Filip Gustavsson News

Gustavsson has been outstanding since returning from the Olympic break, but had a forgetful performance in his most recent outing, allowing four goals on 18 shots (.778 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the New York Rangers. The loss ended a five-game stretch for Gustavsson (4-1-0) during which he boasted an outstanding 1.21 GAA and .960 SV%. Minnesota enters Tuesday's contest as -173 road favourites against a Chicago Blackhawks team that has scored three or fewer goals in six straight games (2-2-2).

Gustavsson seemed to be suffering some mid-season fatigue, posting a pedestrian 2.96 GAA and .893 SV% in 13 games (8-1-3) leading into the Olympic break. That said, the 27-year-old Swedish goalie has returned to action well rested and motivated, posting a dazzling 1.21 GAA and .960 SV% in five games (4-1-0) since NHL action has resumed.

Gustavsson was terrific in his most recent outing, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) in a 4-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights, and will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Utah Mammoth. The 27-year-old Swedish goalie looks rejuvenated after returning from the Olympic break, posting an impressive 1.52 GAA and .952 SV% in four games (3-1-0). Minnesota enters the action on Tuesday as -149 home favourites against a Utah team that defeated them 5-2 less than two weeks ago.

The Wild will hand Gustavsson his 39th start of the campaign when they travel to Vegas on Friday night. Gustavsson has been in fine form since returning from representing Sweden at the 2026 Winter Olympics, posting a .957 SV% and a 1.35 GAA across his last three starts. He was particularly impressive in his most recent start on Tuesday against the Lightning, when he allowed just a single goal on 25 shots enroute to a 5-1 victory. Gustavsson and the Wild enter action on Friday at -110 on the money line.

Gustavsson fell out of favour for Team Sweden at the Olympics, but has returned from the NHL stoppage with stellar results, saving 65 of 68 shots (.956 SV%) in two combined games (1-1-0). Before the break, the 27-year-old Gustavsson was battling some adversity in his last 10 appearances despite a solid 6-1-2 record, posting a subpar 3.15 GAA and .891 SV%. Minnesota enters the action on Tuesday as +122 home underdogs against a Tampa Bay Lightning team looking to rebound after a disappointing 6-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres.

Jakob Markstrom outdueled Gustavsson in the latter half of Team Sweden's Olympic run, allowing Gustavsson to be well-rested when he returns to the crease on Thursday against the Colorado Avalanche. The 27-year-old Gustavsson had helped his team record at least a point in seven straight games (6-0-1) heading into the Olympic break despite posting a pedestrian 3.19 GAA and .888 SV%.

Gustavsson had a really rough first period but ultimately settled in to stop 20 of the 22 shots that he faced in Sweden's win over Italy on Wednesday. It wasn't pretty, but it was enough to beat the overmatched hosts, however Sweden will need him to be sharper against Finland on Friday. Gustavsson and the Swedes are -192 favourites vs. their bitter rivals.

Gustavsson has enjoyed another strong season in Minnesota, where he's gone 20-9-6 with a 2.64 GAA, .907 SV%, and three shutouts.

He's not expected to be tested much on Wednesday, as Sweden are -50000 favourites and Italy has implied total of 1.44.
