Hogberg was summoned from AHL Bridgeport on Saturday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hogberg's recall to the NHL roster doesn't bode well for the availability of Ilya Sorokin (lower body) for Saturday's home matchup against the Rangers. As a result, David Rittich will likely get the start. Hogberg was 5-7-2 with a 3.08 GAA and an .881 save percentage across 14 AHL games before his recall.

Hogberg was returned to AHL Bridgeport on Tuesday, per the AHL transactions page.

EDGE Analysis

Hogberg was summoned by the Islanders on Monday under emergency conditions due to the absence of Ilya Sorokin (undisclosed). The Islanders won't play again until Saturday, so New York still has the option to recall a goaltender if Sorokin isn't ready to return in time for that game. Hogberg hasn't appeared in an NHL game this season. He has a 3.08 GAA and an .881 save percentage in 14 outings with Bridgeport.

Hogberg was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Monday under emergency conditions.

EDGE Analysis

Ilya Sorokin (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup for Tuesday's home game against New Jersey, but he should return to the fold when the Islanders host the Rangers on Saturday. As a result of Sorokin's absence, Hogberg will probably serve as David Rittich's backup in Tuesday's matchup versus the Devils.

Hogberg posted a 33-save shutout in AHL Bridgeport's 3-0 win over Hartford on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Bridgeport was on the attack early, and Hogberg made sure that lead never faded. This was his first AHL shutout since the 2018-19 season -- he didn't have one in 11 appearances with Bridgeport last year in his return to North America after a stint in his native Sweden. Hogberg is currently third on the Islanders' depth chart behind NHL goalies Ilya Sorokin and David Rittich, and he could slip to fourth once Semyon Varlamov (knee) can play again.

Hogberg was waived by the Islanders on Tuesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This move indicates that David Rittich will begin the 2025-26 campaign as the backup to Ilya Sorokin, as Semyon Varlamov (knee) has no timeline for a return. If Hogberg goes unclaimed on the waiver wire, he will head to AHL Bridgeport, where he went 2-5-3 with an .898 save percentage and a 3.26 GAA across 11 appearances last season.

Hogberg will be between the pipes versus the Devils in Tuesday's road preseason contest, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hogberg faces an uphill battle trying to unseat David Rittich as the No. 2 option behind Ilya Sorokin this season. The 30-year-old Hogberg's chances of appearing in an NHL game in 2025-26 will be even further diminished if Semyon Varlamov (knee) is cleared to continue playing. As such, Hogberg's time in training camp is likely to come to an end sooner rather than later.

Hogberg turned aside 20 shots in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old netminder kept Columbus off the board in the first period, but things fell apart for the Islanders over the final 40 minutes of their season. Hogberg had a rough conclusion to his campaign, coughing up six or more goals in three of his last four starts, and his last win came back on Jan. 18 -- he went 0-4-3 over his last nine outings with a 4.60 GAA and .833 save percentage. Ilya Sorokin and Semyon Varlamov (lower body) are both under contract for 2025-26, but even if the latter's health remains in question, the Isles may look for an upgrade on Hogberg this offseason as their No. 3 goalie.

Hogberg will defend the road crease against Columbus on Thursday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hogberg has seen sporadic playing time for most of the season, but he's failed to pick up a win over seven appearances since the 4 Nations Face-Off. During that time, he's gone 0-3-3 with a 4.82 GAA and .829 save percentage. He'll draw the start in Thursday's regular-season finale and will face a tough test, as the Blue Jackets are tied for eighth in the NHL with 3.22 goals per game this year. However, Columbus was eliminated from playoff contention Wednesday night, so it's possible the team rests a few players Thursday.

Hogberg made 19 saves in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Hogberg was much better Saturday than Thursday when he allowed eight goals against the Rangers. He allowed just one goal in the shootout through five rounds to take the loss in Saturday's contest. Hogberg hasn't won since Jan. 18, going 0-3-3 in eight appearances. The 30-year-old netminder is a journeyman with just 45 starts (11-22-12).

Hogberg will get the starting nod on the road Saturday against the Flyers, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Ilya Sorokin (lower body) sidelined, Hogberg will have a chance to bounce back after being tagged for eight goals on 30 shots in Thursday's 9-2 loss to the Rangers. The 30-year-old Hogberg has made 13 appearances for the Islanders this year, going 2-5-2 with a 3.17 GAA and an .889 save percentage.
