New York Islanders goaltender Marcus Hogberg will guard the cage against the Calgary Flames on Saturday. This will be only his second start since February, as the Islanders have leaned heavily on Ilya Sorokin. Overall, Hogberg has made six starts this season, posting a 2-3-0 record with a 1.70 goals-against average and a .938 save percentage. Hogberg has been solid for the Islanders, but he struggled in his last outing, allowing three goals on 27 shots in a 4-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on March 9. Saturday's matchup is a favorable bounce-back spot for Hogberg, as the Flames have had a tough time on the road all year, going 14-14-6.
New York Islanders goaltender Marcus Hogberg (upper body) was activated from Injured Reserve on Sunday. In a corresponding move, the team returned Jakub Skarek to the AHL. Hogberg has been out for 14 games due to an upper-body injury. He may receive the starting nod on Sunday against the Anaheim Ducks after Ilya Sorokin worked Saturday's matchup against the San Jose Sharks. Hogberg owns a 2-2-0 record for the season, allowing 1.45 goals with a .947 save percentage. Semyon Varlamov (lower body) is likely to miss the remainder of the regular season, making Hogberg the primary backup to Sorokin.
New York Islanders goaltender Marcus Hogberg will guard the cage in Saturday's game against San Jose. The Islanders are going with Hogberg for this one after seeing Ilya Sorokin give up four goals on 23 shots in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Philadelphia. This will be Hogberg's fourth start of the season. He has put in impressive performances, registering a 1.42 goals-against average with a .953 save percentage despite posting a 1-2-0 record. The Sharks sit second from bottom in the league and average the fourth-fewest goals, so Hogberg is in a strong position to improve his record.
Marcus Hogberg Between The Pipes For Ottawa On Tuesday
Ottawa Senators goaltender Marcus Hogberg will mind the crease on Tuesday against the high-flying Edmonton Oilers. The Orebro, Sweden, native has struggled with a record of 0-3-0 through four games. During that time, Hogberg has allowed 15 goals and made 82 saves. He will have to be on top of his game, as the Oilers top two players, Connor McDavid and Leon Draisailt, have a combined 43 points in just 11 games.
Ottawa Senators goaltender Marcus Hogberg will be between the pipes for Wednesday's clash with the high-scoring Canucks. The Swedish netminder made his first start of the season last weekend and it didn't go well in a 6-3 loss to Winnipeg. He had 32 saves in the contest but failed to keep ahold of a 3-2 lead in the third period. Hogberg doesn't have a lot of experience in the league and he plays behind a bad team, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect too much from him. Especially against a team that has produced 41 goals in 11 games.
Ottawa Senators goaltender Marcus Hogberg will get his first start of the season on Saturday against Winnipeg. Matt Murray really struggled against the Jets this week in two outings and was pulled in the most recent meeting, so Hogberg now gets a chance to impress. He has a 5-10-9 career record in the league with a 3.25 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage. The Senators have dropped four straight in this matchup, so don't count on Hogberg to turn the tide.
