Up to date | 15 | 2 | 12 | 14 | 5 | 8 | 5 | 37.20 |

Up to date | 20 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 2 | 5 | 2 | 13.58 |

Change from last week | 2 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 | +5.32 |
Lomberg had a superb weekend. He had two goals in one game and two assists in the other. We may all have an idea of what he is at the NHL level, and maybe he’s “just” a really good AHLer, but he’s making a good case for another handful of NHL games.
Mitchell Mattson- LW, Michigan State, NCAA (Big 10)

Jon Gillies- G, Stockton Heat
GP | TOI | SV% | |
Up to date | 8 | 478.03 | 0.908 |
Change from last week | 1 | 59.00 | +0.10 |
Gillies played one game over the weekend, making 30 saves in a 4-1 win over San Diego. He’s played little enough that a good outing really impacts his save percentage.

Up to date | 1 | 58.00 | 0.902 |
Change from last week | 1 | 58.00 | +0.902 |
Kansas Cty is juggling three goalies right now, so Parsons started one game and then was placed on the reserve list to allow Kansas City to use their third goalie (Hayden Hawkey) to back up Nick Schneider.

GP | TOI | SV% | |
AHL Up to date | 1 | 60 | 0.937 |

ECHL Up to date | 13 | 780 | 0.900 |

Dustin Wolf- G, Everett Silvertips, WHL
GP | TOI | SV% | |
Up to date | 17 | 993 | 0.936 |
Change from last week | 2 | 118 | -0.003 |
Wolf’s save percentage crashed all the way down to .936. He’s still among the top goaltenders in the WHL and Canadian major junior hockey, if not the top goaltender.
Artyom Zagidulin- G, Stockton Heat
GP | TOI | SV% | |
Up to date | 9 | 510.55 | 0.884 |
Change from last week | 1 | 61.00 | +0.002 |
