NHL - 2026-12-29

Every game on the night, each with both clubs behind it: who is in goal, how they score and concede, and how they do on special teams.

How to read this page

What the columns mean and how to read them
▶

One card per game, one panel per club. The goaltending line reads In goal once a club has named its starter, Expected in goal while that is still someone else’s guess, and Projected in goal when nobody has said — then it is the goalie with the biggest share of his club’s starts, unless he played the night before. Below it, goals, shots and special teams sit beside the club’s league rank, where 1 is the best at it.
