Wild goalies: Two won’t be a crowd
The NHL will increase its regular season from 82 to 84 games starting in 2026-27, requiring each team to use goaltenders for an additional 120 minutes.
Two goaltenders competing for the same position described themselves as strong competitors this year but also expressed mutual support despite the rivalry.
A head coach acknowledged a goalie’s strong performance this year and especially during the playoffs, influencing the goaltender selection.
Trade discussions may occur if another team shows strong interest in a goalie.
