Filip Gustavsson - NHL News & Rumors

Leaves game late Gustavsson exited Thursday's game versus the Avalanche late in the third period after getting ill in his crease, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

Impact Prior to his exit, Gustavsson stopped 44 of 45 shots in what was ultimately a winning effort. It's all the more impressive that he was able to play that well at less than 100 percent health. The goalie will likely be on the bench Friday versus the Mammoth, as Jesper Wallstedt seems likely to get the nod in the second half of a back-to-back set.

Set to start Thursday Gustavsson will start Thursday's road game against Colorado, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

Impact Gustavsson saw some playing time for Sweden at the 2026 Winter Olympics, but he'll draw the start in Minnesota's first game following the layoff. Over his seven starts leading up to the Olympic break, he went 6-0-1 with a 3.19 GAA and .888 save percentage.

Falls to Finland Gustavsson stopped 20 of 23 shots in Sweden's 4-1 loss to Finland on Friday in Olympic round-robin action, with Finland's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact The 27-year-old netminder got out-played by Juuse Saros in the other crease, but Gustavsson also didn't get a lot of support as Sweden's only goal was scored by Rasmus Dahlin on a second-period power play. After allowing five goals on 45 shots in his first two Olympic outings, Gustavsson will get a breather Saturday against Slovakia, with Jacob Markstrom or Jesper Wallstedt expected to be between the pipes.

Facing Finland Gustavsson will draw the starting assignment for Sweden against Finland on Friday at the 2026 Winter Olympics, per Ethan Sears of the New York Post.

Impact Gustavsson will make his second straight start for Sweden, allowing two goals on 22 shots in a 5-2 victory over Italy on Wednesday. The 27-year-old netminder is 20-9-6 with a 2.64 GAA and a .906 save percentage over 36 games this season for the Wild. The Finns have their backs against the wall after dropping a 4-1 decision to Slovakia on Wednesday.

Cruises to win over Italy Gustavsson made 20 saves in Sweden's 5-2 win over Italy in Olympic round-robin play Wednesday.

Impact The game was surprisingly close through two periods despite an overwhelming shot advantage for Sweden, but the favorites pulled away in the third and wound up out-shooting Italy 59-22. Gustavsson appears set as the No. 1 netminder for Sweden, and coach Sam Hallam indicated he would be between the pipes again Friday against Finland, with either Jacob Markstrom or Gustavsson's teammate with the Wild, Jesper Wallstedt, getting the nod Saturday versus Slovakia.

Expected to start Wednesday Contrary to a previous report, Gustavsson is expected to start for Sweden against Italy on Wednesday at the 2026 Winter Olympics, per Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press.

Impact Jacob Markstrom initially looked like he would get the start, but it now seems he'll serve as the understudy. Gustavsson has a 20-9-6 record, 2.64 GAA and .906 save percentage in 36 outings with Minnesota in 2025-26. The 27-year-old Gustavsson is set to face the host nation. However, Italy doesn't include any players who are presently on an NHL roster, and the Italians are regarded as heavy underdogs going into this match.

Gives up five goals Gustavsson stopped 30 of 35 shots in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Predators.

Impact Gustavsson didn't have his best performance in this contest, but at least he managed to extend his undefeated streak in regulation to nine games, going 6-0-2 with a 3.15 GAA and an .888 save percentage over that span. Gustavsson should remain as the Wild's No. 1 goaltender once the league resumes following the Olympics break, with a tough road matchup against the Avalanche on Feb. 26 as his first test.

Defending cage versus Preds Gustavsson will patrol the crease on the road against Nashville on Wednesday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

Impact Gustavsson is undefeated in regulation over his last eight outings, posting a 5-0-2 record, 2.94 GAA and .894 save percentage. With his decent run of games of late, the backstop has a decent chance of being named the starter for Sweden ahead of the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Hangs on for comeback win Gustavsson turned aside 17 of 20 shots on goal in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canadiens.

Impact Even after giving up three consecutive goals, one in each period, Gustavsson defended well when it mattered most, allowing the Wild to score the game-tying goal in the third before Kirill Kaprizov lasered the game-winner. With the win, Gustavsson now holds a 19-9-6 record, a 2.58 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 35 appearances this season. The 27-year-old goaltender has managed to earn the Wild at least one point in each of his last six starts with a 5-0-1 record despite posting numbers below his season average in that span. If he could play a tad sharper, similar to his 13-game span with a 10-1-2 record that he took from mid-November into the new year, he could elevate his fantasy value to the next level behind an elite Minnesota offense. With Jesper Wallstedt (illness) missing Monday's game, Gustavsson will have a strong chance to draw his second consecutive start in Wednesday's road clash against the Predators.

Impact Gustavsson got the night off Saturday against Edmonton, but he'll return to the crease two days later. Across his last five starts, he's gone 4-0-1 with a 2.95 GAA and .901 save percentage, with three of those victories coming in overtime. The Canadiens are scoring 3.44 goals per game this year, which ranks fourth in the NHL.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Cruises to win Thursday Gustavsson stopped 29 of 30 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Flames.

Impact Gustavsson had an easy matchup on paper, as the Flames entered Thursday's game ranking 31st in the NHL in goals scored per game, so he didn't have problems cruising to a victory. Gustavsson has lost in regulation just once in nine January appearances, going 5-1-2 with a 2.86 GAA and a .903 save percentage in that stretch.
