Hogberg stopped 10 of 11 shots after replacing Craig Anderson early in the third period during Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
The only puck that did get past him came on an Alex Ovechkin special after a cross-ice pass, so Hogberg can hardly be faulted for it. The 25-year-old is 1-2-2 since being called up at the end of November with a 3.42 GAA and .894 save percentage over seven appearances, but Anderson's own struggles should continue to give Hogberg opportunities to prove he belongs in the NHL.

Hogberg gave up five goals on 33 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Penguins on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Evgeni Malkin struck 27 seconds into the game, and it didn't really get better after that for Hogberg, who is now 1-2-2 through six appearances. He's allowed four or more goals in his last four starts. Hogberg would likely return to AHL Belleville when Anders Nilsson (concussion) is activated from injured reserve.

Hogberg will tend the road twine in Monday's game against the Penguins, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anders Nilsson (concussion) remains on IR, so Hogberg gets the nod for the second half of back-to-back games. The 25-year-old netminder has allowed four goals in three straight starts, recording a 1-0-2 record in that stretch, and facing off against the red-hot Penguins won't make things easier. Over the last seven games, the Pens notched six wins and scored at least four goals in five of those outings.

Hogberg made 34 saves in a 5-4 shootout loss to Philadelphia on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
It's been tough sledding for Hogberg in the NHL, just like it was in the A. But there is some talent here -- he went 21-17-4 with a 2.32 GAA and .917 save percentage in the AHL in 2018-19. Unfortunately, the Sens are a tough fantasy play at any time and their goalies bear the brunt of their mediocrity. Hogberg just isn't a safe fantasy activation at this point in his career.

Hogberg will start between the pipes in Saturday's home game versus the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Hogberg wasn't great in his last start, but he still managed to pick up his first NHL win, stopping 33 of 37 shots en route to a 5-4 win over the Predators on Thursday. The 25-year-old will try to pick up a second straight win in a home matchup with a Philadelphia squad that's 7-9-1 on the road this year.

Hogberg allowed four goals on 37 shots in a 5-4 overtime win over Nashville on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
It took Hogberg eight tries, but he finally snagged his first win at the NHL level Thursday. Prior to defeating the Predators, the Swedish-born netminder owned a career 0-3-2 record across seven appearances at the top level. Considering how up and down Ottawa has been in 2019-20. it's hard to have faith in any of its goaltenders, especially one that's still finding his way in the NHL, and therefore Hogberg should only be owned in deeper leagues.

Hogberg will guard the goal during Thursday's home clash with the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Anders Nilsson was originally supposed to start Thursday, but he'll be unavailable due to an illness. In his stead, Hogberg will attempt to pick up his first win of the season in a tough home matchup with a Nashville offense that's averaging 3.64 goals per game on the road this campaign, first in the NHL.

Hogberg allowed four goals on 40 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Lightning on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old came close Tuesday, but he's still searching for the first win of his career after seven NHL appearances, including six starts. While the 36 saves was the second-highest total of his career, he's now 0-3-2 with a 3.41 GAA and .896 save percentage in seven NHL games. Hogberg is 0-1-1 with a 2.57 GAA and .913 save percentage in three appearances this season.

Hogberg gets the road start in Tuesday's game against the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Hogberg has appeared in two NHL games this season, and he's performed well with a .925 save percentage and 1.82 GAA. The Lightning can keep the goal horn blaring, but they may be without Nikita Kucherov (lower body). Furthermore, they've scored just eight goals over the last four games.

The Senators recalled Hogberg from AHL Belleville on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Craig Anderson left Saturday's loss to the Flyers with a lower-body injury, and he was placed on injured reserve, prompting the Sens to bring up Hogberg. Anderson is eligible to return for this Saturday's matchup against the Blue Jackets, and Hogberg figures to stay with the big club as long as Anderson is on the mend. Hogberg has played in two games with the big club this year, recording a .925 save percentage and 1.82 GAA.
