  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Battled brilliantly in loss

    Markstrom made 37 saves in a 4-3 overtime loss to Toronto on Thursday.

    The Leafs tend to come in waves, and that's exactly what happened Thursday. Markstrom was magnificent at the time, but so were Auston Matthews and William Nylander, who each had two goals. He's been battling since the end of 2024, delivering a 2-2-3 record in his last seven starts. The Devils had a few breakdowns that cost them Thursday, and Markstrom paid the price. Still, the netminder is a great fantasy play with a sparkling 2.40 GAA, fifth-best in the NHL.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Expected to face Toronto

    Markstrom is set to start on the road against Toronto on Thursday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

    Markstrom is 21-8-4 with a 2.15 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 33 starts in 2024-25. He's continued to succeed recently, stopping 101 of 109 shots (.927 save percentage) over his past four starts, though New Jersey struggled to provide him with adequate offense, resulting in Markstrom posting a 2-0-2 record during that stretch. Toronto ranks 13th in goals per game with 3.02.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Stops 27 shots Tuesday

    Markstrom stopped 27 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Panthers.

    Markstrom played at an elite level in December, going 8-1-1 with a 1.30 GAA and a .937 save percentage across 10 appearances, but his numbers have regressed a bit in recent weeks. He's gone 2-1-2 with a 2.13 GAA and a .917 save percentage in five January appearances. That said, even with the regression, Markstrom remains an excellent fantasy alternative across all formats. The Devils are playing three games over the next five days, though, so it wouldn't be surprising if Markstrom gets some much-needed rest in the coming days after starting five games in a row.

Florida ranks ninth in the league with 3.25 goals per game in 2024-25 and lost 4-3 to Philadelphia on Monday.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Brilliant performance in win

    Markstrom made 23 saves in a 3-2 overtime win over the Lightning on Saturday.

    Markstrom was sharp -- he made a highlight-reel save on Brayden Point in the third period when he stretched out in desperation with his left arm to make the stop. It preserved the Devils' lead at the time. Markstrom sits fourth in the NHL with a 2.19 GAA and top-13 in save percentage (.911). He's tied with Jake Oettinger for second in wins (21). As expected, Markstrom has been superb in his first campaign with New Jersey.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Falls to Blueshirts in OT

    Markstrom turned aside 29 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers.

    He put on a goaltending clinic with Igor Shesterkin in a scoreless third period to preserve a 2-2 tie, but Markstrom had little chance in OT of stopping Sam Carrick from converting a 2-on-1 rush. Markstrom hasn't allowed more than three goals in a start since Nov. 29, going 9-2-2 over his last 13 outings with a dazzling 1.61 GAA and .927 save percentage.

    Markstrom will patrol the crease on the road versus the Rangers on Thursday, Catherine Bogart of the Devils' official site reports.

    Markstrom has conceded two or fewer goals in 10 of his last 12 outings, posting a 9-2-1 record, 1.50 GAA and two shutouts over that stretch. With no back-to-backs on the short-term schedule, the 34-year-old Markstrom could be called into action for each of the next four contests with Jake Allen firmly entrenched in the No. 2 role.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Solid display between pipes

    Markstrom stopped 21 of 23 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.

    Markstrom bounced back from two straight road losses, against Anaheim and San Jose, and he recorded his seventh win over his last nine appearances. He's gone 7-2-0 with an elite 1.46 GAA and a pristine .927 save percentage in that span, so fantasy managers should continue to trust the 34-year-old netminder.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Starting in Seattle

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Sunk by last-minute goal

    Markstrom made 21 saves in a 3-2 loss to the Sharks on Saturday.

    Markstrom has lost two in a row, but he remains third in the NHL with a sparkling 2.18 GAA and second in wins (19). His team wasn't great in front of him, and there were some unlucky bounces off the officials that contributed to San Jose's goals. Plus the winning goal went in with just 25 seconds left in the third period. Markstrom will leave this behind him and be dialed in next time out.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Victorious on home ice

    Markstrom stopped 29 of 31 shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.

    Markstrom allowed two goals at even strength in Friday's win but was fantastic overall against a high-powered offense. The Swedish netminder has posted six consecutive victories. The 34-year-old is 8-0-1 in December and has turned aside 171 of 181 shots on goal in that span. Markstrom has a 19-6-2 record, a .914 save percentage and a 2.11 GAA through 27 appearances. Markstrom trails only Connor Hellebuyck for the league lead in wins (22). Jake Allen will most likely draw the road start in the second half of the home-and-home set with Carolina on Saturday.

The Hurricanes will be a challenging matchup, as they are fifth in NHL scoring, averaging 3.47 goals per game.

  • Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Records second consecutive shutout

    Markstrom turned aside all 12 shots he faced in Monday's 5-0 win over the Rangers.

    Markstrom entered Monday's matchup on a four-game winning streak, and he'll head into the NHL's Christmas break having recorded back-to-back shutouts for the first time since the 2021-22 campaign. The 34-year-old hasn't been tested much over the last two matchups -- he's faced a total of just 24 shots -- but that shouldn't take away from the dominant stretch he's had recently, as he's posted a .960 save percentage during his current five-game winning streak.
