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
$Signed a three-year, $11.25 million contract with the Wild in July of 2023.
Loses Friday, starting Saturday
GMinnesota Wild
April 11, 2025
Gustavsson will start Saturday's road game in Vancouver, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Gustavsson was tagged with four goals on 29 shots before he was pulled in the third period of Friday's 4-2 loss to the Flames. That moved him to 30-19-6 with a 2.58 GAA and a .914 save percentage over 56 starts this season. He's won just two of his last seven outings (2-3-2) and will now be starting on back-to-back days, though the Canucks' forward group has been diminished by injuries. Despite that, they've scored 18 times over the last four games, winning three of them, so they'll still be a formidable opponent.

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
In starter's crease for Sweden
GMinnesota Wild
February 14, 2025
Gustavsson was working in the starter's crease ahead of Sweden's 4 Nations Face-Off clash with Finland on Saturday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports, indicating he'll get the starting nod.
ANALYSIS
Gustavsson stopped 24 of 28 shots against Canada on Wednesday, suffering an overtime loss to the tournament favorites. Apparently, the netminder's display was enough to convince Sweden to go back to the 26-year-old in a crucial matchup Saturday. Assuming Gustavsson gets the start, he'll go up against Kevin Lankinen, who will be in the crease for Finland.
