Viktor Fasth is expected to start again on Friday. Fasth has a 1.74 GAA and .933 save percentage in seven games this season. Jonas Hiller is recovering from a lower body injury, but Fasth is making a strong case for keeping the top job when Hiller returns.

Viktor Fasth remains undefeated as he turned aside 28 of the 30 shots he faced in the Anaheim Ducks' 3-2 overtime shootout win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday. Likely the biggest surprise so far this season, Fasth has been dominate in his early career. He improves to 6-0-0 after shutting down perhaps the hottest team in the NHL. Fantasy owners who scurried to the waiver wire to claim the Swedish netminder are sure to be ecstatic about his play. He is making a great case to keep the No. 1 job in Anaheim, even when Jonas Hiller returns from his lower body injury.

Viktor Fasth is expected to start in net again Tuesday as Jonas Hiller (lower body) continues to recover. Fasth is coming off his first misstep of the season, a 6-5 overtime win over the St. Louis Blues. It'll be interesting to see if Fasth can bounce back tonight against the red-hot Chicago Blackhawks. The 30-year-old Fasth and Hiller are battling for the No. 1 job and a solid turn Tuesday could help Fasth gain an edge. He is 5-0-0 on the season with a 1.72 GAA and a .932 save percentage.

Thirty-year-old Viktor Fasth spent a long time in the Swedish second division before finally shining two years ago. Fasth was the best goalie in the Swedish Elite League the last two years but spent the previous years in a lower division before getting his chance at age 28 with AIK. It didn't look good the previous year of 2009-10 when he blew out his ACL in his knee but he turned things around so much that he is now an NHL goaltender. "It took me a while to get to where I am," Fasth added. "I'm what you call maybe a late bloomer. I've heard that expression before." He is 5-0 with a 1.72 GAA and a .932 save percentage in spite of giving up five goals to the Blues in a shootout win on Saturday.

Viktor Fasth had his first misstep of the season, allowing five goals on 31 shots in the Anaheim Ducks' shootout win over the St. Louis Blues. Fasth entered the game unbeaten and had yet to give up more than one goal in four starts. To show how ridiculously good he's been thus far, Fasth's save percentage and GAA jumped to .932 and 1.72, respectively, after Saturday's game. We'll also cut Fasth a bit of a break since the Blues are one of the best teams in the Western Conference. He remains locked in a battle with Jonas Hiller for the Ducks' starting goalie job.

Viktor Fasth is expected to start for the Anaheim Ducks Saturday at St. Louis. Jonas Hiller left Friday's game, as a precaution, due to a lower-body injury and he isn't projected to suit up. Fasth has been great during his brief NHL time, but the Blues will be a dangerous test after dropping their last three games.

Viktor Fasth blocked 11 shots in relief Friday night during the Ducks' 3-1 loss to the Stars. Fasth came in after Jonas Hiller, who made 14 saves on 16 shots, departed after the first period with a lower-body injury. Even if Hiller could've returned, it was at least an excuse for coach Bruce Boudreau to try to change momentum after the ice was heavily tilted toward the Ducks in a first period that saw them get outshot 16-7. Fasth has been brilliant this season, with a 1.06 goals-against average and .957 save percentage and it wouldn't be surprising to see him get the start Saturday, even if Hiller is good to go.

Viktor Fasth considers his first NHL shutout "a little bonus." "It's nothing you go and think about," Fasth said. "You just try to do your best and try to help the team out as much as you can." Fasth has outplayed Jonas Hiller in the early portion of the season and created a goaltending controversy in the process. In the long run, the Ducks will probably end up using Hiller more, but Fasth is a great guy to pickup right now if you're hurting for goaltending.

Viktor Fasth collected his fourth win in a row on Wednesday as the Anaheim Ducks beat the Colorado Avalanche 3-0. The Swedish-born goalie might just run away with Anaheim's starting goalie job at this rate. He stopped all 31 Avs shots for his first career shutout. He's now 4-0-0 to start his late-blooming career, allowing just four goals in four games. Whether you are getting a Jonas Hiller handcuff or just need a goalie, Fasth is absolutely worth an add.

Viktor Fasth is expected to start for Anaheim on Wednesday against Colorado. He is being rewarded for his strong 3-0 start and his impressive 25-save, 2-1 victory over San Jose on Monday. It is early but Fasth appears to be a legitimate threat to steal starts from Jonas Hiller this campaign.
