First off Tuesday Korpisalo was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, according to Eric Russo of the Bruins' official site, indicating he will patrol the home crease Tuesday versus Detr...
Impact Korpisalo has won his last two outings, stopping 43 of 46 shots and earning his second shutout of 2024-25. He has a 5-2-1 record with a 2.45 GAA and a .907 save percentage through nine appearances this season. Detroit ranks 25th in the league with 2.63 goals per game this campaign.

Strong November continues Korpisalo stopped 21 shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Impact Korpisalo came up big in the third period, turning aside all 10 shots he faced as the Bruins broke open a 3-3 tie. The veteran netminder hasn't taken a regulation loss in November, going 4-0-1 in six appearances with a dazzling 1.76 GAA and .933 save percentage, and while Boston's investment in Jeremy Swayman likely locks him into the top spot on the depth chart, Korpisalo is making a compelling case for more playing time.

Starting versus Islanders Korpisalo will protect the road goal versus the Islanders on Wednesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Impact Korpisalo earned a 1-0 shutout win over Utah in his previous start, making 22 saves. The 30-year-old will get the second half of a back-to-back after Jeremy Swayman was on the wrong end of a 2-0 result Tuesday. The Bruins have scored just eight goals over their last six games, so Korpisalo will have to be sharp and get better goal support to collect another win.

NOVEMBER 22, 2024 • NHL.COM
Second shutout in November Korpisalo made 21 saves in a 1-0 win over Utah on Thursday.
Impact It was Korpisalo's second shutout of the season and second this month. He shut out Philly in a 3-0 win on Nov. 2. Korpisalo has been quietly effective since his ugly debut in black and gold on Oct. 8 when he allowed four goals in the first period and six overall in a loss to Florida. Strip that out, and he has a 1.82 GAA and .928 save percentage (and two shutouts) in seven games. Korpisalo is a sharp daily play when he's in the twine tent.

Tending twine against Utah Korpisalo will operate as the starting goaltender during Thursday's home game against Utah, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact Korpisalo has served as the Bruins' clear No. 2 netminder in recent weeks, but he'll be between the pipes for the second time in the last three games during Thursday's matchup. He's been solid over his last two starts, posting a 1-0-1 record, 2.82 GAA and .912 save percentage.

Strong start wasted Korpisalo made 28 saves in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Blues on Saturday.
Impact The Bruins wasted a strong performance from Korpisalo, who was assumed to be the team's weakest link heading into the season. Not any more. He made a 10-bell save late in the first on a 3-on-1 shot from Brayden Schenn that kept the score 2-1 for the Bruins. His teammates struggled to contain the Blues third line, which contributed both goals and five points in regulation. Yes, the third line. He deserved better. Overall, Korpisalo is 3-2-1 in six starts with a 2.74 GAA and .901 save percentage. With this performance, Korpisalo may have earned Monday's start in Columbus.

Tending twine Saturday Korpisalo will protect the home net Saturday versus the Blues, per Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Impact Korpisalo has won his last two outings, stopping 54 of 57 shots and earning a shutout. He has a 3-2-0 record with a 2.72 GAA and a .900 save percentage through six appearances this season. St. Louis ranks 27th in the league with 2.53 goals per game in 2024-25.

Hangs on for OT win Korpisalo turned aside 34 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Flames.
Impact The Bruins seemed to have the game under control through two periods and took a 3-1 lead into the third, but Korpisalo gave up tallies to Yegor Sharangovich and Nazem Kadri before sweating out the final 10 minutes of regulation just to earn an OT point. The veteran netminder has started three of the last six games as Jeremy Swayman struggles under the weight of his new contract and elevated expectations, and in seven appearances overall Korpisalo has a 3-2-0 record with a 2.71 GAA and .900 save percentage.

Draws start Thursday Korpisalo will start in the home crease for Thursday's game against Calgary, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Impact Korpisalo recorded a 20-save shutout during his most recent start, which came on the road Saturday against Philadelphia, and he'll attempt to stay hot at home Thursday. Over five outings this year, he's logged a 2-2-0 record, 2.70 GAA and .894 save percentage.

Blanks Philly on Saturday Korpisalo made 20 saves in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.
Impact The veteran netminder earned his fifth career shutout with some big stops in the second period when the outcome was still in doubt. Korpisalo had a bumpy Bruins debut in the team's season opener, but since then he's allowed just six goals on 78 shots (.923 save percentage) over his last four appearances. With Jeremy Swayman struggling to live up to the big contract he signed in early October after his training-camp holdout, Korpisalo could see more work in the short term.

Joonas Korpisalo makes 20 saves as Bruins shut out Flyers 3-0
Joonas Korpisalo made 20 saves for his first shutout of the season and fifth of his career to lead the Boston Bruins to a 3-0 victory over the Philadelphia FlyersNOVEMBER 2, 2024
Starting vs. Flyers Korpisalo will guard the road net Saturday in Philadelphia, Joe Haggerty of Boston Sports Journal reports.
Impact Korpisalo appeared in relief of Jeremy Swayman on Thursday, stopping 13 of 15 shots in an eventual 8-2 loss. The 30-year-old Korpisalo has struggled in his limited playing time so far this year, going 1-2-0 with an .871 save percentage across four games. He'll look to get on track against a Flyers team that's averaging 2.73 goals per game.

Needed in relief Thursday Korpisalo turned aside 13 of 15 shots after replacing Jeremy Swayman midway through the second period of Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
Impact The Boston defense didn't give much support to either netminder, but Korpisalo took less damage to his ratios. The 30-year-old has played for four teams in the last three seasons, and it's not hard to see why Korpisalo has become a journeyman -- in four appearances for the Bruins so far in 2024-25, he's stumbled to a 3.48 GAA and .871 save percentage.

Takes hard-luck loss Korpisalo allowed a goal on 18 shots in Tuesday's 2-0 loss to the Flyers. The second goal was an empty-netter.
Impact Korpisalo was on the wrong side of a shutout, allowing the decisive goal to Tyson Foerster at 5:32 of the second period. Through three starts, Korpisalo is 1-2-0 with 10 goals allowed on 78 shots. Jeremy Swayman will likely be between the pipes Thursday versus the Hurricanes, but Korpisalo should get another chance to start soon, as the Bruins visit the Flyers on Saturday before hosting the Kraken on Sunday.

Facing Flyers Korpisalo will protect the home net Tuesday versus Philadelphia, according to Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald.
Impact During his last outing, Korpisalo stopped 22 shots in a 5-3 win over Colorado on Oct. 16 to record his first win as a member of the Bruins. He has surrendered nine goals on 60 shots through two appearances this season. Philadelphia has accounted for 26 goals over nine games in 2024-25.
OCTOBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Picks up win Wednesday Korpisalo stopped 22 of 25 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche.
Impact Korpisalo's second start with the Bruins was a noticeable improvement on his debut. All three Avalanche goals came on the power play, so Korpisalo still needs to work on being the best penalty killer on the ice as the goalie often needs to be. The 30-year-old is 1-1-0 with nine goals allowed on 60 shots through two starts. It's safe to assume Jeremy Swayman will be between the pipes for Saturday's game in Utah.
