Next Game
Eligibility
The goalkeeper was excellent in this one, stopping 29-of-29 shots-on-goal on the way to a 2-0 shutout win on the road against a Blackhawk team that has now lost their last 6 games-played.
Fantasy Impact
The Veteran now has two shutouts on the season and moves to 16-28-5. The goalie holds an .891 save-percentage with a 3.12 goals-against-average after shutting the Blackhawks down.
Grubauer had a rough outing in this one. He was solid for the first 15:05 of play until Gabriel Vilardi put one between the pipes to give the Kings a 1-0 lead to close the period. The goalkeeper surrendered two more in period two and his fourth and final goal in period three. The Kraken fell 4-2 in Los Angeles and will look to rebound in the rematch on Monday night.
Fantasy Impact
The Veteran stopped 23-of-27 shots-on-goal for an .852 save-percentage. The loss drops him to 15-27-5 on the season. It was an underwhelming performance for the goalkeeper after playing well over his last couple starts.
Grubauer has been very good as of late, but the goals he has been giving up have been coming in streaks, but then he tends to settle down again. The goalkeeper was perfect through one period before surrendering two quick goals in period two. The goalkeeper settled down after that and went on to stop 24-of-26 shots-on-goal allowing the Kraken to get the 4-2 road win.
Fantasy Impact
Grubauer has now won three of his last four starts and will look to keep things going in a positive direction. The veteran moves to 15-26-5 with a .889 save-percentage and 3.17 goals-against-average.
The goalkeeper gave up two first period goals, putting the Kraken in a 2-0 deficit early. The first goal came on an assist by Dylan Larkin to Joe Velano. The second came by Taro Hirose, his first of the season. Grubauer settled down after that, and was perfect the rest of the way. The Kraken scored three unanswered in the third period and went on to win 4-2.
Fantasy Impact
The goalkeeper wasn’t contested too much in this game, and ended up stopping 21-of-23 shots-on-goal for a .913 save-percentage. He moves to 14-26-5 and continues to try to do the best he can in his new home in Seattle.
Philipp Grubauer endured his 24th loss of the season at the hands of the Carolina Hurricanes.
Fantasy Impact
The losses keep piling up for the Seattle Kraken in their inaugural season. Grubauer is having the worst statistical season of his career, sporting a dismal 3.17 GAA and a .888 save percentage. Grubauer has largely been the victim of being on a bad team but is really hard to rely on in fantasy right now.
