Anton Forsberg - NHL News & Rumors

On wrong side of shutout Forsberg allowed two goals on 29 shots in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to the Predators.

Impact Forsberg remains winless this season after getting no help from his teammates in this loss. He's posted a record of 0-5-1 with a 2.44 GAA and a .907 save percentage across seven outings (six starts). Darcy Kuemper isn't doing much better lately, though he has received more goal support. Forsberg should still get a decent share of playing time, but he could push for more if he's able to string some wins together. The Kings are set to host the Islanders on Thursday.

Tending twine Tuesday Forsberg will draw Tuesday's home start against the Predators, per Alexander Legget of MayorsManor.com.

Impact Forsberg is still searching for his first win of the 2026-27 season after coming up short in his most recent outing on Oct. 31. Overall, the 33-year-old netminder has an 0-4-1 record, a 2.51 GAA and a .902 save percentage across six appearances this season. Despite his lack of wins, he remains a decent spot start in deep fantasy leagues given his solid stats. He'll draw a decent matchup Tuesday against the Predators, who rank 18th in the NHL with 3.00 goals per game this season.

Stops 28 shots in narrow defeat Forsberg stopped 28 of 31 shots in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Forsberg couldn't prevent Tage Thompson's go-ahead power-play goal midway through the third period. The veteran netminder kept Los Angeles competitive after Buffalo controlled much of the early action, though the Kings ultimately suffered their fourth loss in five home games. Forsberg's fantasy value remains in the lower tiers, as inconsistent team results limit his reliability as a starting option. The fact that he's started in just six of the Kings' 13 games this season limits his upside as well and makes Forsberg a matchup-based alternative and not much else.

Slated starter Saturday Forsberg is slated to start at home against Buffalo on Saturday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Forsberg has gone 0-3-0 with a 2.38 GAA and a .902 save percentage in five appearances this season. The Kings have been limited to just a single goal in each of his past four outings. Buffalo is 6-4-3 and has averaged 3.08 goals per game this season.

Falls short in narrow loss Forsberg stopped 25 of 27 shots on net in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Blackhawks.

Impact Forsberg had another solid effort come up short in Tuesday's clash, as the Blackhawks scored one goal in each of the final two periods to complete the comeback. With Tuesday's loss, the 33-year-old netminder now has an 0-3-1 record, a 2.39 GAA and a .902 save percentage across five outings this season. While the veteran's stats are comparable to many high-level netminders across the league, he hasn't been able to close out a game yet this season, which delivers a massive blow to his fantasy stock. However, his offense has left him out to dry in each of his last three outings. If the offense can perform well in front of Forsberg in the near future, he should return to the fantasy radar in standard formats.

Starting in Chicago Forsberg will defend the road net against the Blackhawks on Tuesday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Forsberg will get the second half of the Kings' back-to-back after Darcy Kuemper played in Monday's 6-3 win over the Rangers. The 33-year-old Forsberg has stopped 76 of 85 shots in four appearances during his 0-2-1 start to the 2026-27 campaign. Chicago (3-8-0) ranks 31st in the league with 2.18 goals per game this season.

Doing his part but needs help from mates Forsberg made 23 saves Saturday in a 3-1 loss to New Jersey. He allowed two goals.

Impact The game was tight, but boring -- the Devils finally broke the 1-1 tie at 8:08 when defender Brett Pesce surprisingly toe dragged the puck past a Kings player before sliding the puck under Forsberg's left pad. And his teammates barely got to the net -- they mustered just 13 shots at Jake Allen at the other end. No Kings goalie is going to excel in a system where their teammates can't help them with offense. It was the fifth time in the team's past seven games where L.A. was held to one goal.

Set to face Devils Forsberg will guard the road goal against New Jersey on Saturday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Forsberg has allowed seven goals on 60 shots in his winless start over three outings (0-1-1) this campaign. New Jersey (6-4-0) ranks 12th in the league in the 2026-27 season with 3.30 goals per game.

Falls short against Bruins Forsberg stopped 24 of 26 shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Bruins. The last two goals were empty-netters.

Impact Forsberg put in a decent effort, but the Kings didn't give him enough help. He's now allowed seven goals on 60 shots over three appearances (two starts) this season. The light schedule hasn't helped the Kings get on track -- they've had at least two days off between each game so far. That will change as they head on the road for five games over eight games, beginning against the Capitals on Tuesday. With a back-to-back to close out the trip, Forsberg should get at least one start and likely two during the trip if Darcy Kuemper continues to struggle.

Defending crease Saturday Forsberg will protect the home net against Boston on Saturday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact During his first start of 2026-27, Forsberg allowed five goals on 25 shots in a 5-4 overtime loss to San Jose on Oct. 3. He made nine saves on nine shots in relief of Darcy Kuemper in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Edmonton. Boston (6-2-0) ranks seventh in the league this season with 3.75 goals per game.

Perfect in relief outing Forsberg stopped all nine shots he faced in relief of Darcy Kuemper in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.

Impact The only goal Edmonton scored over the final two periods was an empty-netter. Forsberg obviously didn't face a lot of traffic, but he took care of what came his way, which is better than he did in his Oct. 3 start against the Sharks. He's given up five goals on 34 shots over two outings this season. With the Kings starting the year 0-3-2, the starting job in goal is up for grabs. Their next game is at home versus the Bruins on Saturday.

Not good in overtime loss Forsberg allowed five goals on 25 shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Sharks.

Impact Forsberg got the nod for the second game of the season after Darcy Kuemper was in net for Wednesday's 8-4 loss to the Avalanche. While this wasn't as tough of a matchup, Forsberg didn't help his cause for more playing time with a shaky performance. The 33-year-old netminder could ultimately settle into a platoon if neither of the Kings' goalies can get on a roll. Los Angeles hosts the Panthers on Tuesday, which isn't exactly a favorable matchup even when Aleksander Barkov (knee) is out.
