Svedberg stopped all 32 shots that he faced in a 4-0 win over the Sabres on Saturday. He has had a great start to the year, stopping 62 of 64 shots (.969 SV%).

Svedberg stopped the only two shots that he faced in a relief effort of Tuukka Rask on Thursday. He allowed two goals on 30 shots in his first start and makes for a great spot-start option tonight when he takes on the Sabres.
