Linus Ullmark News

Ullmark played very well in his last contest, saving 37 of 40 shots (.925 SV%) in a 4-3 overtime victory against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday. Before that, Ullmark allowed nine goals on 60 shots (.850 SV%) in consecutive losing appearances but will look to string together strong performances as the Bruins are sizeable -275 home favourites against the Buffalo Sabres. In Ullmark's last contest against his former team, he saved 32 of 34 shots (.941 SV%) in a 5-2 victory on November 14th.

The carousel of goaltender starts continues in Boston as Ullmark takes the crease back after backing up for Boston's 5-2 loss to Detroit Friday. The 30-year-old Vezina Trophy Winner is looking to duplicate last years honour with his impressive 7-1-1 record, 2.10 GAA and .932 SV%. He draws the tough task of the New York Rangers, who have won 12 of their last 14 games and are 15th in the NHL in goals per game (3.22).

Ullmark has backed up Jeremy Swayman for the Bruins' previous two games but will take the crease back Wednesday in Florida. The 30-year-old Vezina Trophy Winner has been remarkable yet again this season, with his 6-1-1 record, 2.23 GAA and .928 SV%. He heads to Florida on Wednesday, who has won their last two games and is fifth in the NHL in shots per game (33.7).

The Bruins have followed their pattern of goalie rotations all season and as such, Ullmark will start on Tuesday against his former team, the Buffalo Sabres. After allowing five goals on 40 shots (.875 SV%) in a 5-4 loss to the Detroit Red Wings, Ullmark bounced back with a stellar effort, saving 27 of 29 (.931 SV%) in a 5-2 victory over the New York Islanders. This will mark Ullmark's first time playing his former team since his inaugural season with the Bruins in 2021-22, when he was lights-out, posting a 1.33 GAA and .957 SV% in three games against the Sabres (3-0-0).

Ullmark will be the starter for the Bruins on Thursday as the team continues their back-and-forth rotation between netminders. Entering Thursday's game against the New York Islanders, Ullmark boasts a 2.30 GAA and .926 SV% through six games (4-1-1) but has allowed four or more goals in two of his last three starts (1-1-1). The Bruins are -128 home favourites against an Islanders team that, despite a respectable 5-3-3 record, scores the sixth-fewest goals in the league (2.65 GF / GP).

Ullmark will likely be the starter for the Bruins on Thursday as the team continues their back-and-forth rotation between netminders. Entering Thursday's game against the New York Islanders, Ullmark boasts a 2.30 GAA and .926 SV% through six games (4-1-1) but has allowed four or more goals in two of his last three starts (1-1-1).

Ullmark will return to the Bruins' crease on Monday after Jeremy Swayman got the call in Saturday's 4-1 victory over the Red Wings. Ullmark and the Bruins remain undefeated in regulation on the season, but they both suffered their first overtime loss of the year in Ullmark's most recent start on Thursday against the Ducks. The reigning Vezina Trophy winner allowed four goals on 32 shots enroute to the 4-3 defeat. He'll be hoping to get back in the win column tonight with the Bruins currently being favoured at -165 over the Panthers.

The Bruins' goaltending duo of Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman have paved the way for their 6-0-0 start to the season. Ullmark is proving that last year's Vezina trophy was not a fluke as he has a 1.00 GAA and .962 SV%. A league-best 1.17 goals allowed per game for the Bruins has overshadowed any expected shortcomings after losing key offensive pieces in the offseason. The Bruins are expected to keep the winning streak going as they are massive -303 home favourites against the Anaheim Ducks.

Ullmark returns to the Bruins crease after Jeremy Swayman got the nod for Saturday night's game in Los Angeles. Ullmark is off to another fantastic start this season, boasting a 2-0-0 record to go along with a .958 SV% and a 1.00 GAA. The 2022-23 Vezina Trophy winner is in a great spot to pick up another victory tonight, with Boston being a sizable favourite on the moneyline at -250.

Ullmark will start his second game of the season as the Bruins will attempt to start on a three-game winning streak when they face off against the San Jose Sharks on Thursday. Picking up where he left off with his Vezina-winning 2022-23 campaign, Ullmark saved 20 of 21 shots for a 3-1 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks in his season debut. The Bruins should be able to continue their hot start to the season as they are a -266 road favourite over the Sharks on Thursday.

Ullmark is coming off a remarkable season that saw him win the Vezina Trophy and post an absurd 1.89 GAA and .938 SV% in 49 appearances (40-6-1). Like last season, the talented Swedish goaltender should see a near-split in the crease with counterpart Jeremy Swayman but at least for the Bruins' season opener, the nod goes to Ullmark. The Bruins, who allowed the fewest goals in the league last season, are facing a Blackhawks team that travelled from Pittsburgh last night after defeating the Penguins 4-2. Despite the Blackhawks having rookie phenom Connor Bedard in the lineup, the Bruins are still massive -310 home favourites.

Ullmark allowed four goals on 25 shots (.840 SV%) as he failed to close out the Florida Panthers as Boston's series lead fell to 3-2 with a 4-3 loss last game. The 29-year-old has been mediocre in the first round compared to his Vezina Trophy-worthy regular season, as he's 3-2-0 with a 2.79 GAA and .912 SV%. He will hope to close out the series yet again as he takes on the Florida Panthers in Game 6, who finished the regular season first in shots on goal per game (36.8).

Ullmark stopped 41 of 43 shots (.953 SV%) to take a demanding 3-1 series lead as he easily topped the Florida Panthers 6-2 in his last start. The 29-year-old was the NHL's best goalie during the regular season and has continued his incredibly strong play right into the post-season as he is 3-1-0 with a 2.55 GAA and .926 SV%. He will be hoping to close out the series as he takes on Florida in Boston Tuesday, who finished the regular season first in the NHL in shots per game (36.8) and sixth in shots (3.51).

Ullmark was not at Boston's morning skate Friday and will be a game-time decision for Game 3 due to an undisclosed injury. The 29-year-old struggled in Game 2 after allowing five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%) to even the series at 1-1 after two games.

Ullmark was sensational in Game 1, stopping 31 of 32 shots (.969 SV%) to keep his successful season going as he topped Florida 3-1 on Monday. The 29-year-old put together a historical season as a Vezina Trophy favourite, with his 40-6-1 record, 1.89 GAA and .938 SV%. He takes on the Florida Panthers yet again, who finished the 2022-23 regular season with the most shots on goal per game (3.51) across the entire NHL.
