Jesper Wallstedt News: Tending twine Saturday

Published on October 18, 2025

Wallstedt will protect the road net in Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

Wallstedt will handle the second half of a back-to-back after Filip Gustavsson started in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals. In his season debut against the Kings, Wallstedt stopped 31 of 34 shots to pick up a shootout win. The 22-year-old has handled a backup role so far in 2025-26.
