How to Read Starting Goalie Status

Confirmed
The team or a reliable beat report has named the starter. Late scratches still happen (warmup injuries, illness), which is why we keep a history and flag any change.
Expected
Strong signals point to one goalie (first off the ice at morning skate, coach hints, the usual rotation) but nothing is official yet.
Projected
A forecast from rotation patterns, rest and the schedule. Most starters two or three days out are projected, and they change more often.

2nd night of back-to-back means the team also played the night before. Most NHL teams split back-to-backs between their two goalies, so the regular starter is more likely to rest and the backup more likely to start. That makes a projected starter on the second night less certain, and the backup a possible streaming option.

How often we check: starter status comes from LineupExperts. We poll it every 15 minutes from about 10 AM to 10 PM ET and record each change, so "Confirmed at" is the first time we saw the confirmation and "Changed from" shows the goalie who was listed before a switch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often are starting goalies updated?

We check the LineupExperts starting goalie feed every 15 minutes from about 10 AM to 10 PM ET and refresh this page when a starter or status changes. Otherwise the page itself refreshes every few minutes. The confirmation times shown are when we first saw each change.

What's the difference between confirmed, expected and projected?

Confirmed means the team or a reliable beat report has named the starter. Expected means strong signals (morning skate, first off the ice, coach hints) point to one goalie but nothing is official. Projected is a forecast from rotation patterns, rest and back-to-backs, and is common two or three days out.

What does 2nd night of back-to-back mean for goalies?

The team also played the night before. Most NHL teams split back-to-backs between their goalies, so the usual starter is more likely to sit and the backup more likely to start. Treat a projected starter on the second night with extra caution.

How can I use this for fantasy hockey?

Connect your ESPN or Fantrax league in League settings to highlight the goalies on your roster and see which starters are still available. Start probabilities and the back-to-back flags on this page help you decide who to start or stream.
