Forsberg stopped 36 of 40 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg dropped to 1-1-1 on the year. The 32-year-old was tagged for two goals by Jordan Staal in the first four minutes, but the Kings were able to claw back, only for Seth Jarvis to seal the Hurricanes' win in overtime. With 12 goals allowed on 100 shots over three games, Forsberg's performance has been poor behind a shakier-than-usual defense. The Swede will handle No. 1 duties between the pipes until Darcy Kuemper (lower body) returns. Kuemper's status for a five-game road trip that begins in St. Louis on Tuesday has yet to be announced, so Forsberg could be in for a busy week as the Sharks play five games in a span of eight days.

Forsberg will protect the home goal versus the Hurricanes on Saturday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg is off to a middling start this season, going 1-1-0 with eight goals allowed on 60 shots through two games. He'll be facing a Hurricanes team that has started this year 4-0-0, so this will be a tough assignment. Expect some low-event hockey between two teams known for maintaining strong defensive structures.

Forsberg stopped 22 of 25 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Penguins. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg has a brief chance to fill in as the Kings' top goalie while Darcy Kuemper (lower body) is out. This wasn't a great showing for Forsberg, who is now 1-0-1 with eight goals allowed on 60 shots over his two starts this season. The 32-year-old could cede some starts to Pheonix Copley if his play doesn't improve. The Kings have a tough matchup ahead when they host the Hurricanes on Saturday.

Forsberg is slated to start at home against Pittsburgh on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg is making his second start of the season after allowing five goals on 35 shots en route to a 6-5 shootout win over Vegas on Oct. 8. Darcy Kuemper is dealing with a lower-body injury, so Pheonix Copley will serve as Forsberg's understudy. Pittsburgh is 2-2-0 and tied for 23rd in goals per game with 2.75 this year.

Forsberg stopped 30 of 35 shots in Wednesday's 6-5 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
The Kings' defense wasn't up to par when the Golden Knights' top players were on the ice. Forsberg did what he could, and he got enough support to guide the game to a shootout, where he stopped two of three attempts to claim the win. The 32-year-old netminder should continue to fill the backup role, though it's not clear when he'll get his next start, as the Kings don't have another back-to-back in the next week.

Forsberg will guard the road goal versus the Golden Knights on Wednesday, Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period reports.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg will get the second half of the Kings' back-to-back set to open the season. Darcy Kuemper was in net for a 4-1 loss to the Avalanche on Tuesday. This outing will be Forsberg's official Kings debut after he signed with the team in free agency. Given that Los Angeles has two veteran goalies, expect Forsberg to start at least once in every back-to-back set as well as some additional times throughout the year to keep Kuemper fresh.

Forsberg will protect the road goal versus the Mammoth in Thursday's preseason game, Jared Shafran of LA Kings Insider reports.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg stopped 32 of 33 shots in his preseason debut versus Vegas on Sept. 23. The 32-year-old netminder will slot in as the Kings' backup goalie, but he shouldn't have to wait long for his first start of the season, as the Kings host the Avalanche on Tuesday and visit the Golden Knights on Wednesday to begin the regular season.

Forsberg will protect the road goal in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Golden Knights, Jared Shafran of LA Kings Insider reports.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg will take a turn in the crease as he prepares to handle the backup role behind Darcy Kuemper in 2025-26. The 32-year-old Forsberg went 11-12-3 with a 2.72 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 30 regular-season games with the Senators last year, and his workload should be fairly similar in his first season with the Kings.

Forsberg inked a two-year, $4.5 million contract with Los Angeles on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg will enter training camp with a shot at unseating Pheonix Copley as the No. 2 option behind Darcy Kuemper. With the Senators last season, the 32-year-old Forsberg played in 30 games, posting an 11-12-3 record, career-best 2.72 GAA and three shutouts. Forsberg should see similar usage in 2025-26, limiting his fantasy value as long as Kuemper stays healthy.

Forsberg saved 12 of 16 shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
While he kept Chicago off the scoresheet for the rest of regulation after the 2:24 mark in the second period, the Ottawa netminder allowed the game-winning tally 48 seconds into overtime. The 32-year-old Forsberg will probably wrap up the regular season with an 11-12-3 record, a 3.72 GAA and a .901 save percentage in 30 appearances. Even though Forsberg ended with a tough performance, he improved his GAA and save percentage by a sizable margin in 2024-25 from his previous campaign.
