Jacob Markstrom - Page 7 - NHL News & Rumors

Allows four goals in loss Markstrom halted 31 of 35 shots on goal in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Saturday's loss ended a solid run of play for Markstrom, where he had three wins over his last four games. The 35-year-old netminder now has a 12-11-1 record with a 3.37 GAA and an .879 save percentage through 25 appearances this season. Markstrom's current numbers are on pace to be the worst of his career among full seasons. With New Jersey trending downward in the Metropolitan Division standings, the veteran netminder is a risky option across all fantasy formats unless the team can quickly find a turning point. Markstrom's next chance to bounce back is Monday in Calgary.

Comes through when needed in OT win Markstrom stopped 15 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.

Impact The veteran netminder wasn't busy, but he made some big saves when necessary, including one on Vince Dunn in OT that led directly to Nico Hischier's game-winner on the counter-attack. Markstrom has allowed more than three goals in an outing only once since the beginning of December, although it was a nine-goal disaster against the Isles on Jan. 6, and he's won three of his last four starts to push his record on the season to 12-10-1 with a 3.34 GAA and .879 save percentage.

Tending twine against Seattle Markstrom is slated to start Wednesday's home matchup against the Kraken, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.

Impact After a strong outing in Monday's 5-2 win over the Wild and with Jake Allen on a three-game losing streak, Markstrom is set to record consecutive starts for the first time since early December. While he has experienced his fair share of recent struggles, including a performance where he allowed nine goals to the Islanders on Jan. 6, he has three wins over his last six appearances. Overall, the 35-year-old netminder has an 11-10-1 record with a 3.41 GAA and an .879 save percentage across 23 games this season. He'll take on the red-hot Kraken, who have gone 7-1-2 over their last 10 games, making Markstrom's fantasy outlook for Wednesday's matchup a risky one.

Cruises to win Monday Markstrom stopped 20 shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Wild.

Impact The Devils never trailed in the game, taking the lead for good on an Ondrej Palat tally late in the second period. It was a strong bounce-back effort from Markstrom after he got shelled for nine goals by the Islanders in his last outing Jan. 6, but that disaster was the only time he's given up more than three goals since the beginning of December. Over 11 appearances during that stretch, Markstrom's gone 4-6-0 with a 3.20 GAA and .884 save percentage.

Set to start Monday Markstrom is expected to guard the road goal against Minnesota on Monday, per Kristy Flannery of The Hockey News.

Impact Markstrom will get the second half of New Jersey's back-to-back after Jake Allen plays in Sunday's road matchup against Winnipeg. The 35-year-old Markstrom surrendered nine goals on only 24 shots in Tuesday's 9-0 loss to the Islanders. He has a 10-10-1 record with a 3.48 GAA and an .878 save percentage through 22 appearances this season. Minnesota is tied for 16th in the league with 3.11 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

Concedes nine goals vs. NYI Markstrom stopped 15 of 24 shots in Tuesday's 9-0 loss to the Islanders.

Impact Markstrom has lost in the three outings he's played against the Islanders this season (0-2-1), but this was also his worst outing of the season by any imaginable measure. The Swedish netminder will look to bounce back in his next start. Since he's been splitting the workload in the Devils' crease with Jake Allen, it wouldn't be surprising if Markstrom gets his next call when facing the Jets on Sunday, Jan. 11.
