Ilya Samsonov Returns To Vegas Crease Tuesday

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Ilya Samsonov (upper body) will return to work on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames. The Russian netminder hasn't seen any action since March 23, missing eight games due to an upper-body injury. Samsonov boasts a solid 16-9-3 record as Vegas' backup, having allowed 2.79 goals with a .892 save percentage and two shutouts. He faces the NHL's third-lowest scoring side on Tuesday. However, Vegas is without several key players and squares off against a team that's battling for a playoff spot, so Tuesday's contest will likely not be a cakewalk for Samsonov.

Ilya Samsonov Remains Out On Saturday

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Ilya Samsonov (upper body) will be unavailable on Saturday against the Calgary Flames. He continues to nurse an upper-body injury sustained during the warm-ups before last Saturday's 3-1 victory over the Nashville Predators. Samsonov's absence has come at a bad time for the Golden Knights, as the team has a back-to-back scheduled for a second consecutive weekend. Akira Schmid is the likely starter for Saturday's contest, while Adin Hill should return to the crease for Sunday's matchup against the Vancouver Canucks. Samsonov is sporting a 16-9-3 record for the season with two shutouts, a 2.79 goals-against average, and a .892 save percentage.

Ilya Samsonov Nursing An Upper-Body Injury

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Ilya Samsonov (upper body) is considered day-to-day and may not be available for Tuesday's meeting with the Edmonton Oilers. The Russian netminder was a late scratch on Saturday against the Nashville Predators when he was scheduled to start. Adin Hill ended up playing for a second consecutive day, delivering a 23-save performance in a 3-1 victory. Samsonov has put in solid work as Hill's backup all season, posting a 16-9-3 record. He has picked up two shutouts while allowing 2.79 goals with a .892 save percentage. Akira Schmid has been called up from the minors to step into the lineup on Tuesday if needed.

Ilya Samsonov Faces Lightning Sunday

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Ilya Samsonov will make his 28th start of the season in Sunday's matchup against Andrei Vasilevskiy and the Tampa Bay Lightning. This will be his third appearance of the month. Things haven't gone well recently for Samsonov, who has dropped two decisions in a row, allowing three goals in both games. He holds a 15-9-3 record for the season with a 2.81 goals-against average, a .889 save percentage, and two shutouts. While Samsonov has not been a reliable fantasy option lately, he is expected to deliver the goods on Sunday, with Vegas boasting a very good home record. Samsonov has picked up both of his shutouts this season in home outings, going 8-3-1 in 12 starts.

Ilya Samsonov Posts 31-Save Shutout On Sunday

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Ilya Samsonov stopped all 31 shots he faced en route to shutting out the Calgary Flames on Sunday evening. The Knights claimed the lead in the second frame and Samsonov was able to keep the door shut throughout. The backup goaltender is now riding a four-game win streak. Over this impressive stretch he has posted a stellar .948% SV with a 1.25 GAA. Before this span, Samsonov allowed 16 goals over his previous four starts and carried a 3.96 GAA. While the 27-year-old will continue to operate as the No.2 option behind Adin Hill, he may eventually begin to carve out a larger role given his strong play over the past month. For now, fantasy managers in standard formats should consider streaming Samsonov in favorable matchups.

Ilya Samsonov Starts Versus Kraken Saturday

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Ilya Samsonov will guard the crease in Saturday's matchup against Seattle. He'll make only his third appearance of the month as the Golden Knights have been riding Adin Hill's hot hand. Samsonov has also been successful in his most recent outings, winning four of five starts to improve his record for the season to 7-3-1. He has allowed 3.06 goals with a .897 save percentage. The Kraken have struggled on the road and go with Philipp Grubauer, who is 3-9-0 for the season, so Samsonov will be expected to keep Vegas on the winning path.

Ilya Samsonov Out On Saturday

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Ilya Samsonov (undisclosed) will not dress against Utah on Saturday. The Russian netminder is dealing with an unspecified injury. Samsonov has enjoyed a good start with Vegas, going 3-1-1. He has allowed 2.95 goals while registering a .906 save percentage. The Golden Knights have called up Akira Schmid from the minors to work as Adin Hill's backup on Saturday. Hill sits on a 4-2-0 record but has gone undefeated at home. In his last start, Hill shut out the Flames, and he has recorded a 2.75 goals-against average with a .899 save percentage in home games.

Ilya Samsonov Getting Monday's Start

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov is getting the start on Monday when the team hosts the Pittsburgh Penguins. It's the fourth start for Samsonov over the last five games as he has regained his grasp on the No. 1 starter's role from Joseph Woll with the latter largely struggling since returning from a high-ankle sprain on Feb. 29. A winner of his last four outings, Samsonov owns a 3.03 goals-against average and an .893 save percentage in 37 games on the season but is still 22-6-7. He has been far better of late, posting a 2.34 GAA and a .926 save percentage in eight March outings, going 6-1-1 in that time. The Maple Leafs sit third in the Atlantic Division with a 44-23-9 record, four points ahead of the Tampa Bay Lightning for a top-three finish in the division with a game in hand.

Ilya Samsonov Likely To Start On Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov is likely to start on Saturday against the visiting Edmonton Oilers. The Russian netminder made four straight starts before Joseph Woll started Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Washington Capitals. It's been a nice run for Samsonov after he was briefly sent to the minors earlier in the year as he sports a 2.58 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage across six games in the month of March, going 4-1-1 in that time. The overall numbers still don't look good after a disastrous start as the 27-year-old owns a 3.12 GAA and an .888 Sv% across 33 games, although he is still 18-6-7 thanks to a high-octane Maple Leafs offense.

Ilya Samsonov Good To Go Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov will be between the sticks when the team hosts Carolina on Saturday. Samsonov's status for the game was initially thrown up in the air after he was hurt during the morning skate. The Russian netminder has been in spectacular form lately, turning his season around after getting waived and dropped to the minors. Through his last 15 starts, Samsonov has gone 13-2-0, allowing two or fewer goals eight times. It's a tough matchup for Samsonov on Saturday, but it won't be easy for the Hurricanes to beat him, either.

Ilya Samsonov Extends Winning Streak

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov stopped 19-of-21 shots on goal in Monday's 4-2 victory against the Blues. Samsonov picked up his second victory over the Blues in less than a week to conclude the season series, while it was another low shot total from the opposition in the road contest. Samsonov has won four consecutive starts and should be rostered across standard formats as the 26-year-old is the clear number one option in the net at the moment.

Ilya Samsonov Earns Victory Against Blues

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov stopped 14-of-15 shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-1 victory against the Blues. The only goal surrendered by the netminder came in the second period when Blues forward Alexei Toropchenko scored at even-strength. Samsonov's 14-save performance was the fewest amount of saves required in a full start this season, while he allowed one goal or less for the fourth time throughout the campaign. Samsonov has shown positive signs since returning to the crease in the second half of January, as he has gone 5-1-0 over his previous six starts.

Ilya Samsonov Back In Goal Tuesday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov is expected to be between the pipes for Tuesday's home game versus the visiting St. Louis Blues. After starting five straight games after his recall from the minors, the Russian sat out Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Ottawa Senators. The overall numbers are subpar as Samsonov sports a 3.38 goals-against average and an .879 save percentage across 21 starts along with a 9-4-6 record on the season. However, he has largely been brilliant since a stint in the minors as he sports a .926 save percentage over his last five games, winning four of them. The Maple Leafs also announced that goaltender Martin Jones has suffered an injury and rookie Dennis Hildeby will be the backup goaltender on Tuesday.

Ilya Samsonov Back In The Crease Wednesday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov will be back between the pipes when his team takes on the visiting Dallas Stars on Wednesday. The Russian puck-stopper has been excellent since being sent to the American Hockey League for a mental break and to regain his form. Samsonov has posted a stellar .942 save percentage over his last four games, going 3-1-0 in that time. It's been a difficult season overall as he sports a 3.35 goals-against average and an .879 Sv% across 20 outings but he has been brilliant of late. The Maple Leafs have slipped into a Wild Card spot following Monday's loss to the New York Islanders while the Tampa Bay Lightning have taken over the third spot in the Atlantic Division thanks to three straight wins.

Ilya Samsonov Showing Improved Form

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov has bounced back from a horrible spell with back-to-back wins. After defeating Settle on Sunday 3-1, Samsonov played a key role in Wednesday's battle with Winnipeg, backstopping the team to a 1-0 overtime win. The 26-year-old recorded his second shutout of the season and improved to 7-3-6. Following a miserable start to the season, which culminated with Samsonov being waived on Dec. 31, the Russian netminder has found his stride. Samsonov has gone 2-1-0 with a 1.33 goals-against average and a .944 save percentage since being brought back from the AHL.

Ilya Samsonov Clears Waivers

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov cleared waivers on Monday and will report to the Toronto Marlies in the AHL. Samsonov was placed on waivers after he had another miserable outing in Friday's 6-5 overtime loss to Columbus, with six goals allowed on 21 shots. Playing in his second year in Toronto, Samsonov has managed a lowly .862 save percentage overall and sits on a 5-2-6 record with a 3.94 goals-against average. Samsonov isn't expected to play in the minors. He will work on his game with the goalie coach and the supporting staff, and the team is expected to re-evaluate him when the Maple Leafs return from their West Coast road trip, which begins on Tuesday in Los Angeles. Dennis Hildeby was called up from the AHL on Monday to replace Samsonov on the roster.

Ilya Samsonov Misses Saturday's Game With Illness

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov (illness) won't be available for Saturday's big matchup against the Bruins. The Russian netminder is battling an illness, and Joseph Woll is penciled in to make a fourth consecutive start. The 2023-24 campaign has been a bumpy one for Samsonov, as he has posted a 4-1-3 record with a 3.58 goals-against average and a .878 save percentage. Woll has outplayed him in all areas and will have another opportunity to impress on Saturday. Martin Jones has been called up from the minors to work as Woll's backup.

Ilya Samsonov Makes 27 Saves In Global Series Victory

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov stopped 27-of-29 shots on goal in Friday's 3-2 victory against the Red Wings in the 2023 NHL Global Series. Samsonov had a productive opening frame with the game scoreless early on, but he surrendered two goals in the second period with Red Wings forwards Daniel Sprong and Lucas Raymond finding the back of the net. Samsonov made timely saves in the final frame and the Maple Leafs scored three goals to pull off the comeback. Samsonov has played well in consecutive games with two goals against in each contest to show signs of improvement for fantasy managers, while the 26-year-old netminder has posted a 2-0-1 record to go along with a 3.00 goals against average and .912 save percentage through four starts in the month of November.

Ilya Samsonov Has Bounce Back Performance Against Canucks

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov got back on track as he stopped 31-of-33 shots on goal in Saturday's 5-2 victory against the Canucks. Samsonov had a performance to forget with four goals against in the first period of his most recent appearance against the Lightning, but the 26-year-old responded well and limited the Canucks to a pair of power-play goals, while making 22 even-strength saves throughout the contest. Samsonov has struggled to find consistency in the early part of the season with a 3.79 goals against average and .870 save percentage, but fantasy managers should expect better results from the netminder who put together an impressive 2022-23 campaign in his first year with the Maple Leafs.

Ilya Samsonov Gets One-Year, $3.55 Million Deal In Arbitration

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov has been awarded a one-year, $3.55 million contract in an arbitration decision. Samsonov was looking for $4.9 million at the arbitration hearing on Friday, while the Maple Leafs submitted an offer at $2.4 million. The Russian netminder, who came off a one-year, $1.8 million deal, will be heading into his second season in Toronto after enjoying a nice debut campaign. He posted a 27-10-5 record while registering a 2.33 goals-against average with a .919 save percentage and four shutouts. With a very strong team playing in front of him, Samsonov is set to remain a top goalie option next season in fantasy hockey.
