Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Moves to IR
Markstrom (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Markstrom has missed the last seven games after suffering a sprained MCL in New Jersey's 5-1 win over Boston on Jan. 22. He received a timeline of 4-6 weeks for his recovery, making a return in early or mid-March possible. Markstrom has a 21-9-5 record with three shutouts, a 2.20 GAA and a .912 save percentage through 36 appearances this season. New Jersey recalled Tyler Brennan from AHL Utica on Tuesday to occupy the backup role behind Jake Allen.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Set for 4-6 week absence
Markstrom is expected to be out of action for 4-6 weeks after suffering a sprained MCL, the Devils announced Friday.
Fortunately for Markstrom and the Devils, that recovery period includes the two-week break for the 4 Nations Face-Off, so he won't miss as many games as he otherwise might have. In fact, if the veteran netminder can return in the four-week range, he would only miss seven games and would be ready to face the Stars on Feb. 22. Still, fantasy managers should probably plan for the backstop to miss a little more time and to return in early March. Don't be surprised to see Markstrom land on injured reserve in the next day or two in order to free up a roster spot for Nico Daws or Isaac Poulter to be called up from AHL Utica. Jake Allen figures to see the bulk of the netminding duties in Markstrom's absence.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Will miss time
Markstrom (lower body) is feeling better after sustaining an injury Wednesday versus the Bruins, but he will miss time, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
Markstrom doesn't have a specific timeline for his recovery. Expect Jake Allen to take over the starting role in the short term, while the Devils will make a move to call up a goalie -- likely Nico Daws or Isaac Poulter -- to fill the backup role.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Departs Wednesday's contest
Markstrom (lower body) limped off the ice after a collision with Justin Brazeau in the second period of Wednesday's game against the Bruins, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
Markstrom stopped six of seven shots prior to his injury. The 34-year-old was replaced by Jake Allen between the pipes, and it would likely be Allen to take on a starting role should Markstrom miss additional time. The Devils' next game is Saturday in Montreal.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: In goal Wednesday
Markstrom will get the starting nod at home versus the Bruins on Wednesday, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
Markstrom has lost three straight games during which he posted a 2.29 GAA to go with a 0-1-2 record. Despite the recent slump, the 34-year-old backstop has already reached the 20-win mark for the eighth consecutive season and should be capable of pushing for 30 for just the second time in his career.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Third straight loss
Markstrom made 18 saves on 20 shots in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Ottawa.
Markstrom was beaten twice at even strength on goals by Zack Ostapchuk and Artem Zub in Sunday's defeat. The 34-year-old Markstrom has lost three consecutive contests, and although he's 2-2-3 through seven appearances in January, he's posted a serviceable .912 save percentage and 2.38 GAA in that span. For the season, the 6-foot-6 goaltender holds a 21-9-5 record, .912 save percentage and 2.20 GAA through 35 outings. His next chance to return to the win column will be in a home matchup against the Bruins on Wednesday.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Tending twine Sunday

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Battled brilliantly in loss
Markstrom made 37 saves in a 4-3 overtime loss to Toronto on Thursday.
The Leafs tend to come in waves, and that's exactly what happened Thursday. Markstrom was magnificent at the time, but so were Auston Matthews and William Nylander, who each had two goals. He's been battling since the end of 2024, delivering a 2-2-3 record in his last seven starts. The Devils had a few breakdowns that cost them Thursday, and Markstrom paid the price. Still, the netminder is a great fantasy play with a sparkling 2.40 GAA, fifth-best in the NHL.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Expected to face Toronto
Markstrom is set to start on the road against Toronto on Thursday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Markstrom is 21-8-4 with a 2.15 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 33 starts in 2024-25. He's continued to succeed recently, stopping 101 of 109 shots (.927 save percentage) over his past four starts, though New Jersey struggled to provide him with adequate offense, resulting in Markstrom posting a 2-0-2 record during that stretch. Toronto ranks 13th in goals per game with 3.02.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Stops 27 shots Tuesday
Markstrom stopped 27 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Panthers.
Markstrom played at an elite level in December, going 8-1-1 with a 1.30 GAA and a .937 save percentage across 10 appearances, but his numbers have regressed a bit in recent weeks. He's gone 2-1-2 with a 2.13 GAA and a .917 save percentage in five January appearances. That said, even with the regression, Markstrom remains an excellent fantasy alternative across all formats. The Devils are playing three games over the next five days, though, so it wouldn't be surprising if Markstrom gets some much-needed rest in the coming days after starting five games in a row.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: In goal Tuesday
Markstrom will protect the home net versus Florida on Tuesday, according to Doug Plagens of the Panthers Radio Network.

He has a 21-8-3 record with three shutouts, 2.19 GAA and a .911 save percentage across 32 appearances this season.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Brilliant performance in win
Markstrom made 23 saves in a 3-2 overtime win over the Lightning on Saturday.
Markstrom was sharp -- he made a highlight-reel save on Brayden Point in the third period when he stretched out in desperation with his left arm to make the stop. It preserved the Devils' lead at the time. Markstrom sits fourth in the NHL with a 2.19 GAA and top-13 in save percentage (.911). He's tied with Jake Oettinger for second in wins (21). As expected, Markstrom has been superb in his first campaign with New Jersey.

Markstrom will make his fourth consecutive start. The 34-year-old netminder is 20-8-3 with three shutouts, a 2.20 GAA and a .911 save percentage. He will have his hands full as the Lightning are the top-scoring team in the NHL, averaging 3.69 goals per game in 2024-25.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Falls to Blueshirts in OT
Markstrom turned aside 29 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers.
He put on a goaltending clinic with Igor Shesterkin in a scoreless third period to preserve a 2-2 tie, but Markstrom had little chance in OT of stopping Sam Carrick from converting a 2-on-1 rush. Markstrom hasn't allowed more than three goals in a start since Nov. 29, going 9-2-2 over his last 13 outings with a dazzling 1.61 GAA and .927 save percentage.

Markstrom has conceded two or fewer goals in 10 of his last 12 outings, posting a 9-2-1 record, 1.50 GAA and two shutouts over that stretch. With no back-to-backs on the short-term schedule, the 34-year-old Markstrom could be called into action for each of the next four contests with Jake Allen firmly entrenched in the No. 2 role.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Solid display between pipes
Markstrom stopped 21 of 23 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.
Markstrom bounced back from two straight road losses, against Anaheim and San Jose, and he recorded his seventh win over his last nine appearances. He's gone 7-2-0 with an elite 1.46 GAA and a pristine .927 save percentage in that span, so fantasy managers should continue to trust the 34-year-old netminder.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Starting in Seattle
Markstrom will patrol the road crease against the Kraken on Monday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Markstrom has lost back-to-back games in regulation for the first time this season -- the Swedish netminder allowed a combined six goals split evenly between losses to Anaheim and San Jose on the Devils' current four-game West Coast road trip. Markstrom has a 4-2-0 record, 2.58 GAA and .892 save percentage in seven career appearances against the Kraken.

Devils' Jacob Markstrom: Sunk by last-minute goal
Markstrom made 21 saves in a 3-2 loss to the Sharks on Saturday.
Markstrom has lost two in a row, but he remains third in the NHL with a sparkling 2.18 GAA and second in wins (19). His team wasn't great in front of him, and there were some unlucky bounces off the officials that contributed to San Jose's goals. Plus the winning goal went in with just 25 seconds left in the third period. Markstrom will leave this behind him and be dialed in next time out.
