Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Crumbles under pressure
Dostal stopped 27 of 33 shots in Tuesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Canucks.
The Ducks twice held a three-goal advantage, but Dostal imploded in the third period. He allowed three goals over the last seven-plus minutes, and then Filip Hronek's power-play tally in overtime completed Vancouver's comeback. Dostal is not living up to expectations at this point in the season, having allowed three or more goals in seven of his nine outings. He's at a 4-4-1 record with a 3.56 GAA and an .872 save percentage on the year. The Ducks' next game is at home versus the Sabres on Thursday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Guarding home crease
Dostal will draw the home start in Tuesday's clash against the Canucks, per Derek Lee.
Dostal will look to keep momentum on his side Tuesday after getting back in the win column against the Flyers on Saturday. Across eight outings this season, the 26-year-old backstop has a 4-4-0 record, a 3.28 GAA and an .880 save percentage. While Ville Husso has started to cut into Dostal's workload, the latter remains the top option between the pipes given his 30-plus win upside. He'll be a solid No. 2 goalie option for Tuesday's battle against the Canucks, who rank 21st in the NHL with 2.85 goals per game.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Weathers early storm for fourth win
Dostal made 28 saves in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Flyers.
Philly grabbed a 2-0 lead late in the first period with a pair of power-play goals just 63 seconds apart from Matvei Michkov and Porter Martone, but Dostal kept his focus and gave Anaheim a chance to mount a comeback. The victory snapped a three-start losing streak for the 26-year-old netminder, and through eight outings this season Dostal sports a 4-4-0 record with a 3.27 GAA and .880 save percentage.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Set to face Flyers
Dostal will guard the road crease in Saturday's clash against the Flyers, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.
Dostal is currently on a three-game losing streak, with his most recent loss coming in a close game against the Islanders earlier in the Ducks' road trip. Overall, the 26-year-old backstop has a 3-4-0 record, a 3.17 GAA and an .881 save percentage across seven appearances. He's ceded more work to Ville Husso as of late, and if he can't get back on track against the Flyers on Saturday that trend could continue. For now, Dostal is an untrustworthy fantasy option outside of deep leagues, but his favorable matchup against Philadelphia on Saturday could help him get kickstarted.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Sunk by Isles
Dostal made 22 saves in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Islanders.
All three goals against Dostal came within two and a half minutes of each other late in the first period, including a power-play tally by Simon Holmstrom that proved to be the game-winner. The 26-year-old netminder stood tall the rest of the way, but the Ducks couldn't draw level. Dostal has lost three straight decision, allowing at least three goals each time, and through seven outings to begin the season he's gone 3-4-0 with a 3.17 GAA and .881 save percentage.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Set to face Isles
Dostal will get the starting nod for Tuesday's road clash with the Islanders, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.
Dostal has lost two straight starts, during which he posted a 3.57 GAA and .877 save percentage. With the Ducks entering a back-to-back, Ville Husso will patrol the cage for Monday's road clash with the Rangers, giving Dostal an extra night off to regain his focus.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Handed loss Friday
Dostal surrendered four goals on 22 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Bruins.
Dostal took his third loss of the year and his second in as many games. His performance has been all over the place so far, as evidenced by a 3.17 GAA and an .882 save percentage through six outings. He's not yet in danger of losing the No. 1 job for the Ducks, but he'll need to get himself on track on the road. The Ducks begin their road trip out east with a back-to-back, visiting the Rangers on Monday and the Islanders on Tuesday. Expect Dostal and Ville Husso to split those contests.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine against Boston
Dostal will start Friday's home game against the Bruins, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal has had an inconsistent start to the 2026-27 campaign, going 3-2-0 with a 2.98 GAA and .891 save percentage. During his lone start against Boston last year, the 26-year-old turned aside 36 of 39 shots en route to a 4-3 regulation win at home.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Wastes favorable matchup
Dostal allowed three goals on 35 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Flames. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
The Flames had their best game of the year, and Dostal wasn't quite up to the challenge. The 35 shots against were the most he's seen in his five outings this season. Dostal is 3-2-0 with a 2.98 GAA and an .892 save percentage so far. He should continue to see a starter's workload for the Ducks. Their next game is Friday at home versus the Bruins before they set off on an eastern road trip.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine Tuesday
Dostal will patrol the home paint in Tuesday's clash against the Flames, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.
Dostal will look to keep momentum on his side in Tuesday's clash after he won his most recent appearance in a 5-1 victory over Winnipeg. The 26-year-old netminder has a 3-1-0 record, a 2.96 GAA and an .883 save percentage across four outings to begin the new campaign. He'll be slated to face the Flames, who have yet to find the win column across five outings, making Dostal one of the top players to start in fantasy Tuesday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Cruises to win over Jets
Dostal stopped 15 of 16 shots in Friday's 5-1 win over the Jets.
Dostal didn't face much traffic in this contest, earning his third win in four starts on the year. The lone blemish on his line was a Kyle Connor tally midway through the third period. Dostal has allowed 11 goals on 94 shots while going 3-1-0 so far. He'll likely get some rest Saturday against the Flames, which will probably be Ville Husso's first start of the campaign, but Dostal's starting role is not in doubt in the long run.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Slated to start in Winnipeg
Dostal will protect the road goal versus the Jets on Friday.
Dostal is looking to bounce back after allowing five goals on 17 shots over two periods against the Oilers on Wednesday. That was his first loss in three starts this season. The 26-year-old will face a Jets team that has enjoyed a hot start to the year with 12 goals over four games while going 3-0-1.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Pulled after bad second period
Dostal allowed five goals on 17 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.
Dostal was pulled after the Oilers put up a five-spot in the second period against him. Ville Husso played the third period and made two saves. This was the first rough patch of the year for Dostal, who is 2-1-0 with 10 goals allowed on 78 shots over three games. He'll likely start one of the next two games -- the Ducks have a road back-to-back up next with stops in Winnipeg on Friday and Calgary on Saturday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Between pipes against Oilers
Dostal will tend the twine at home versus Edmonton on Wednesday, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Dostal is undefeated to start the year, going 2-0-0 with a 2.42 GAA and .918 save percentage. If the 26-year-old netminder continues to see a heavy workload moving forward, he could push for the 30-win threshold, setting a new personal best by surpassing it.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Picks up overtime win
Dostal stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Panthers.
Dostal has faced a couple of tough opponents to start the season and come away with two wins and five goals allowed on 61 shots. The Ducks' power play did the heavy lifting Sunday, with Cutter Gauthier scoring twice and Mikael Granlund adding the winner in overtime. Dostal should continue to see steady usage as the top goalie in Anaheim. The Ducks' next game is at home versus the Oilers on Wednesday.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tending twine against Florida
Dostal will start at home against the Panthers on Sunday, according to Patrick Present of The Hockey News.
Dostal picked up a win in his first appearance of the season Friday in Vegas, stopping 27 of 30 shots en route to a 4-3 win. The 26-year-old will face another tough opponent Sunday, but the Panthers will be missing Aleksander Barkov (knee), who was placed on long-term injured reserve Saturday. However, Florida will have Brad Marchand (lower body) making his 2026-27 debut Sunday in Anaheim.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Holds off Golden Knights.
Dostal stopped 27 of 30 shots in Friday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Dostal kept Vegas off the board for two periods, but last year's runners-up didn't go down without a fight, scoring thrice in the third. That's likely a product of a very young blue line, and more generally an inexperienced roster. Dostal is capable of handling a starter's workload, and it'll be up to him to provide a calming presence in goal to build his defense's confidence. The Ducks' next game is Sunday at home versus the Panthers, which will provide another tough test early in the campaign.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Slated to face Vegas
Dostal is expected to start on the road against Vegas on Friday, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Dostal had a 30-20-4 record, 3.10 GAA and .888 save percentage in 56 regular-season appearances with Anaheim in 2025-26. He's set to be the Ducks' No. 1 option this campaign, while Ville Husso is slated to be the backup option. Dostal and the Ducks will be looking for a little revenge after Vegas ended Anaheim's playoff run in the 2026 second-round series. Dostal had a 3.21 GAA and an .884 save percentage across six outings in that series.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Struggles in preseason finale
Dostal made 14 saves in Saturday's 6-2 preseason loss to the Kings.
The Ducks actually held a 2-1 lead late in the first period, but Los Angeles scored five straight goals against Dostal to end the preseason on a sour note for the netminder. Dostal recorded a career-high 30 wins in the 2025-26 regular season, and he remains the clear No. 1 in the crease for an Anaheim team looking to take another step forward this season.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Defending crease Saturday
Dostal will guard the road net in Saturday's preseason finale against the Kings, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Dostal posted a 30-20-4 record with a 3.10 GAA and an .888 save percentage over 56 regular-season outings in 2025-26. He should get the bulk of the starts for the Ducks again in the 2026-27 campaign.
