Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Faces high volume in loss
Wallstedt stopped 37 of 41 shots on net in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Avalanche. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Wallstedt allowed just two goals at even strength in Sunday's contest with the Avalanche scoring the other three goals with a man advantage or against an empty net. After his busy loss Sunday, the 23-year-old netminder has a 10-2-2 record with a 2.10 GAA and a .933 save percentage across 14 appearances this season. Despite Sunday's loss to a division rival, only a short list of netminders have been better in fantasy than Wallstedt. He has won five of his last seven contests and has the best save percentage among goaltenders who have played in at least 10 games. While he operates in a goaltending tandem alongside Filip Gustavsson, Wallstedt sees enough volume to maintain elite week-to-week value in most fantasy formats. He will likely have Tuesday's game versus Nashville off before getting a chance to play in Saturday's matchup in Winnipeg.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Starter for Sunday
Wallstedt will be between the pipes versus Colorado on Sunday, according to Joe Smith of The Athletic.
Wallstedt is 10-1-2 with a 1.96 GAA and a .936 save percentage this season across 13 starts. He picked up his lone regulation loss Dec. 6 in Vancouver, allowing four goals on 21 shots, but he has come back nicely with a pair of wins while allowing four goals on 65 shots. The Avalanche lead the league in scoring, averaging 4.03 goals per game.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Secures 10th win
Wallstedt made 27 saves in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
The game was tight through two periods, but the Wild blew things open in the third while Wallstedt turned aside all 10 shots he saw in the final frame. The 23-year-old netminder continues to dazzle, posting a 10-1-2 record through 13 starts this season with a 1.96 GAA and .936 save percentage, but those numbers have only been good enough to earn him a timeshare alongside Filip Gustavsson, who's also been locked in (7-1-2 over his last 10 starts with a 1.67 GAA and .935 save percentage).

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Starting in Columbus
Wallstedt will serve as the starting netminder for Thursday's road game against Columbus, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt has been effective this season, but he's started just once in the Wild's last five games. He'll return to the crease Thursday and is in the midst of a strong run in which he's gone 8-1-0 with a 1.43 GAA and .957 save percentage over his last nine starts.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Sharp in Saturday's win
Wallstedt stopped 34 shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Senators.
The 23-year-old was the busier netminder on the afternoon as the Wild were outshot 36-25, but the only pucks to get past Wallstedt came on Ottawa power plays. It was an impressive bounce-back effort after he took his first regulation loss of the season Dec. 6 against the Canucks, and Wallstedt is 9-1-2 through 12 starts with a stellar 1.95 GAA and .937 save percentage.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Facing Senators
Wallstedt will start Saturday's home matchup against Ottawa.
Wallstedt is coming off a 17-save effort in last Saturday's 4-2 loss to Vancouver. He has posted a record of 8-1-2 this season with four shutouts, a 1.95 GAA and a .936 save percentage across 11 appearances. Ottawa is tied for 11th in the league with 3.10 goals per game this year.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Falters against Canucks
Wallstedt stopped 16 of 20 shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks.
Facing a team depleted by injuries, this was a disappointing performance for Wallstedt. He hadn't allowed more than three goals in any game during his seven-game winning streak, which was snapped Saturday with his first regulation loss of the season. He's now at an 8-1-2 record with a 1.95 GAA and a .936 save percentage. Bouncing back is critical for young goalies, and fantasy managers will want to see Wallstedt do well in that regard. The Wild have alternated goalies, so it's likely to be Filip Gustavsson starting in Seattle on Monday while Wallstedt would get a tough assignment Thursday at home versus the Stars.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Set to face Vancouver
Wallstedt is expected to start on the road against Vancouver on Saturday, per Joe Smith of The Athletic.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Continues dominant run
Wallstedt posted a 33-save shutout in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Oilers.
Wallstedt, who was named NHL Rookie of the Month for November early in the day Tuesday, continued his run of dominance with his fourth shutout during his seven-game winning streak. He's allowed a total of seven goals during the streak. The 23-year-old still hasn't lost in regulation in 10 outings this season, going 8-0-2 with a 1.74 GAA and a .944 save percentage. The Wild's road trip continues in Calgary on Thursday, though Wallstedt would cede that start to Filip Gustavsson before taking the crease in Vancouver on Saturday if Minnesota sticks to the goalie rotation that's been working well lately.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Set to start Tuesday
Wallstedt will start Tuesday's road game against Edmonton, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt has alternated starts with Filip Gustavsson across the past few weeks, and that trend will continue Tuesday. Wallstedt has certainly earned his fair share of playing time, as he's picked up wins in each of his last six starts while posting a 1.14 GAA and .967 during that time, a span that includes three shutout victories.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Setting standard for netminding
Wallstedt made 39 saves in a 3-2 shootout win over the Avalanche on Friday.
He had two more saves in the shootout to seal the victory. Wallstedt is now 7-0-2 this season, and that's the longest point streak to open a season in Wild history. And he has three shutouts in his last five starts. Among goaltenders with at least nine appearances in 2025-26, Wallstedt leads the NHL with a 1.93 GAA, .938 save percentage and three shutouts.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Facing Avalanche
Wallstedt will protect the home net against Colorado on Friday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt has won his last five outings while stopping 163 of 168 shots and posting three shutouts. He has a 6-0-2 record this season while allowing only 16 goals on 248 shots. However, his success will be put to the test by a Colorado team that ranks first in the league with 4.09 goals per game this campaign.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Another shutout
Wallstedt posted a 32-save shutout in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Jets.
Wallstedt has been absolutely dominant between the posts of late. This was his third shutout across his last four starts, as he also achieved this feat against the Ducks (Nov. 15) and Flames (Nov. 9), recording 28 and 36 saves in those games, respectively. The 23-year-old netminder has won each of his last five starts, posting a 0.99 GAA and an outstanding, yet unsustainable, .970 save percentage over that stretch.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Starting Sunday
Wallstedt will get the start Sunday against the Jets, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Wallstedt's strong recent play has earned him a more prominent role in Minnesota's goalie rotation. After playing only three of the first 15 games, he's now making his fifth start in the team's past eight games. The 23-year-old is the NHL's leader in both GAA (2.20) and save percentage (.926). He'll be tested against a Jets team that scores 3.30 goals per game, just outside the league's top five.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Fends off Hurricanes in shootout
Wallstedt stopped 42 of 45 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Hurricanes.
The Hurricanes brought a ton of pressure, but Wallstedt was up to the challenge. He kept them off the board until Jackson Blake's second-period tally. Wallstedt has won four outings in a row, allowing just five goals on 136 shots in that span. The 23-year-old is up to 5-0-2 on the year with a 2.20 GAA and a .926 save percentage over seven games. He's doing everything he can to push Filip Gustavsson for playing time between the pipes. The Wild's next game is Friday in Pittsburgh.

Wallstedt will patrol the home crease against Carolina on Wednesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt has stopped 89 of the 91 shots he has faced during his active three-game winning streak. He has posted shutout victories in each of his last two outings, but the Hurricanes will be a challenging opponent. Carolina ranks second in the league with 3.63 goals per game this season.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Blanks Ducks for second straight SO
Wallstedt made 28 saves in Saturday's 2-0 win over Anaheim.
The young netminder appears to have completely erased a rough 2024-25 campaign from his mind. Wallstedt has recorded consecutive shutouts, and through six starts to begin the current campaign, he's 4-0-2 with a dazzling 2.10 GAA and .924 save percentage. Filip Gustavsson should be between the pipes Sunday against the Golden Knights on the second leg of a back-to-back, but the veteran's 3.08 GAA and .896 save percentage are leaving the door open for Wallstedt to push his way into a much more significant role for the Wild.

Wallstedt is expected to start at home against Anaheim on Saturday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.
Wallstedt has won his past two starts while stopping 61 of 63 shots (.968 save percentage). He's 3-0-2 with a 2.51 GAA and a .909 save percentage in five outings this year. The Ducks have seen remarkable success this year with an 11-5-1 record, but Anaheim has lost its past two games while being outscored 10-4.
