Update

Askarov turned aside 38 shots in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Penguins.

Analysis

The Penguins dominated the second period and took a 5-1 lead on an Anthony Mantha power-play tally early in the third, but Askarov stood on his head down the stretch as the Sharks mounted the biggest late comeback in franchise history. The 23-year-old netminder had ceded the prior three starts to Alex Nedeljkovic due to an illness, but Askarov seems ready to resume No. 1 duties in the San Jose cre

The 23-year-old netminder has a 10-6-1 record, 2.96 GAA and .908 save percentage in 17 appearances.

Dec. 2, 2025 Askarov stopped 31 of 34 shots in Monday's 6-3 win over the Mammoth. - Askarov earned his fifth win in his last six outings. The teams traded five goals in the first period, with the Sharks leading 3-2 before piling on three more in the second to give Askarov more than enough support. The 23-year-old has allowed 15 goals over that six-game hot stretch, and he continues to cement his status as the team's No. 1 option in net over Alex Nedeljkovic. Askarov is up to a 10-6-1 record with a 2.96 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 17 appearances. The Sharks host the Capitals on Wednesday before embarking on a five-game road trip. None
Dec. 1, 2025 Askarov was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, indicating that he'll draw the home start against the Mammoth. - Askarov has been largely effective recently, outside of a performance against the Avalanche on Wednesday in which he allowed four goals on 19 shots (.789 save percentage). Across his last five starts, he's gone 4-1-0 with a 2.65 GAA and .919 save percentage.

Nov. 29, 2025 Askarov stopped 32 of 34 shots in Friday's 3-2 win over the Canucks. - Askarov was coming off a subpar performance against the Avalanche on Wednesday, where he stopped 15 of 19 shots before being lifted in a 6-0 loss. However, the 23-year-old bounced back admirably and was terrific in leading the Sharks to a big win at home. Askarov has posted a save percentage of at least .910 in nine of his last 11 appearances, going 8-3-0 with a 2.09 GAA and a .934 save percentage in that span. None
Nov. 28, 2025 Askarov will defend the home net versus Vancouver on Friday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports. - Askarov has been outstanding in November, though he did have a difficult start Wednesday against the mighty Avalanche, giving up four goals on 19 shots before he was pulled with just over 15 minutes to go in the second period. Askarov is 7-2-0 with a 1.87 GAA and a .944 save percentage in nine November starts. The Canucks are tied for 16th in goal production this season, generating 3.08 goals per game. None
Nov. 27, 2025 Askarov was pulled from Wednesday's 6-0 loss to the Avalanche. He was tagged with the loss after allowing four goals on 19 shots before being lifted. - Askarov got the start against a red-hot Avalanche team but didn't have a good result, and he saw his three-game winning run end after this woeful performance. Despite the blowout loss here, Askarov has done a good job between the pipes for the Sharks this month, so fantasy managers shouldn't overreact to this outing. Askarov has gone 7-2-0 with a 1.87 GAA and a .944 save percentage even after allowing four goals on 19 shots Wednesday, which speaks volumes of the way he's been playing lately. None
Nov. 26, 2025 Askarov was the first goalie off during Wednesday's morning skate, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports, indicating that he'll draw the road start against Colorado. - Askarov is in the midst of a hot streak in which he's gone 7-1-0 with a 1.47 GAA and .955 save percentage. He drew a home start against Colorado on Nov. 1 and turned aside 36 of 38 shots (.947 save percentage in a 3-2 overtime victory. None
Nov. 23, 2025 Askarov will be in net for Sunday's game against the Bruins,Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports. - Askarov has been on a November heater for the Sharks, putting up video game numbers. In seven starts this month, the 23-year-old is 6-1-0 with a 1.54 GAA and a .957 save percentage. He'll look to build on those impressive stats Sunday against the Bruins, who have been held to three goals or less in the last five games in a row. None
Nov. 21, 2025 Askarov stopped 31 of 34 shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings. - Askarov picked up his sixth win in his last seven outings despite allowing three goals for the first time in that span. The third tally was Adrian Kempe's game-tying goal at 19:01 of the third period, but Askarov stayed firm and turned aside all three of the Kings' shootout attempts after not facing a shot in overtime. The 23-year-old netminder improved to 7-5-1 with a 2.97 GAA and a .905 save percentage in 13 appearances. The Sharks' next two games are at home in a back-to-back set versus the Senators on Saturday and the Bruins on Sunday. Expect Askarov and Alex Nedeljkovic to split those starts. None
Nov. 20, 2025 Askarov was the first goalie off the ice ahead of Thursday's home matchup with Los Angeles, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes. - Askarov has been hard to beat of late, going 5-1-0 with a 1.31 GAA in his last six contests. With the 23-year-old netminder on top of his game, he figures to see plenty of work ahead of Alex Nedeljkovic. Through just 12 outings, Askarov has already set a new personal best with six wins and should be capable of challenging for the 20-win threshold at least. None
Nov. 18, 2025 Askarov was the first netminder off at morning skate, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports, which indicates he'll guard the home cage Tuesday versus the Mammoth. - Askarov has been tremendous lately after a slow start to the campaign, but his four-game winning streak was snapped during his last start in Calgary on Thursday. Still, he stopped 34 of 35 shots in that game but didn't receive any offensive support in a 2-0 loss. To put things in perspective, the 2020 first-round pick has a 1.19 GAA and an otherworldly .965 save percentage across his last five outings, so he'll look to get back in the win column Tuesday after receiving the night off Saturday in Seattle. The Mammoth are coming off a 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks on Monday, so the Sharks have the clear rest advantage. None
Nov. 13, 2025 Askarov will patrol the crease on the road against the Flames on Thursday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Askarov is riding a four-game winning streak during which he posted a 1.23 GAA and .963 save percentage. After an underwhelming start to the year, in which the 23-year-old netminder recorded a disastrous 4.69 GAA, it seems Askarov has rediscovered his form. None
Nov. 11, 2025 Askarov will defend the road net against Minnesota on Tuesday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports. - Askarov is coming off a 38-save performance in Saturday's 3-1 win over Florida. He has won three straight outings to improve to 4-4-1 this season while surrendering 32 goals on 287 shots. Minnesota ranks 20th in the league with 2.88 goals per game this campaign. None
Nov. 8, 2025 Askarov will start at home versus the Panthers on Saturday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports. - Askarov won his last start with 28 saves on 29 shots in a 6-1 victory over the Kraken on Wednesday. He's getting the second half of a back-to-back after Alex Nedeljkovic was in goal for Friday's 2-1 win over the Jets. The Panthers have scored 19 goals over their last six games. None
Nov. 5, 2025 Askarov is set to start on the road against Seattle on Wednesday, per Max Miller of NHL.com. - Askarov has a 2-4-1 record, 4.29 GAA and .862 save percentage in seven outings in 2025-26. While he's had some rough starts, he did stop 36 of 38 shots to earn a 3-2 overtime victory over Colorado in his last start Saturday. Seattle is 6-2-4 and ranks 24th in goals per game with 2.75. None
Nov. 1, 2025 Askarov is expected to start at home against Colorado on Saturday, per Max Miller of NHL.com. - Askarov has a 1-4-1 record, 4.69 GAA and .844 save percentage in six outings this year. The 23-year-old has surrendered four or more goals in five of his six appearances. Colorado is 7-1-4 and ranks second in goals per game with 3.75, so this is a very tough assignment for the young goaltender. None
Oct. 29, 2025 Askarov allowed four goals on 14 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Kings. - The Sharks dominated possession, but Askarov wasn't good enough on the few chances the Kings accumulated. The four goals came from a pair of fourth-liners and a pair of defensemen, so Askarov wasn't even sunk by the Kings' best players. He continues to offer subpar goaltending, though this is part of the growing pains as the Sharks try to move from rebuilding to at least being competitive. On the year, Askarov is 1-4-1 with a 4.69 GAA and an .844 save percentage. The Sharks host the Devils on Thursday. None
Oct. 28, 2025 Askarov was the first goalie off Tuesday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home versus the Kings. - Askarov will make his third straight appearance between the pipes for the Sharks after having split the opening seven games with Alex Nedeljkovic. With a 1-3-1 record and 4.80 GAA, it's a little surprising Askarov is continuing to get a heavier workload. A back-to-back versus the Avs and Wings on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, should give both netminders some work in the coming days. None
Oct. 27, 2025 Askarov stopped 28 of 33 shots in Sunday's 6-5 overtime win over the Wild. - Askarov allowed five or more goals for the third time across five starts this season. The 23-year-old netminder, who started consecutive games for the first time Friday and Sunday, might return to the bench ahead of Tuesday's game against the Kings since the Sharks have been rotating netminders regularly so far this season. Askarov hasn't inspired a ton of confidence between the pipes, either -- he's gone 1-3-1 with a 4.80 GAA and an .855 save percentage in his five starts so far. None
Oct. 26, 2025 Askarov will start Sunday's game against the Wild, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports Sunday. - Askarov will start consecutive games for the first time this season after participating in a true 50-50 split with Alex Nedeljkovic to begin the season. The 23-year-old is coming off of a strong performance against the red-hot Devils, stopping 26 of 28 shots he faced in the loss. He will face a Wild team that is really struggling offensively this season, particularly at even strength. Minnesota has just 10 goals at 5-on-5 this season, tied for the fewest in the league. None
Oct. 25, 2025 Askarov stopped 26 of 28 shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Devils. The third goal was an empty-netter with 47 seconds left in the game. - Askarov allowed two power-play goals to New Jersey defenseman Dougie Hamilton, but turned in a valiant effort in Friday's defeat. By the time the Devils added a third goal, the 23-year-old netminder was already on the bench with the Sharks pushing for a late equalizer. The Sharks have been rotating goalies this season, and Askarov hasn't been a very reliable option. In four starts, he's gone 0-3-1 with a 4.81 GAA and a poor .857 save percentage. None
Oct. 24, 2025 Askarov will patrol the visiting crease in New Jersey on Friday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. - Askarov is in need of a good performance as he has allowed 17 goals on 105 shots (.838 save percentage) across three starts. The 23-year-old came into the season as the Sharks' No. 1 goaltender, but another poor outing could get him sent to AHL San Jose. Askarov will face the Devils, who are tied for second in NHL scoring, averaging 4.00 goals. None
Oct. 22, 2025 Askarov stopped 23 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Islanders. - Askarov and Alex Nedeljkovic have been splitting the workload for the Sharks to start the season, but the former's results haven't been good. Aside from the fact that he's lost in his three starts for a winless Sharks team, the main issue is that Asrakov has given up at least four goals each time. Through his three appearances, he's stopped only 88 of the 105 shots he's faced -- good for a ballooned 5.73 GAA and a poor .838 save percentage. Fantasy managers shouldn't consider starting Askarov in most formats given his early-season struggles. None
Oct. 20, 2025 Askarov will be between the pipes on the road against the Islanders on Tuesday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. - Askarov and Alex Nedeljkovic have been splitting the workload for the Sharks to start the season and it seems that trend will continue. In his two outings this year, the 23-year-old Askarov remains winless, going 0-1-1 with a 6.45 GAA and .833 save percentage. Given the young team around him and the timeshare in the crease, Askarov could struggle to put up wins this year, making him a poor fantasy option in redraft formats. None
Oct. 17, 2025 Askarov will patrol the visiting crease in Utah on Friday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports. - Askarov had a tough go of it in his season debut Saturday against Anaheim, allowing seven goals on 43 shots in an overtime loss. Askarov is highly regarded -- he was selected 11th overall by Nashville in 2020 -- and will get a chance to redeem himself against the Mammoth, who are averaging only 2.00 goals per game, 30th in the NHL. None
Oct. 11, 2025 Askarov stopped 36 of 43 shots in Saturday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Ducks. - Askarov didn't exactly impress in his first start of the season, squandering two separate multi-goal leads before giving up a goal to Leo Carlsson in overtime to complete the collapse. It's a start like this that shows why the Sharks seem intent on splitting time between Askarov and Alex Nedeljkovic early in the campaign. The 23-year-old Askarov is the goalie of the future, and he'll get his chances in 2025-26, but fantasy managers may want to see him as more of a streaming option when he gets a favorable matchup. The Sharks' next game is a tough one at home versus the Hurricanes on Tuesday. None
Oct. 10, 2025 Askarov will guard the cage in Saturday's home clash versus Anaheim, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. - Askarov watched from the bench during the Sharks' Opening Night clash with the Golden Knights on Thursday. Heading into the 2025-26 campaign, the 23-year-old backstop was expected to be the No. 1 option ahead of Alex Nedeljkovic, but it seems perhaps the team is going to more evenly split the workload this year. None
Oct. 4, 2025 Askarov will patrol the visiting crease in Utah on Saturday, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News. - Askarov is slated to start Opening Night versus Vegas on Thursday. Askarov has been considered the Sharks' goaltender of the future since his trade from Nashville in August of 2023. Askarov was 4-6-2 with a 3.10 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 13 appearances with San Jose in 2024-25. He excelled at the AHL level last season, posting an 11-9-1 mark with a 2.45 GAA and a .923 save percentage in 22 regular-season games. None
Oct. 3, 2025 Askarov was the first goalie to leave the ice Friday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, indicating he'll patrol the crease on the road against Vegas. - With Askarov taking the start Friday, it seems likely that Alex Nedeljkovic will get the nod for Saturday's clash with Utah before Askarov takes the crease for Opening Night against Vegas at home Thursday. Looking ahead to the rest of the 2025-26 campaign. Askarov figures to see the bulk of the workload for San Jose, though Nedeljkovic could certainly see plenty of starts as well. None
Oct. 1, 2025 Askarov is expected to guard the home goal against San Jose on Wednesday, per Max Miller of NHL.com. - Askarov had a 2.45 GAA and a .923 save percentage in 22 regular-season appearances with AHL San Jose in 2024-25. He also posted a 3.10 GAA and an .896 in 13 outings with the Sharks. Askarov is set to open this season as the Sharks' No. 1 goaltender. None
Sept. 26, 2025 Askarov will patrol the home crease versus Vegas on Friday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports. - Askarov is considered the Sharks' goaltender of the future and that should begin this season as he has been penciled in as the No. 1 starter. Askarov played in 13 NHL games in 2024-25, posting a 4-6-2 record to go with a 3.10 GAA and an .896 save percentage. Look for Askarov to play in 45-50 contests in 2025-26. None
April 3, 2025 Askarov (lower body) traveled with AHL San Jose and will be available for the Barracuda's matchups against Colorado on Friday and Saturday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports. - Askarov sustained a lower-body injury in mid-February but has been practicing recently and will be available to return to game action this weekend. Over 19 AHL appearances this year, he's gone 10-7-1 with a 2.52 GAA and .922 save percentage. None
April 2, 2025 Askarov (lower body) is backing up Gabriel Carriere in AHL San Jose's game Wednesday versus AHL Ontario, Josh Frojelin of San Jose Hockey Now reports. - Askarov will dress for the first time since Feb. 19, but he won't be the starter in his return to action. However, it looks like he's close to getting back between the pipes in a game. Given how much time he's missed, it wouldn't be surprising for Askarov to close out 2024-25 in the AHL before competing for an NHL job in training camp. None
March 19, 2025 Askarov (lower body) is expected back on at practice with AHL San Jose in the coming week, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports Wednesday. - Askarov won't be ready to rejoin the Sharks until at least the end of March or the start of April -- though the organization may decide to let him finish out the year with the Barracuda instead of bringing him back to the NHL. In his 13 appearances for the Sharks, the 22-year-old backstop went 4-6-2 with a 3.10 GAA and .896 save percentage. None
Feb. 19, 2025 Askarov (lower body) was hurt in Wednesday's game between AHL San Jose and Ontario, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports. - Peng adds that Askarov was favoring his left leg, though an official update on the prospect goaltender was unavailable. In any case, it's likely Askarov won't be available in the short term if the Sharks need to call up a goalie. None
Feb. 2, 2025 Askarov was reassigned to AHL San Jose on Sunday. - The Sharks recalled Vitek Vanecek (face) from his minor-league conditioning assignment in a corresponding move. Askarov will play in the AHL All-Star Classic on Monday and participate in Sunday's AHL All-Star Skills Competition. He has a 4-6-2 record with a 3.10 GAA and an .896 save percentage in 13 NHL appearances this season. None
Jan. 30, 2025 Askarov stopped seven of 11 shots in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Kraken. - Consistency continues to elude Askarov, who has allowed three or more goals in five of his last six games. The Kraken blitzed him in the second period, scoring three goals in a span of 3:55 before head coach Ryan Warsofsky put Alexandar Georgiev in. For the season, Askarov is 4-6-2 with a 3.10 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 13 appearances. It's looking more and more likely that he'll return to AHL San Jose once Vitek Vanecek (face) completes his conditioning stint. The Sharks are off until Tuesday's game versus the Canadiens, and by that time, Vanecek may be ready to come off injured reserve. None
Jan. 29, 2025 Askarov is set to start in Thursday's road clash against Seattle, per Max Miller of NHL.com on Wednesday. - Askarov stopped 29 of 30 shots en route to a 2-1 win over Pittsburgh on Monday. He's 4-5-2 with a 2.87 GAA and a .905 save percentage in 12 appearances in 2024-25. Seattle is tied for 17th in goals per game with 2.92. None
Jan. 28, 2025 Askarov stopped 29 of 30 shots in Monday's 2-1 win over the Penguins. - Askarov earned his first win since Jan. 4, snapping a four-game stretch in which he went 0-3-0 with a 4.51 GAA and an .852 save percentage. This was a step in the right direction, but between his lack of consistency and the Sharks' defensive woes, it's hard to trust Askarov in most fantasy formats -- even if he has an occasional strong outing from time to time. None
Jan. 27, 2025 Askarov will defend the home cage Monday against the Penguins, per Max Miller of NHL.com. - Askarov allowed three goals on 17 shots after replacing Alexandar Georgiev in the middle stanza of Saturday's 7-2 loss to Florida. The 22-year-old Askarov has conceded at least three goals in four consecutive outings, and he hasn't been in the win column since Jan. 4. The Russian netminder will attempt to earn his fourth win of the campaign against a Pittsburgh club that is tied for 17th in the NHL with 2.92 goals per game. None
Jan. 25, 2025 Askarov stopped 14 of 17 shots in relief of Alexandar Georgiev in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Panthers. - Askarov will avoid taking a result from this game, but that's about the only positive. The Panthers eased up after a four-goal second period, but Askarov didn't do much better than Georgiev after entering early in the middle frame. He's winless over his last four outings, and Askarov has allowed 16 goals in that span. The 22-year-old remains at 3-5-2 through 11 appearances, but his GAA rose to 3.04 and his save percentage dropped to .898 with this performance. The Sharks' next game is Monday at home versus the Penguins. None
Jan. 24, 2025 Askarov stopped 32 of 38 shots in Thursday's 6-5 loss to the Predators. - Askarov, who was dealt from Nashville to San Jose this past offseason, fared no better against his former team in this game than Alexandar Georgiev did Tuesday in Music City. This was Askarov's third straight loss, and he's allowed 13 goals in that span. The 22-year-old is down to 3-5-2 with a 2.93 GAA and a .903 save percentage over 10 contests. It's a poor time for a slump, as Vitek Vanecek (face) could resume practicing soon, and it's possible his return will lead to Askarov's return to the AHL if he can't get his performance back on track. Neither Askarov nor Georgiev will be recommended in fantasy for Saturday's home game against the Panthers. None
Jan. 23, 2025 Askarov is expected to guard the home net against Nashville on Thursday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. - Askarov will attempt to get back into the win column after losing his past two starts while allowing seven goals on 53 shots (.868 save percentage). He's 3-4-2 with a 2.57 GAA and a .912 save percentage in nine outings in 2024-25. Nashville ranks 28th in goals per game with 2.63. None
Jan. 20, 2025 Askarov will start Monday's road game against Boston, Sheng Peng of San JoseHockeyNow.com reports. - Askarov sat out five of the Sharks' last six games, but he'll tend the twine in the first half of a back-to-back set Monday. Over three starts this month, the 22-year-old has gone 2-1-0 with a 2.01 GAA and .922 save percentage. None
Jan. 11, 2025 Askarov allowed three goals on 22 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Wild. - The Wild's top line scored in each period, though the last goal came with Askarov attempting to get off the ice for an extra attacker. Since he was caught in his own zone when the puck went in, the goal was still charged to him despite the 22-year-old having no chance to play the shot. He's had few poor outings so far, but this was among his worst at the NHL level this season. Askarov is down to 3-3-2 with a 2.39 GAA and a .917 save percentage over eight appearances. The Sharks begin a five-game road trip when they visit Detroit on Tuesday, and it wouldn't be surprising for Askarov to start three of those games, as Alexandar Georgiev hasn't done anything to justify earning more playing time. None
Jan. 10, 2025 Askarov will patrol the home crease versus Minnesota on Saturday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports. - Askarov has been outstanding in limited action this season, going 3-2-2 with a 2.30 GAA and a .923 save percentage for the lowly Sharks. Askarov has spent most of the season at the AHL level, where he was 9-4-1 with a 2.00 GAA and a .938 save percentage in 14 appearances. The Wild are scoring 3.00 goals per game this season. None
Jan. 4, 2025 Askarov will protect the home net against New Jersey on Saturday, per Max Miller of NHL.com. - Askarov is coming off a 24-save performance in Thursday's 2-1 win over Tampa Bay. He has a 2-2-2 record with a 2.35 GAA and a .921 save percentage through six NHL appearances this season. New Jersey is tied for 10th in the league with 3.22 goals per game in 2024-25. None
Jan. 3, 2025 Askarov stopped 24 of 25 shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Lightning. - Askarov wasn't tested too much, but he still pulled off quite the feat in quieting one of the league's best offenses. This was Askarov's first win since he was called up to cover the absence of Vitek Vanecek (face). For the season, Askarov is 2-2-2 with a 2.35 GAA and a .921 save percentage over six outings. The 22-year-old should continue to push Alexandar Georgiev for playing time, though another tough matchup awaits in Saturday's matinee home game versus the Devils. None
Jan. 2, 2025 Askarov was the first goaltender off the ice at morning skate and is slated to defend the home crease versus Tampa Bay on Thursday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. - Askarov is 1-2-2 with the Sharks this season, surrendering 13 goals on 153 shots (.915 save percentage) as he is making his case to take over the top job in San Jose. The 22-year-old was selected 11th overall in 2020 by Nashville and was dealt to San Jose in the offseason. Askarov has a tough matchup, as the Lightning are averaging a league-high 3.94 goals per game this season. None
Dec. 28, 2024 Askarov will protect the home net versus Calgary on Saturday, according to Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now. - Askarov is coming off a 20-save effort in a 4-3 loss to Vancouver on Monday. He has surrendered 11 goals on 121 shots en route to a 1-1-2 record with the Sharks this season. Calgary ranks 25th in the league with 2.71 goals per game in 2024-25. None
Dec. 23, 2024 Askarov was the first goalie off Monday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports, indicating that he'll draw the start on the road against the Canucks. - Askarov started Saturday against Edmonton and turned aside 39 of 42 shots in the overtime loss, and he'll be in the net for a second consecutive game Monday. Although the 22-year-old netminder has had to settle for a 1-0-2 record over his first three NHL starts of the season, he's been relatively solid over a limited sample, posting a 2.30 GAA and .928 save percentage. None
Dec. 21, 2024 Askarov will patrol the road crease in Edmonton on Saturday, according to Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now. - Askarov is considered the Sharks' goaltender of the future. He has started a pair of NHL games this season, going 1-0-1 while allowing four goals on 55 shots. Askarov has excelled at the AHL level this season, as he is 9-4-1 with a 2.00 GAA and a .938 save percentage. The Oilers will be a tough matchup for Askarov as they are averaging 3.28 goals per game in 2024-25. None
Dec. 18, 2024 Askarov was recalled from AHL San Jose on Wednesday. - Askarov's promotion comes after Vitek Vanecek was hit by an errant puck during Tuesday's matchup with Winnipeg. Considering Alexandar Georgiev has given up a combined seven goals on 53 shots (.868 save percentage) in his last two outings, the Sharks may have been planning to give Tuesday's start versus Colorado to Vanecek. Instead, it could be an opportunity for Askarov to make his third NHL appearance this season -- or the team will simply go back to Georgiev. None
Nov. 26, 2024 Askarov was assigned to AHL San Jose on Tuesday. - Askarov picked up his first win as a Shark on Monday in a 7-2 victory over the Kings. Given his performance, this transaction could be a paper move to allow San Jose to accrue cap space, but that remains to be seen. Through two NHL appearances in 2024-25, Askarov is 1-0-1 with a .927 save percentage and a 1.96 GAA. None
Nov. 25, 2024 Askarov will tend the home twine Monday in a divisional matchup versus the Kings, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News. - Askarov will make his second start of the season and first on home ice. The 22-year-old was solid in his Sharks debut Thursday against the Blues -- he turned aside 29 of 31 shots but came away with a shootout loss. The Kings rank 17th in the NHL with 3.00 goals per game through 21 contests. None
Nov. 22, 2024 Askarov made 29 saves on 31 shots in Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Blues. - Askarov got off to a less-than-ideal start in his debut with the Sharks, allowing a goal just 11 seconds into the contest, but he settled in as the game went along. The 22-year-old currently has a chance to earn a role in the crease while Vitek Vanecek tends to an upper-body injury. Askarov inked a two-year deal with San Jose after being acquired in a trade from Nashville in August. Through four NHL appearances, the 22-year-old is 1-1-1 with a 2.38 GAA and a .921 save percentage. None
Nov. 21, 2024 Askarov will defend the road crease in St. Louis on Thursday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. - Askarov is considered the Sharks' goaltender of the future and he will make his San Jose debut Thursday after spending the first six weeks in the AHL. Askarov was 6-3-0 with a 1.92 GAA and a .939 save percentage in nine appearances in the AHL before his recall. He will face the Blues, who are 29th in NHL scoring, averaging 2.45 goals per game. None
Nov. 18, 2024 Askarov was recalled from AHL San Jose on Monday. - Askarov was sent to the minors ahead of the regular season, but he'll join the NHL club after Vitek Vanecek (undisclosed) sustained an injury Saturday against the Penguins. Askarov is the best goaltending prospect in pro hockey and has gotten off to a hot start in the AHL this season, posting a 6-3-0 record, 1.92 GAA and .939 save percentage over nine games. Mackenzie Blackwood and Vanecek have been inconsistent early in the 2024-25 campaign, so it's possible that Askarov sticks with the Sharks if he performs well in the near future. None
Oct. 4, 2024 Askarov (lower body) was demoted to AHL San Jose on Friday. - When Askarov was acquired by San Jose in a trade from Nashville during the offseason, there was speculation that he would supplant Mackenzie Blackwood and Vitek Vanecek as the No. 1 option between the pipes for the Sharks. Instead, the 22-year-old Askarov has been sent down to the minors to open the season, perhaps in part due to the lower-body injury that limited him during training camp. Even with the demotion, it seems unlikely this will be the last time Askarov graces the NHL roster this year. None
Oct. 1, 2024 Askarov (lower body) skated on his own Monday for the first time during training camp, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. - Askarov will most likely not be ready for Opening Night, but he seems to be progressing well with his recovery. The 22-year-old told reporters Sept. 21 that his injury was not significant, and that he hoped to return to the ice in short order, according to Miller. Askarov was a first-round pick by Nashville in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, and he was acquired in a trade by San Jose in August. None
Sept. 24, 2024 Askarov (lower body) was not in attendance for Tuesday's game-day skate and will miss out versus Anaheim, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports. - Askarov came into training camp with high expectations but a lower-body injury has kept him from getting on the ice with his teammates. Set to compete for the starting job for Opening Night against St. Louis on Oct. 10, an extended absence could open the door for either Mackenzie Blackwood or Vitek Vanecek to step up. Still, unless Askarov is out long-term, he should eventually claim the No. 1 gig in San Jose. None
Sept. 19, 2024 Askarov will miss the start of training camp with a lower-body injury. - Askarov is expected to be the No. 1 goaltender with the Sharks this season, after he was dealt from Nashville on Aug. 23. The 11th overall pick by the Predators in 2020, Askarov is considered by many to be the best goaltender not playing in the NHL. He was 30-13-1 with a 2.39 GAA and a .911 save percentage for AHL Milwaukee last season. None
Aug. 23, 2024 The Sharks acquired Askarov, Nolan Burke and Colorado's 2025 third-round pick from the Predators in exchange for David Edstrom, Magnus Chrona and a conditional 2025 first-round selection Friday. - Askarov is the jewel of the trade, as he was selected 11th overall in the 2020 Draft by the Predators and has shone thus far in his professional career. Askarov was outstanding with AHL Milwaukee in 2023-24, going 30-13-1 with a 2.39 GAA and a .911 save percentage. He also saw action in a pair of NHL games last season, going 1-0-0 while giving up a pair of goals on 35 shots. Entering training camp, Askarov should be in contention to grab the top job with the Sharks, ahead of Mackenzie Blackwood and Vitek Vanecek. None
Dec. 31, 2023 Askarov was reassigned to AHL Milwaukee on Sunday. - Askarov's return to the minors could bode well for the availability of Kevin Lankinen (illness) for Tuesday's contest against Chicago. The 21-year-old Askarov earned his first NHL win Saturday, stopping 27 of 29 shots in a 3-2 shootout victory over Washington. None
Dec. 30, 2023 Askarov will defend the road goal Saturday against Washington, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports. - Askarov stopped all six shots he faced across 16:40 of playing time after Juuse Saros was pulled in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to Carolina. This will be the first NHL start of the season for Askarov, who stopped 31 shots in a 4-3 loss to Montreal on Jan. 12 during his debut with the Predators. Washington ranks 31st in the league this campaign with 2.30 goals per contest. None
Dec. 27, 2023 Askarov was called up by Nashville on Wednesday, Robby Stanley of NHL.com reports. - Askarov has a 2.45 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 15 AHL contests with Milwaukee in 2023-24. Kevin Lankinen didn't join the Predators for the start of the morning skate, and if the veteran goaltender isn't available Wednesday versus Carolina, then Askarov will presumably back up Juuse Saros. None
Nov. 22, 2023 Askarov (undisclosed) allowed five goals on 25 shots against AHL Chicago on Saturday. - Askarov has just one NHL appearance in his career, allowing four goals on 35 shots (.886 save percentage) versus Montreal in January of 2023. Even with his return from injury, the netminder is unlikely to break into the NHL any time soon, as he is likely fourth on the goalie depth chart behind Admirals teammate Troy Grosenick. None
Nov. 15, 2023 Askarov (undisclosed) was recently hurt while playing for AHL Milwaukee, general manager Barry Trotz told Nick Kieser of Nashville Hockey Now on Wednesday. - Askarov is one of the top goalie prospects in the minors. He's lived up to the hype so far with the Admirals, posting a 1.60 GAA and a .935 save percentage over five games. Without more details, it's unclear when Askarov may be available again. None
Jan. 13, 2023 Askarov stopped 31 shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens. - Making his debut for the Predators, the 11th overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft showed some nerves in the first period, but he settled down and the Habs needed power plays to score their final two goals of the night. Askarov will likely head back to AHL Milwaukee, where the 20-year-old goaltending prospect sports a 2.66 GAA and .905 save percentage through 22 games, when Kevin Lankinen (illness) is feeling 100 percent. None
Jan. 11, 2023 Askarov was recalled from AHL Milwaukee on Wednesday. - Askarov is up as insurance in goal for the Predators -- Juuse Saros will start versus the Maple Leafs, but Kevin Lankinen (undisclosed) is considered a game-time decision. Given the relatively minor nature of Lankinen's injury, Askarov shouldn't be expected to play during this stint with the big club. None

The 23-year-old netminder has a 10-6-1 record, 2.96 GAA and .908 save percentage in 17 appearances.

It's the second time in four outings that Askarov has received an early hook. Brandon Duhaime's shorthanded tally was the final goal Askarov gave up in Wednesday's outing.
