Anton Forsberg Snaps Losing Skid On Sunday
3 mins agoOttawa Senators goaltender Anton Forsberg got back in the win column on Sunday in his victory over the New Jersey Devils. The 32-year-old netminder stopped 25 of the 26 shots he faced. His lone blemish came in the second period when Tomas Tatar scored his fourth goal of the season on a backhand. Forsberg entered this contest with a poor 0-2-1 record with a .861% SV and a 3.63 GAA over his previous three games. In addition, Leevi Merilainen has taken over the starting crease as he made five straight starts following Forsberg's three-game losing streak. However, after Forsberg's bounce back on Sunday, he may begin to see more starting opportunities. For now, fantasy managers should continue to expect Merilainen to see the majority of starts, as he has posted a stellar 1.57 GAA and .940% SV over his past five games.
