Joonas Korpisalo - Page 7 - NHL News & Rumors

Pulled to spark team Korpisalo allowed three goals on 20 shots Saturday before being replaced midway through the second period by Anton Forsberg. The final score was 6-4 for the Lightning.

Impact Korpisalo had played well prior to Saturday, and this loss really wasn't on him. He didn't want to leave the game and tossed his stick down the runway. The Sens struggled in the game, so Korpisalo will be in there again soon -- he's holding them up until they figure out how to play in their own zone.

Facing Lightning Korpisalo will protect the home goal versus the Lightning on Saturday, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact Korpisalo has allowed just eight goals on 119 shots over his last three games, but he has a 1-2-0 record in that span. The 29-year-old draws a matchup against the Lightning, who have averaged 3.5 goals per game over the last six contests.

Stands on head in loss Korpisalo made 35 saves in a 3-2 loss to the Kings on Thursday.

Impact It was a tough night for Korpisalo early, not because he was gripping his stick or anything, but because of a collapsing defense in front of him. He has taken some heat from fans early, but it's unfounded. Korpisalo is doing everything he can to keep his team in contests. Over his last three starts, he has faced 119 shots and allowed just eight goals. When the Sens get their game going in the right direction, Korpisalo's strong play will lift a lot of fantasy teams.

Set to face Kings Korpisalo is expected to start in Thursday's home game versus LA, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact Korpisalo spent part of the 2022-23 campaign with the Kings, earning a 7-3-1 record, 2.13 GAA and .921 save percentage in 11 starts during that stretch. He's had a comparatively rough time with Ottawa. Through six outings this season, the 29-year-old is 2-3-0 with a 3.22 GAA and a .903 save percentage. The Kings have the league-leading offense with 4.33 goals per game this year.

Dazzles in win Korpisalo made 39 saves Saturday in a 5-2 victory over Pittsburgh.

Impact He allowed a second-period goal to Sidney Crosby on a tip-in. Korpisalo also allowed Jake Guentzel to score in the last minute of play on his 10th shot of the game, but the Ottawa netminder dazzled all night long. Korpisalo came into the contest scuffling with a 1-3-0 record, 3.50 GAA and .886 save percentage, but was an absolute wall for most of the night. This effort is a strong step toward improving those dismal numbers.

Back at it Saturday Korpisalo will get the road start Saturday against the Penguins, per Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com.

Impact Korpisalo will make a second straight start after he stopped 35 of 38 shots in a 3-2 loss to the Islanders on Thursday. The 29-year-old netminder has struggled a bit to start his first season with Ottawa, going 1-3-0 with an .886 save percentage through five appearances.

Falls to Islanders Korpisalo allowed three goals on 38 shots in a 3-2 loss to the Islanders on Thursday.

Impact Korpisalo was back between the pipes Thursday after entering in relief of Anton Forsberg on Tuesday against Buffalo. The 29-year-old Korpisalo was solid, holding the Islanders to three goals on 38 shots, but Noah Dobson's tally in the third period was enough to stick Korpi with the one-goal loss. Korpisalo is now 1-3-0 with an .886 save percentage through his first five games as Ottawa's No. 1 netminder. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next start which is likely to come Saturday in Pittsburgh.

Guarding road goal Thursday Korpisalo is set to start on the road against the Islanders on Thursday, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact Korpisalo has struggled out of the gate, recording a 1-2-0 record, 3.64 GAA and .872 save percentage through four contests. That's a steep decline compared to his 18-14-4 record, 2.87 GAA and .914 save percentage in 39 games between Columbus and LA last year. The Islanders rank 24th offensively with an average of 2.60 goals per game, so perhaps Korpisalo will fare better against them.

OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Burned by Wings Korpisalo made 18 saves on 23 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact There wasn't much Korpisalo could do in this one, as three of Detroit's goals came on the power play and one of the even-strength tallies came after a bad Ottawa turnover in the neutral zone produced an odd-man rush. Korpisalo has a rough .865 save percentage through his first three starts of the season, allowing five goals in two of them, and he could turn the crease back over to Anton Forsberg for Tuesday's game against the Sabres.

Starting Saturday Korpisalo will guard the home net Saturday against the Red Wings, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Impact Korpisalo is coming off his first win with the Senators in his last outing against Tampa Bay. Through two starts, the 29-year-old netminder is 1-1-0 while allowing seven goals on 66 shots. Korpisalo will face a Detroit team that scored six goals in its last game, Wednesday against the Penguins.

Earns first win with Sens Korpisalo kicked aside 22 of the 24 shots he faced in a 5-2 win against the Lightning Sunday.

Impact Korpisalo was knocked around for five goals on 42 shots in an uneven performance in Carolina in the opener. After watching Anton Forsberg shut down the Flyers 5-2 on Saturday, Korpisalo had a nearly identical performance. If the Senators can get solid defensive efforts and good goaltending by their duo, a playoff run is easily possible.

Starting versus Tampa Korpisalo will guard the home goal Sunday versus the Lightning, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Impact Korpisalo allowed five goals on 42 shots against the Hurricanes in his Senators debut Wednesday. The 29-year-old will catch a slight break, as the Lightning won't have Steven Stamkos (lower body) in the lineup.

OCTOBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Falls to Carolina Korpisalo allowed five goals on 42 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Korpisalo was busy in his Senators' debut. The 29-year-old was sharp in the opening frame, turning aside 14 shots to keep Carolina off the board. However, he'd allow five goals over the final two periods as Ottawa fell 5-3. Korpisalo signed a five-year will with the Senators in the offseason after going 18-14-4 with a .914 save percentage last year between Columbus and Los Angeles. He'll likely get another start Saturday, where he'll look to bounce back in the Sens home opener against the Flyers.

In goal Wednesday Korpisalo will protect the road goal in Wednesday's game versus the Hurricanes, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Korpisalo is set to make his Senators debut in the team's opening game of the season. He went 18-14-4 with a 2.87 GAA and a .914 save percentage in 39 games between the Kings and the Blue Jackets last year. The 29-year-old is expected to see a majority of the starts in 2023-24, as long as his performance is better than Anton Forsberg's work.

Gives up five goals in loss Korpisalo stopped 21 of 26 shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.

Impact Korpisalo wasn't able to save the Kings' season, turning in a fairly lackluster performance in the loss. The 29-year-old finished the first round on a three-game losing streak, and he gave up 22 tallies on 203 shots in the series. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer, and his strong play -- aside from his last three appearances -- will likely put him in high demand.
