Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Won't return before 4 Nations break
Hogberg (upper body) will have his status assessed after the 4 Nations Face-Off, Rachel Luscher of the Islanders' official site reports Saturday.
That rules Hogberg out for at least the next five games, starting with Saturday's road matchup against Tampa Bay. The team's first game back from the break is Feb. 23 versus Dallas. Jakub Skarek is serving as the backup goaltender behind Ilya Sorokin due to the absences of Hogberg and Semyon Varlamov (lower body).

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Placed on injured reserve
Hogberg (upper body) was designated for injured reserve Monday.
Based on his retroactive placement date (Jan. 25), Hogberg can be expected to miss at least the next three games for the Islanders, though it could certainly be longer. With Semyon Varlamov (lower body) still on the shelf, the team called up Jakub Skarek to serve as the No. 2 option behind Ilya Sorokin for the time being. It's a disappointing blow for the 30-year-old Hogberg, as he has managed decent numbers in seven NHL appearances this season, going 2-2-0 with a 1.45 GAA and .947 save percentage.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Suffers upper-body injury
Hogberg sustained an upper-body injury in Saturday's game versus the Hurricanes, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Head coach Patrick Roy described the injury as something that got progressively worse in the third period. The 30-year-old stopped 24 of 26 shots in the contest but won't get a result, as the Islanders won 3-2 in overtime after Ilya Sorokin took over between the pipes. If Hogberg misses additional time, the Islanders will likely be forced to make a move unless Semyon Varlamov (lower body) is cleared to play.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Starting Saturday
Hogberg will patrol the home crease versus Carolina on Saturday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Hogberg has been sensational for the Islanders in limited action. He is only 2-2-0, but has a microscopic 1.32 GAA and an outstanding .952 save percentage over six appearances. The Hurricanes are generating 3.37 goals per game, fifth in the NHL this season.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Playing at high level in January
Hogberg made 18 saves on 19 shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over San Jose.
Hogberg conceded a weak goal to Barclay Goodrow midway through the second period, but that was all that got past the Swede on Saturday. Hogberg has allowed exactly one marker in three consecutive games, posting a 2-1-0 record, .955 save percentage and 1.01 GAA in that span. He has earned a larger share of the crease lately due to Semyon Varlamov (lower body) remaining without a timetable to return. The 30-year-old Hogberg owns a 2-2-0 record, .952 save percentage and 1.32 GAA through six appearances in 2024-25.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Between pipes for Saturday
Hogberg will tend the twine at home against the Sharks on Saturday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Hogberg has conceded just one goal in each of his last two appearances while stopping 46 shots (.958 save percentage). Given his solid numbers of late, another high-end performance out of the 30-year-old backstop Saturday could see him challenge Ilya Sorokin for more opportunities between the crease.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Out-dueled in Tuesday's loss
Hogberg turned aside 25 of 26 shots in Tuesday's 2-0 loss to the Senators, with Ottawa's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
The 30-year-old netminder made his NHL debut with Ottawa in 2018-19 and did his best to deliver a revenge game against his former organization, but Adam Gaudette tipped a point shot past Hogberg in the second period, and it was all the offense Leevi Merilainen would need in the other crease. Hogberg has started two straight games while Ilya Sorokin dealt with an illness and played well, allowing only two goals on 48 shots, but Sorokin figures to reclaim the No. 1 job as soon as he's deemed fit. Semyon Varlamov (lower body) has no timeline for his return from LTIR however, and Hogberg's recent performances might earn him more consistent work as Sorokin's backup.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Facing former team Tuesday
Hogberg will be between the home pipes Tuesday versus Ottawa, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.
Hogberg was solid in his last start, stopping 21 of 22 shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over Utah. The 30-year-old will face the team he was drafted by in 2013 -- Hogberg spent the first three years of his NHL career with the Sens. Ottawa is tied for 20th in the NHL with 2.90 goals per game.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Steady in win over Utah
Hogberg allowed one goal on 22 shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over Utah.
Hogberg can't really be faulted for the goal against, as it was a tipped-in shot off the stick of Nick Schmaltz. The 30-year-old Hogberg has allowed four goals on 80 shots over four appearances (two starts) at the NHL level this year. He started Saturday because Ilya Sorokin (illness) was unavailable, and Hogberg would likely continue to see playing time should Sorokin not be healthy in time for Tuesday's home game versus the Senators.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Facing Utah
Hogberg will be between the pipes in Utah on Saturday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Hogberg will get a rare start as Ilya Sorokin (illness) has started 14 of the Islanders' last 15 games. Hogberg is 0-1-0 this season, allowing three goals on 58 shots. Utah is 24th in the NHL, averaging 2.83 goals per game in 2024-25.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Loses in first start of season
Hogberg gave up three goals on 41 shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Penguins.
Making his first start at the NHL level since April 2021, Hogberg gave up goals in the opening seven minutes of each period and was tagged with the loss. He's made three appearances this season, though the previous two came in relief where he stopped a total of 17 shots without giving up a goal, so there's not much of a sample to see what he might bring to the table as a backup. That said, the fact that he made 38 saves is something that can't be overlooked easily. He's likely to remain the backup to Ilya Sorokin as long as Semyon Varlamov (lower body) remains on long-term injured reserve.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Defending crease Sunday
Hogberg will guard the road goal against Pittsburgh on Sunday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Hogberg will get the second half of the Islanders' back-to-back after Ilya Sorokin played in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Penguins. Hogberg's last NHL start came against Vancouver on April 28, 2021, when he was a member of the Senators. The 30-year-old netminder has a 9-17-9 record with a 3.34 GAA and an .896 save percentage in 44 NHL regular-season appearances. Pittsburgh ranks 15th in the league with 3.08 goals per game in 2024-25.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Needed in relief Tuesday
Hogberg stopped all six shots he faced after replacing Ilya Sorokin to begin the third period of Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Hurricanes.
It's the second time in seven games since his promotion at the beginning of the month that Hogberg has been called upon to spell Sorokin, and the backup goalie has turned aside all 17 shots sent his way in those appearances. The Islanders are off until Saturday when they head to Toronto, but Semyon Varlamov (lower body) isn't expected to rejoin the team until the following week. Sorokin will likely get the nod for that contest, but if coach Patrick Roy decided to give him an extended rest, Hogberg would be in line for his first start of the season.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Makes 11 saves in relief appearance
Hogberg stopped all 11 shots he faced in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Kraken.
Hogberg took over for Ilya Sorokin at the start of the third period and kept the game from getting any worse. The Kraken's fifth goal was an empty-netter scored after head coach Patrick Roy pulled Hogberg early for an extra attacker. This was Hogberg's first NHL action since he logged 14 games with the Senators in 2020-21, and he'll likely head back to AHL Bridgeport once Semyon Varlamov (lower body) is given the all-clear to play.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Recalled on emergency basis
Hogberg was recalled by the Islanders on an emergency basis Thursday.
Since Semyon Varlamov is considered day-to-day due to a lower-body injury, Hogberg will join the NHL club to serve as the backup to Ilya Sorokin during Thursday's home game against the Kraken. Hogberg could be in the mix to draw a start over the weekend if Varlamov isn't back to full health, as the Islanders have a back-to-back set with a home game against Carolina on Saturday followed by a road matchup against Ottawa on Sunday. Hogberg hasn't appeared in the NHL since the 2020-21 campaign, when he posted a 4-7-0 record, 3.74 GAA and .876 save percentage over 14 appearances with the Senators.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Sent down Monday
Hogberg was returned to AHL Bridgeport on Monday.
Hogberg's stint with the big club was brief, as Semyon Varlamov appears to have moved past his lower-body injury. Hogberg hasn't made an appearance in the NHL since the 2020-21 campaign with Ottawa.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Called up Monday
Hogberg was recalled by the Islanders on an emergency basis for Monday's practice session.
Hogberg was sent to the AHL ahead of the regular season, and he's posted a 2-4-3 record, 2.97 GAA and .908 save percentage over 10 appearances with Bridgeport to begin the year. He'll provide goaltending depth for the Islanders since Semyon Varlamov (lower body) is considered day-to-day.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: Hits waiver wire
Hogberg was waived by the Islanders on Sunday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Hogberg appeared in two preseason contests for New York -- he posted a .929 save percentage and a 2.02 GAA in 44:35 of ice time. The Swedish netminder hitting waivers could be an indication that Ilya Sorokin (back) is healthy ahead of the upcoming campaign. Hogberg's last NHL appearance was in 2020-21 with Ottawa, when he posted a 4-7-0 record, .876 save percentage and 3.74 GAA in 14 regular-season appearances.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: First off Monday
Hogberg was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports, indicating he will patrol the home crease in Monday's preseason game versus Philadelphia.
Hogberg stopped 24 of 25 shots in a 2-0 exhibition loss to the Flyers on Thursday. He could start the 2024-25 season with the Islanders if Ilya Sorokin (back) is unavailable for Opening Night on Oct. 10 against Utah. Still, the 29-year-old Hogberg will compete with Jakub Skarek and Keith Kinkaid, a camp invitee on a professional tryout, for a potential roster spot.

Islanders' Marcus Hogberg: In goal Thursday
Hogberg will start in goal on the road for a preseason game versus the Flyers on Thursday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Hogberg will get his second preseason start after allowing two goals on 17 shots versus the Devils in his first game Sunday. The 29-year-old is attempting a North America comeback after spending three years in his native Sweden. Hogberg is likely to begin the year with AHL Bridgeport, though he could win the backup job over Jakub Skarek if Ilya Sorokin (back) is not healthy for Opening Night.
