Goalie Matchup Against Nashville

Seattle and Nashville both have been in the bottom half of the league in terms of goals scored per game, and look to change that with Thursday's matchup.

If the game leans toward being a low scoring one, each team will look to their goaltenders to stand tall to secure a win.

Nashville's goaltender will be Jusse Saros, widely regarded as one of the best talents between the pipes that the NHL has to offer.

Saros has started eight of Nashville's nine games and has a 4-4 record during those games, looking to improve to a winning record.


In those eight games, Saros has a .915 save percentage.

Starting in his second straight game for Seattle will be Philipp Grubauer, who is coming off his first win of the season against Tampa Bay.

Grubauer made some timely saves against the potent Lightning offense, with some help from the goalposts.

After Monday's game, Grubauer has improved his save percentage to a .901 on the year, and looks to shut down a Nashville offense that has not scored a ton of goals.
