 4 performance wasn't all that impressive, it should be enough for the 25-year-old to get the nod on the road in Game 5.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine Sunday
Dostal will protect the home net in Game 4 against Vegas on Sunday, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Dostal got the hook from Friday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 3. He allowed three goals on only eight shots in the defeat, and Ville Husso was between the pipes for the Ducks after the first intermission. Dostal has a 5-4 record this postseason, stopping 184 of the 210 shots he has faced.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Pulled after one period
Dostal stopped five of eight shots in the first period of Friday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Dostal was replaced by Ville Husso at the start of the second period. This was the second time Dostal's been pulled from a contest this postseason -- he also got the hook in Game 5 of the first round against the Oilers. Head coach Joel Quenneville was noncommittal about his goalie choice for Sunday's Game 4 in his postgame comments, per Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune, so it is questionable if Dostal will get a chance to bounce back from this outing.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Starting again Friday
Dostal will guard the home goal versus the Golden Knights in Game 3 on Friday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Dostal came within seconds of a shutout in his last outing, stopping 21 of 22 shots in Game 2. The 25-year-old netminder has alternated wins and losses over the last four games, but he had a three-game winning streak during the first round against the Oilers. Dostal has gone three games without allowing more than two goals in a contest.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Denied shutout in last seconds
Dostal stopped 21 of 22 shots in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Dostal continues to trend in the right direction -- he's now allowed two goals or fewer in three straight games. He's given up five tallies on 70 shots in that span. It could have been even better for him Wednesday, but Mark Stone's power-play tally just before time expired in the third period denied Dostal a shutout. This second-round series is now tied at 1-1, and Dostal will likely be between the pipes again as the action shifts to Anaheim for Game 3 on Friday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Slated to start in Game 2
Dostal is expected to start on the road against Vegas in Game 2 on Wednesday, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.
Dostal has a 4-3 record, 3.59 GAA and .878 save percentage in seven playoff outings this year. He held his own in the second-round opener, stopping 19 of 21 shots, but a lack of offensive support resulted in a 3-1 loss for Anaheim. Vegas has been tough to contain so far in the playoffs, averaging 3.71 goals per game.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Gives up two goals
Dostal stopped 19 of 21 shots in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals. The third goal was an empty-netter with six seconds left in the game.
Dostal couldn't do much in the two goals he allowed, and by the time the Golden Knights added a third one, he was already on the bench. Despite the loss, Dostal continues to deliver solid performances for a Ducks defense that ranked fourth-worst in the regular season in goals allowed (288). He has posted a save percentage above the .900 mark in his last two starts, which is a massive uptick compared to his previous playoff performances.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine Monday
Dostal will be between the road pipes in Game 1 against the Golden Knights on Monday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal's ratios during the first round against the Oilers weren't great; he posted a 3.87 GAA and .874 save percentage, but he still managed to get the necessary four victories in six games. In the playoffs, the Ducks have averaged 4.33 goals per game, which is second-most in the league, so the netminder doesn't need to be perfect thanks to the quality offense around him.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Saves best game for clincher
Dostal stopped 25 of 27 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Oilers in Game 6.
Dostal brought his best performance of the series to close out the Oilers. This was the first time in six playoff games he avoided giving up three goals. The 25-year-old netminder is locked in as the Ducks' top goalie, and he'll have a little extra time to rest while the Golden Knights and Mammoth wrap up their first-round series to determine who the Ducks face in the second round.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: In goal Thursday
Dostal will get the starting nod at home for Game 6 versus the Oilers on Thursday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Despite getting pulled in Game 5 after giving up three goals on nine shots, Dostal will be back in the crease for a chance to close out the Oilers in Game 6. In the playoffs, the Czech backstop is 3-2-0 with a 4.32 GAA and .864 save percentage after giving up at least three goals in all five appearances.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Chased early in Game 5
Dostal stopped six of nine shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.
The Ducks got blitzed in the first period, leading to head coach Joel Quenneville pulling Dostal after the third goal in an effort to light a spark under his team. While no comeback materialized, Dostal ended up getting some rest that should allow him to be fresher for Thursday's Game 6 in Anaheim. He's 3-2 with 18 goals allowed on 132 shots over five games this postseason, so Dostal represents a high-risk option for fantasy managers who want to turn to him moving forward.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Guarding cage Tuesday
Dostal will patrol the crease on the road in Game 5 against the Oilers on Tuesday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal has given up three or more goals in each of his last six outings, posting a 3-2-1 record, 3.65 GAA and .870 save percentage along the way. While those ratios aren't great, all three of those wins came in the postseason, giving the Ducks a 3-1 series lead.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Overcomes rough first period
Dostal stopped 24 of 27 shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Oilers in Game 4.
The Oilers scored the first two goals of the game, but Dostal was able to settle in after that, giving up just one more goal to Evan Bouchard in the third. This was the first time in the series Dostal held Edmonton to fewer than four goals, and the effort was enough to put the Ducks up 3-1 in the series. Dostal has stopped 107 of 122 shots in total for an .877 save percentage in the series. Still, he has outplayed the Oilers' goaltenders, and it will likely be Dostal between the pipes Tuesday in Game 5 with a chance to knock out the two-time defending Western Conference champions.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Getting start Sunday
Dostal will get the start Sunday in Game 4 against the Oilers, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Dostal has allowed four goals in each of the first three games of this series, but the Ducks have provided him with plenty of goal support to take a 2-1 series lead. Expanding the time frame, the 25-year-old has allowed at least three goals in 10 of his last 11 starts. Dostal has a 4.05 GAA and an .874 save percentage in his first taste of postseason action.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Holds on for win
Dostal stopped 20 of 24 shots in Friday's 7-4 win over the Oilers in Game 3.
A four-goal third period by the Ducks gave Dostal enough breathing room to get his second straight win. This has been the first-round series to watch for fans of offense -- the two teams have combined for 28 goals across three games. Dostal hasn't been great, but he's been consistent, allowing four goals in each contest so far, giving up 12 tallies on 95 shots. As long as the results go his way, he's likely to remain between the pipes, so look for him to get the nod in Game 4 on Sunday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Getting start in Game 3
Dostal will protect the home goal in Game 3 on Friday versus the Oilers, Patrick Present of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal stopped 33 of 37 shots in the Ducks' Game 2 win to tie the series at 1-1. The 25-year-old netminder is locked in as the Ducks' starter, and it would seemingly take an injury or an extremely poor sequence of games for Ville Husso to get a look in the playoffs.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Evens series in Game 2
Dostal stopped 33 of 37 shots in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Oilers in Game 2.
The Oilers rarely let the Ducks get much breathing room, but Dostal was able to protect a lead over the last five minutes of the game. This was Dostal's second career playoff game and first win, though he has allowed eight goals on 71 shots over the first two contests of this series. Still, he's unlikely to get bumped from the No. 1 job in goal, especially if the Ducks can give him enough support to keep things close. Game 3 is in Anaheim on Friday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Set to face Edmonton
Dostal is expected to start on the road against Edmonton in Game 2 on Wednesday, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.
Dostal stopped 30 of 34 shots in a 4-3 loss to Edmonton in Game 1 on Monday. The 25-year-old also struggled at the end of the regular season, going 2-5-1 with a 3.63 GAA and an .857 save percentage across his final eight appearances. He'll attempt to rebound Wednesday, but it will be difficult against the Oilers, who ranked sixth in goals per game during the regular season with an average of 3.44.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Beaten four times in Game 1
Dostal stopped 30 of 34 shots in Monday's 4-3 loss against the Oilers in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series.
Dostal ended the regular season on a sour note after posting a save percentage below .900 in five of his last six starts, and that trend continued in this playoff opener. Dostal has a daunting task ahead of him, though, as the Oilers were among the best offenses in the league in the regular season and also welcomed Leon Draisaitl back from a lower-body injury that forced him to sit out the final 14 games of the regular season. Dostal should remain between the posts for Game 2 of the series Wednesday at Rogers Place.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Game 1 starter
Dostal will defend the road net against Edmonton on Monday in Game 1, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.
Dostal posted a 30-20-4 record with a 3.10 GAA and an .888 save percentage in 56 appearances during the 2025-26 regular season. In two outings against the Oilers over that time, he allowed eight goals on 60 shots en route to a 1-1-0 record.
