Anton Forsberg

Forsberg turned aside 32 shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Flyers. The 29-year-old couldn't drag the Senators into the playoffs, but he still helped stabilize the team's situation in the crease, going 7-3-1 in April despite a 3.07 GAA and .912 save percentage. Forsberg's career-high 22 wins on the season could give him a leg up on the No. 1 job heading into 2022-23, as might the three-year contract extension he signed in March.

Forsberg will protect the road crease for Friday's season finale against the Flyers, Matt Tidcombe of NHL.com reports. Forsberg will have a nice opportunity to finish the season on a high note, as the Senators have won four of their last five games while the Flyers have dropped eight of their last 10. The Swede earned a three-year extension with Ottawa midseason with a strong campaign that's seen him go 21-17-4 with a 2.84 GAA and .916 save percentage behind a rebuilding lineup that could be starting to turn the corner heading into next season.

Forsberg allowed four goals on 37 shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Devils. Ottawa never trailed, but the pesky Devils were able to hang around and erase a two-goal deficit in the third period. For the second game in a row, Forsberg allowed four goals but ultimately came away victorious. With Ottawa's young forward corps healthy and clicking, the Swedish netminder finally has some room for error after needing to be near-perfect to win for much of the season.

Forsberg will tend the twine at home against New Jersey on Tuesday. In addition to Tuesday's contest, Forsberg figures to start one game of the Senators' season-end back-to-back versus Florida and Philadelphia on Thursday and Friday, respectively. The 29-year-old netminder has set new career highs in games (44), wins (20) and save percentage (.917) this season. While Matt Murray (upper body) should still be in contention, Forsberg figures to be in the mix for the starting job heading into the 2022-23 campaign.

Forsberg made 44 saves in a 6-4 win over Montreal on Saturday. The game didn't have much structure, so both Forsberg and opponent Carey Price were at the mercy of the game's swings. Forsberg came out on top despite giving up four goals on the night. He's delivered a strong .917 save percentage and 20-17-4 record in 42 starts this year, but has wobbled with 12 goals allowed in his last three starts (1-1-1). Forsberg is a less than reliable option as the season closes.

Forsberg will defend the blue paint during Saturday's home game versus the Canadiens, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports. Forsberg wasn't great in his last start Monday against Montreal, surrendering three goals on 28 shots en route to a 4-2 defeat. He'll try to return to the win column in a home matchup with a Montreal team that's 10-22-7 on the road this year.

Forsberg will start against the Kraken on the road Monday. Forsberg has given up three or more goals in four of his last seven contests but has still managed to register a 4-2-1 record and .911 save percentage over that stretch. The Swede will hit the open market this offseason as an unrestricted free agent unless the Senators can get him to sign on the dotted line before July 1.

Forsberg allowed three goals on 28 shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken. The fourth goal was an empty-netter. Forsberg made some big saves in the contest, but he allowed a Victor Rask shot to squeak in under his arm late in the second period. That goal was the difference in a game where the Senators only put 14 shots on net versus Chris Driedger. Forsberg continues to struggle playing with a lead, but he's put together a solid campaign on a bad team with a 19-17-4 record, a 2.79 GAA and a .917 save percentage in 43 outings. The Senators' road trip continues Tuesday in Vancouver, but Filip Gustavsson seems likely to get that start.

Forsberg made 36 saves in a 5-4 overtime loss to Toronto on Saturday. It was a bit of a rough go for Forsberg -- the Leafs never led until they won it in overtime. Despite his strong performance in 2022, Forsberg just couldn't brick up the net to preserve any lead. Looking forward, you need to keep his name on a little cheat sheet for 2022-23. Forsberg has delivered a top-five save percentage since the calendar flipped at New Year's, and he could surprise next season.

Forsberg will start Saturday's home game versus the Maple Leafs, per the NHL media site. Forsberg has allowed just three goals in his last two starts, both wins. He'll have a particularly tough challenge Saturday against the Maple Leafs, who have scored 28 goals in their last six games.

Forsberg made 40 saves in a 3-2 win over the Bruins on Thursday. He gave up two in the first, but bricked things up the rest of the way to help carry his squad to the win. Forsberg has won two straight games and only allowed three goals across two games. The Sens are pushing the pace as games start to come to a regular-season close, which pushes Forsberg into a more favorable position in daily formats.

Forsberg will patrol the crease during Thursday's road game versus the Bruins, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports. Forsberg was sharp in his last start Tuesday against Detroit, turning aside 24 of 25 shots en route to a 4-1 win. He'll attempt to pick up a second straight victory in a road matchup with a slumping Boston team that's lost three of its last four games.

Forsberg made 24 saves in a 4-1 victory in Detroit on Tuesday. The only puck that got past him came at 12:27 of the second when Tyler Bertuzzi scored a power-play marker from the right side of the net after a rebound off the end boards. Forsberg is 3-2-0 in his last five starts and has been much better on the road (2 47 GAA and .923 save percentage) than at home. He's just 3.08 and .911 in his own barn. Forsberg's splits can help guide you with spot starts over the last few weeks.

Forsberg will guard the road goal during Tuesday's matchup with the Red Wings, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports. Forsberg struggled a bit in his last start Saturday against the Rangers, surrendering five goals on 33 shots en route to a 5-1 defeat.

Forsberg will guard the road goal during Saturday's matchup with the Rangers, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports. Forsberg was decent in his last start Thursday versus Nashville, stopping 31 of 34 shots, but he still came away with a loss due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. He'll try to get back in the win column in a tough road matchup with a Rangers team that's 23-7-4 at home this year.

Forsberg allowed five goals on 33 shots in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers. Auston Watson put Ottawa up 1-0 just 2:22 in, but it was all Rangers after that. New York tied it up later in the first and broke it open with three unanswered goals in the second before adding another against Forsberg in the third. Two of the five goals against Forsberg came off the stick of Chris Kreider, who raised his season goal total to 49.

Forsberg will get the starting nod at home versus Nashville on Thursday. Forsberg has won in two straight games but against teams in Montreal and Detroit that won't be making the playoffs. In his previous matchup with Nashville, the netminder gave up three goals on 31 shots in a losing effort. With a back-to-back on the schedule against the Rangers and Jets on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, Forsberg should split those contests with Mads Sogaard.
