Askarov will start in Colorado on Wednesday.

Askarov had a forgetful outing in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks, allowing four goals on 10 shots (.600 SV%) before being replaced by Alex Nedeljkovic. The Sharks have continued to flirt with Wild Card positioning for most of the season, but have not received exemplary goaltending from Askarov in recent weeks. The 23-year-old Askarov has allowed three or more goals in all but one of his last 18 outings (8-9-1), posting an ugly 4.14 GAA and .862 SV%. The Sharks enter Wednesday's contest as significant +243 road underdogs against an Avalanche team that has lost three of their last four games (1-3-0).

Askarov will start in Chicago on Monday.

Askarov allowed four goals on 32 shots (.875 SV%) in his previous outing, a 4-3 overtime loss to the Edmonton Oilers, but he hopes to rebound on Monday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The 23-year-old rookie goalie has allowed three or more goals in 16 of his last 17 games (8-8-1), posting a less-than-stellar 4.01 GAA and .868 SV%. The Sharks enter Monday's contest as slight -109 road favourites against a Blackhawks team on a five-game losing streak (0-3-2).

Askarov will start in Edmonton on Thursday.

Askarov was solid in his previous outing, saving 23 of 25 shots (.920 SV%) in a 5-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks. The win snapped an ugly stretch for the 23-year-old goalie, where he had allowed three or more goals in 15 consecutive outings (7-8-0). The Sharks enter the action on Thursday as +162 road underdogs against an Edmonton Oilers team that has been surging offensively, scoring five or more goals in four of their last six games (4-2-0).

Askarov will start in Vancouver on Tuesday.

Askarov has lost four of his last five (1-4-0), posting an ugly 3.65 GAA and .836 SV%. The 23-year-old goalie continues a frustrating stretch, having allowed three or more goals in 15 consecutive games (7-8-0), while posting a concerning 3.50 GAA and .864 SV%. Still, the Sharks enter Tuesday's contest as -120 road favorites against a Vancouver Canucks team on a two-game losing streak (0-2-0).

Askarov will start in Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

The Sharks will turn to Askarov between the pipes for the 31st time this season when they travel to Tampa Bay on Tuesday. Askarov took the loss in his last start, allowing three goals on 24 shots in a 4-2 loss in Detroit on Friday.

Askarov will start in Detroit on Friday.

In their last 21 games (12-9-0), the Sharks have allowed fewer than three goals only three times, all while Alex Nedeljkovic has been between the pipes. During that stretch, the Sharks rank second-worst in the league defensively (4.00 GA/GP), and have not received the stout netminding from Askarov that they became accustomed to earlier in the season. In his last 13 games (7-6-0), the 23-year-old Askarov has an ugly 3.64 GAA and .865 SV%. The Sharks enter Friday’s contest as +158 road underdogs against a Detroit Red Wings team whose four-game winning streak was snapped on Tuesday in a 3-0 loss to the Boston Bruins.

Askarov will start in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Askarov is coming off a forgetful performance, allowing three goals on 10 shots (.700 SV%) before being pulled in an eventual 7-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 23-year-old goalie is amid a tough stretch altogether, allowing three or more goals in 11 straight (6-5-0), posting a 3.54 GAA and .869 SV%. The Sharks enter the action on Wednesday as sizeable +212 road underdogs against a Los Angeles Kings team that is missing several key offensive contributors.

Askarov will start in Anaheim on Monday.

Askarov was unable to maintain the otherworldly 1.88 GAA and .944 SV% he had in 10 November games (8-2-0), falling drastically to a 4.29 GAA and .870 SV% in eight December outings (4-4-0). Still, the 23-year-old goalie has a winning 13-10-1 record this season, helping the Sharks stay in playoff contention in a competitive Western Conference. The Sharks enter Monday's contest as +151 road underdogs against an Anaheim Ducks team that has been outscored 9-2 in their last two games (0-2-0).

Askarov will start Saturday in Vancouver.

Askarov was pulled after he allowed four goals on 16 shots in the Sharks' 7-2 loss in Vegas on Tuesday. Askarov has struggled as of late, going 2-4-0 with a 4.87 GAA and .858 SV% in his last six starts. He draws a solid matchup vs. the Canucks on Saturday, but they'll be getting Elias Pettersson back tonight and the Sharks are +128 road underdogs.

Askarov will start in Vegas on Tuesday.

After an otherworldly November, posting a 1.88 GAA and .944 SV% in 10 games (8-2-0), Askarov has fallen off to a 3.98 GAA and .879 SV% in six December games (3-3-0). While the 23-year-old Askarov's elite November remains the highlight, Askarov has been a cornerstone for a young Sharks team that continues to hover around playoff contention. He has a 3.22 GAA and .900 SV% in 22 games this season (12-9-1). The Sharks enter the action on Tuesday as +180 road underdogs against a Vegas Golden Knights team on a three-game losing skid (0-2-1).

Askarov will start vs. Calgary on Tuesday.

Askarov has only played once in the last 10 days, but will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames. The 23-year-old Askarov has struggled with a 4.05 GAA and .846 SV% in his last three games (1-2-0). The Sharks are hoping Askarov's prolonged break can help him return to the form he had in November when he boasted an excellent 1.88 GAA and .944 SV% in 10 games (8-2-0). The Sharks enter Tuesday's contest as +118 home underdogs against a Flames team that has won four of their last five (4-1-0).
