Minnesota Wild
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gustavsson's fall in 2023-24 was epic. His GAA went up almost a full goal (2.10 to 3.06) and his save percentage went from elite to below average (.931 to .899). Together, he and Marc Andre Fleury were the second-worst pairing in the league in GSAx (goals saved above expected) with a -16.72. Gustavsson's own GSAx nosedived more than 28 goals. He did rebound a bit in the second half, going 7-5-2 with a .906 save percentage after the All-Star Game. Can he rebound? Probably, but it's hard to know how far. That's why the 26-year-old netminder has been the subject of summer trade rumors because elite prospect Jesper Wallstedt is waiting in the wings. Gustavsson's best option may be in another city. He's a watch-and-wait option for your draft unless risk is your middle name. Read Past Outlooks

Among NHL's best in net so far
GMinnesota Wild
December 31, 2024
Gustavsson made 43 saves in a 5-3 win over the Predators on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Gustavsson also picked up a power-play assist on Mats Zuccarello's second-period snipe after wiring a stretch pass from his goal line all the way to Joel Eriksson Ek at the Nashville blue line. Those 43 saves were the third-highest total of his career. Gustavsson now ranks third in the NHL with a .924 save percentage, fourth with a 2.28 GAA and is tied for third with 17 wins. He's a mid-season Vezina contender.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Gustavsson staked his claim to an NHL job with gusto last year, recording a 22-9-7 record, a 2.10 GAA and a .931 save percentage with three shutouts in 39 games. He's set to once again share time with Marc-Andre Fleury in between the pipes for the Wild, but it's clear that this is a battle Gustavsson will ultimately win as Fleury's NHL time is running out. Fantasy managers shouldn't be scared of the playing-time split, as Gustavsson will likely continue to benefit from easing into the No. 1 job with a veteran safety net behind him. This is a tandem to target collectively, though coming away with either Gustavsson or Fleury alone isn't a disaster.
Gustavsson saw action in 18 games for the rebuilding Senators a season ago, managing a 5-12-1 record, 3.55 GAA and .892 save percentage. He was flipped to Minnesota in July in exchange for veteran goaltender Cam Talbot. Gustavsson will play this entire season at age 24 and has just 27 NHL appearances under his belt, but he should be considered the favorite to back up future Hall-of-Famer Marc-Andre Fleury this coming year. The Wild will almost certainly limit the workload of the 37-year-old Fleury, so Gustavsson could easily play 30-plus games for Minnesota in 2022-23.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could return over weekend
GMinnesota Wild
December 18, 2024
Gustavsson, who has been ruled out for Wednesday's home game against the Panthers due to a lower-body injury, is considered day-to-day and hasn't been ruled out for Minnesota's back-to-back set over the weekend, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Gustavsson will be unavailable for a second consecutive game Wednesday, but head coach John Hynes is optimistic that the netminder isn't dealing with a long-term injury. The Wild will wait to see how Gustavsson responds to Wednesday's on-ice activity before determining his status for the weekend, but it's possible that he'll be back in action at home against Utah on Friday or on the road against Winnipeg on Saturday.
