Rangers goalie Joonas Korpisalo is week to week with a lower-body injury, AP source says

New York Rangers backup goaltender Joonas Korpisalo is week to week with a lower-body injury, a person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press

Out with lower-body injury Korpisalo sustained a lower-body injury and has been placed on injured reserve Thursday, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.

Impact Korpisalo was labeled week-to-week by the Rangers, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him back in action in the short term. Last year, the 32-year-old netminder went 14-9-6 in 31 regular-season outings with a 3.15 GAA, .894 save percentage and one shutout. With Korpisalo on the shelf, Dylan Garand has been called up to serve as the No. 2 option in New York.

Not great in shootout win Korpisalo stopped 20 of 23 shots in a 4-3 preseason shootout win over the Devils on Thursday.

Impact Korpisalo's first start of the preseason wasn't all that impressive. The veteran netminder is still the favorite to fill the backup role behind Igor Shesterkin, but Korpisalo has left the door open for Dylan Garand to make a challenge for that gig. All three goalies have started one preseason game, though it's unlikely Korpisalo will go again Friday against the Islanders. Even if he wins the competition, Korpisalo isn't in a fantasy-friendly role -- he's on a rebuilding team and trapped on the depth chart behind a star goalie.

First goalie off Thursday Korpisalo was the first goalie off during Thursday's morning skate, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports, indicating that he'll draw the home preseason start against the Devils.

Impact Korpisalo is competing for the Rangers' backup goaltending job ahead of the regular season and will draw his first preseason start Thursday. He made 31 regular-season appearances for Boston last year, going 14-9-6 with a 3.15 GAA and .894 save percentage. It seems likely that Korpisalo will win the No. 2 job over Dylan Garand, but a strong showing Thursday would help to further stake his claim on that role behind Igor Shesterkin.

Set to compete for backup role Korpisalo will have to earn the backup job ahead of Opening Night against the Bruins, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports Wednesday.

Impact Korpisalo should have the inside track to securing the No. 2 role ahead of Dylan Garand, but he is far from a lock to be on the 23-man roster when the season starts. Even if Korpisalo does win the position battle, he is unlikely to see much in the way of starts given how much of a workhorse Igor Shesterkin is. As such, Korpisalo won't offer more than middling fantasy value.

Dealt Wednesday Korpisalo was acquired by the Rangers from Boston on Wednesday in exchange for a 2028 fourth-round pick and Kalle Vaisanen.

Impact Korpisalo had a 14-9-6 record, 3.15 GAA and .894 save percentage in 31 regular-season appearances with Boston in 2025-26. He's set to serve as the No. 2 option with the Rangers behind Igor Shesterkin, and Korpisalo will probably end up with around 25-30 starts in 2026-27 if all goes as planned.

Needed in relief in Sunday's loss Korpisalo turned aside all six shots he faced after replacing Jeremy Swayman early in the third period Sunday during the Bruins' 6-1 loss to the Sabres in Game 4 of their first-rou...

Impact It was the first action of the playoffs for Korpisalo, and Sunday's result had little to do with Swayman, who was simply hung out to dry by his defense. With the Bruins facing elimination in Game 5 on Tuesday, coach Marco Sturm could give Korpisalo the start in an attempt to light a fire under his squad, but Swayman is more likely to be back between the pipes.

Earns win vs. Columbus Korpisalo stopped 33 of 35 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Korpisalo bounced back from losing back-to-back games in overtime to the Flyers and Hurricanes, and he recorded his first win since March 31, when he stopped 13 of 16 shots in a 6-3 victory over the Stars. Despite the 1-0-2 record in his last three outings, Korpisalo is ending the season on a strong note after posting a 1.93 GAA and .940 save percentage in those three contests. It remains to be seen whether Korpisalo or Jeremy Swayman will get the start in the regular-season finale against the Devils on Tuesday.
