Cal Petersen Fantasy Stats

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Cal Petersen has cleared waivers, paving a path for a demotion to the American Hockey League's Lehigh Valley Phantoms. The 29-year-old started Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins but was shelled for seven goals on 32 shots (.781 save percentage) while taking the loss. It was just the fifth appearance (fourth start) of the season in the NHL for the former Los Angeles Kings netminder as he sports a 3.90 goals-against average and an .864 save percentage, going 2-2-0 in the process. He has posted a 3.26 GAA and .890 Sv% across 15 games with the Phantoms, as well. Once a highly-regarded netminder, Petersen scuffled to a 3.75 GAA and .868 Sv% in 10 games with the Kings last season while spending the majority of the campaign with the AHL's Ontario Reign.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Calvin Petersen was placed on waivers Wednesday. This is a very surprising move from the team, considering that Petersen has only just started the first season of a three-year deal worth $15 million, but his $5 million cap hit makes it very unlikely that somebody claims him. Petersen earned the nice contact with a couple of strong seasons, but he has had a miserable time in 2022-23 and the move comes after the 28-year-old allowed four goals on 16 shots in a relief effort against Seattle Tuesday night. His record at 5-3-2 isn't too bad, but Petersen has a horrible 3.75 goals-against average and a .868 save percentage. It looks like Petersen could now be set for a stint in the AHL, with the Kings hoping that maybe he rediscovers some of his old form.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Calvin Petersen is considered day-to-day after he exited Monday's preseason game against Vegas with a lower-body injury. Petersen started the game but left after the opening period. He allowed one goal on 11 shots in an eventual 2-1 overtime victory. Pheonix Copley impressed after taking over from Petersen, saving all 30 shots he faced. Kings head coach Todd McLellan suggested after the game that Petersen was pulled only because it was a preseason game, which is great news for fantasy managers, although him being completely healthy would be even better. The 27-year-old had a strong campaign last year with a 20-14-2 record and he should get his fair share of starts again in 2022-23.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Calvin Petersen didn't allow anything past him Thursday night against San Jose, leading the team to a 3-0 victory with 29 saves. The 27-year-old bagged his third shutout of the season and will continue the campaign with a 17-9-1 record. The Kings look like a playoff team again and Petersen has played a big part in it with a 2.60 goals-against average and a .904 save percentage. Jonathan Quick is having a nice bounce-back year as well and head coach Todd McLellan has confidently rotated his goalies all season. McLellan rarely goes with the same guy between the pipes in two consecutive games, so it seems likely that Quick gets the next one on Saturday against Vegas.

The Los Angeles Kings have put pen to paper on a new three-year, $15 million contract extension with goaltender Cal Petersen on Wednesday. The 26-year-old, who is set to close out his current three-year, $2.575 million deal in 2021-2022, is coming off a strong season in which he posted a 2.89 goals-against average and a .911 save percentage in 35 appearances. With his new extension now in place, it is expected that Petersen will likely take the reigns from Jonathan Quick as the starting netminder in Los Angeles this season. As a result, the Iowa native could provide sneaky value toward the back-end of fantasy drafts this fall.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen will record his 30th start of the season in Saturday's clash against Colorado. The 26-year-old has impressed this season, but he boasts a lowly 9-16-4 record ahead of the encounter. Petersen has posted a 2.81 goals-against average with a .915 save percentage. He also played in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Avalanche and has now been defeated in all four meetings with the West Division powerhouse this season. Colorado goes with Jonas Johansson, who is 3-6-2 for the year.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen takes on the Arizona Coyotes in his 20th start of the season on Monday. He beat the Coyotes in his only previous start in the matchup this term, but the 26-year-old has only seven total wins for the season, despite posting a solid 2.49 goals-against average with a .926 save percentage. The Kings simply don't score enough goals to reward their goalies for good work. They also tend to give up a lot of shots, which makes it even harder for Petersen and Jonathan Quick. Petersen has faced over 40 shots twice in his past four starts, so he can get you saves but won't provide many wins.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen has earned the nod for the 18th time this season for Wednesday's battle with the Golden Knights. He sits on only six wins for the year but has been rock-solid with his work, recording a 2.54 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage. Petersen is carrying some good form ahead of the meeting with two wins in his past three games, but the Kings have only one win in five games versus Vegas this season, so it's an ugly matchup for the Waterloo, Iowa native.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen is the team's starter for Wednesday's matchup against San Jose. The 26-year-old is going for a third straight victory after producing a pair of impressive displays against St. Louis and Vegas. Petersen is 6-6-4 for the season with a 2.45 goals-against average and a .926 save percentage. The Kings are looking much stronger with him between the pipes instead of Jonathan Quick, and they will try to avenge a 2-1 loss suffered against San Jose on Monday.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen will be the man between the pipes for the Blues' visit on Wednesday. The 26-year-old will try and put a stop to a five-game losing streak. Petersen has only four wins from 14 starts this season, but his work has been top-notch with him registering a 2.64 goals-against average and a .921 save percentage. St. Louis has gone cold lately with four straight defeats, so Petersen and the Kings catch them at a good time, although a victory is far from guaranteed with L.A. going through a rough patch as well.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen will make his third consecutive start on Thursday against the Sharks. The 26-year-old carries a poor 1-4-1 record for the season and has taken four L's on the bounce, but his save percentage stands strong at .925 and his goals-against average isn't bad either at 2.56. Jonathan Quick, who is 2-2-2 for the year, has done much worse with .887 and 4.05, so the Kings are riding the hot hand. Drew Doughty (undisclosed), who left Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to San Jose, is OK for the game, which is a boost for Petersen and the Kings, but following the result in this week's first matchup, the Sharks have now won eight of the last 11 meetings between the two, so Petersen isn't in a good spot to improve his record.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Calvin Petersen looks set for a second consecutive start on Tuesday against San Jose. The 26-year-old had 29 saves in Sunday's 4-3 loss to Vegas, which dropped his record for the year to 1-4-0. Petersen hasn't seen many wins, but he has produced a solid 2.52 goals-against average and a good .925 save percentage. With that said, the team is on a four-game slide and has managed only three wins all season, so Petersen is a risky choice for Tuesday's action.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen made 32 saves in a 2-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday. The Waterloo, Iowa native earned his first win of the season. Petersen has started three games this season for Los Angeles, posting a 1-2-0 record. On Tuesday, Petersen was brilliant in the third period, having to fend off 13 shots between the pipes. The 26-year-old netminder now has a career regular-season record of 11-9-1. The Kings have won three of their last four games, heading in to a Thursday rematch with the Wild.

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Cal Petersen will likely get the nod for Saturday's game against St. Louis, which will mark his second start of the season. He suffered a 3-2 loss to Colorado in his first start earlier in the week, posting 21 saves. Petersen has done well in his young career so far with a 10-8-1 record, a 2.64 goals-against average and a .921 save percentage, but he's still an inexperienced goalie, and it's a very tough matchup for him against the 2019 Stanley Cup champs.
