Lukas Dostal News

For the fifth straight game, despite a three-game losing skid, the Ducks will turn to Dostal between the pipes. The 24-year-old Dostal has allowed nine combined goals in his last two outings (0-2-0), but has been tremendous for most of the season, boasting an impressive 2.50 GAA and .930 SV% in 10 games (4-4-2), stats that are even more impressive considering the Ducks are averaging only 2.1 goals per game, fewest in the NHL. The Ducks enter action on Friday as +174 home underdogs against the Minnesota Wild.

Dostal was in the crease in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks, allowing four goals on 29 shots (.862 SV%), but the Ducks will not stray away from Dostal, starting for the fourth consecutive game. The 24-year-old Dostal has been heroic at times for the Ducks, boasting an impressive 2.22 GAA and .937 SV% through nine contests (4-3-2), totals that are even more impressive when considering the Ducks are averaging only 2.18 goals per game, fewest in the NHL. The Ducks enter the action on Tuesday as sizeable +204 home underdogs against the Vancouver Canucks, owners of a 5-2-3 record.

Dostal is fresh off another fantastic start on Tuesday, allowing just a single goal on 41 shots against in a 3-1 victory on Long Island. The 24-year-old netminder has been one of the most underrated goaltenders in the early parts of the 2024-25 season, compiling a 4-2-1 record to go along with a ridiculous .943 SV% and 2.00 GAA. Despite the hot start, Dostal and the Ducks enter action in Pittsburgh on Thursday at +150 on the money line.

The Ducks will turn back to Lukas Dostal for Tuesday's game against the Islanders after James Reimer got the nod for the tail-end of their back-to-back on Sunday. Dostal has quietly put together a terrific start to the season, posting a .936 SV% and a 2.17 GAA across six appearances. He was unfortunate to be tagged with the loss his last time out, allowing just two goals on 32 shots as the Rangers edged the Ducks by a score of 2-1. He will need to be at his best again tonight with the Ducks entering action as +200 road underdogs on Long Island.

John Gibson (appendectomy) is nearing a return to the Ducks' lineup but could be hard-pressed to earn playing time, as Dostal has been impressive between the pipes early in the 2024-25 season. Dostal will start for the fourth straight game and look to improve on his 2.48 GAA and .930 SV% through four games (2-1-1). The Ducks enter Tuesday's contest as -150 home favorites against a San Jose Sharks club that has been outscored 26-12 in six games this season (0-4-2).

The Ducks will turn to Dostal for the second straight game on Friday night when they visit the Colorado Avalanche. The 24-year-old Czech netminder has been outstanding to start the 2024-25 campaign, responsible for both Ducks wins, posting a tremendous 1.99 GAA and .933 SV%. That said, the Ducks enter action on Friday are sizeable +233 road underdogs against an Avalanche club that is desperate to snap their four-game losing skid to start the season.

Dostal was excellent in the Ducks' season opener and will return to the crease for the second time this season on Wednesday night against the Utah Hockey Club. The 24-year-old Dostal had stretches of excellent play last season, ending his campaign with a modest 3.33 GAA and .902 SV% in 44 contests (14-23-3). The Czech netminder recorded a 30-save shutout in his only appearance this season but his Ducks rank as +134 home underdogs against a Utah HC team that that has scored five or more goals in three of their four games (3-1-0).

Dostal will make back-to-back starts to close out the 2023-24 season as the Ducks are opting to give him the nod over John Gibson in Thursday's regular season finale. Dostal took the loss his last time out, allowing three goals on 28 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Kings. He comes into tonight's game with a .900 SV% and a 13-23-3 record across 43 appearances. Unsurprisingly, he is a longshot to get back in the win column on Thursday with the Ducks being +310 underdogs in Vegas.

The Ducks, losers of seven of their last eight (1-5-2), will turn to Dostal in the crease for the fifth straight game. Dostal has allowed three or fewer goals in three of his last four (1-2-1) but allowed five on 31 shots (.839 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 6-5 loss to the St. Louis Blues. The Ducks enter action as +248 home underdogs on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings.

The Ducks will turn to Dostal between the pipes for his third straight game. Dostal has allowed three or more goals in four straight (1-2-1), but was victorious in his last outing, saving 21 of 24 shots (.875 SV%) in a 5-3 win over the Calgary Flames. The Ducks enter action as +152 home underdogs against a Seattle Kraken club that shut them out 4-0 on March 26th.

The Ducks have favoured Dostal between the pipes lately and will turn to him for the third time in the last four games as they attempt to snap their five-game losing skid. Considering the Ducks' recent offensive woes, Dostal has performed reasonably for the Ducks lately, posting a .907 SV% in his last six outings (1-4-1). That said, the Ducks enter action on Tuesday as sizeable +205 road underdogs against the Calgary Flames.

Dostal will be back between the pipes for the Ducks on Thursday after John Gibson got the nod in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Kraken. Dostal's last appearance came against the Lightning on Sunday. He allowed three goals on 27 shots in the overtime loss. The 23-year-old netminder has posted a respectable .901 SV% across 36 appearances for a struggling Ducks team this season. He draws yet another tough matchup on Thursday as Anaheim finds themselves as +195 underdogs in Seattle.
