2016-07-01 analysis Gustavsson was a passable backup netminder for the Bruins last season, compiling an 11-9-1 record with a 2.72 GAA and .908 save percentage over 24 appearances. The 31-year-old goaltender will have a similar role with the Oilers in 2016-17, appearing in 20 to 25 games while playing second fiddle to starting netminder Cam Talbot.
2016-07-01 update Gustavsson signed a one-year, $800,000 contract with the Oilers on Friday, Sportsnet's Luke Fox reports.
2016-06-24 analysis While the Bruins could add veteran goaltending depth down the road, the team has an internal replacement candidate in Malcolm Subban, who will now have a chance to claim the No. 2 spot behind starter Tuukka Rask.

2016-06-24 update The Bruins won't attempt to re-sign Gustavsson in free agency, CSN New England reports.
2016-04-10 analysis Gustavsson is a surprise start on Saturday with the Bruins also recalling Jeremy Smith on emergency basis. The 31-year-old makes just his fifth appearance since the beginning of March. In those four previous outings, the netminder has not performed well, as he's posted a 1-3-0 record with a 2.46 GAA. All four goals came in the first half of a very frenetic second period -- Gustavsson wasn't exactly sharp, but neither were his teammates. The Monster found out he was going into the blue paint just 90 minutes before game time when Tuukka Rask took ill. Gustavsson may have just played his final game in black and gold, as he becomes a free agent this offseason. His future is restricted to back-up d

2016-04-03 update Gustavsson stopped 10 of 12 shots in Sunday's 6-4 loss to Chicago after replacing Tuukka Rask 22 minutes into the contest.
2016-03-24 analysis Gustavsson ended up playing the game's final 40 minutes after Rask was pulled during the first intermission. It seems the Bruins rushed Rask back too early, making it likely that Gustavsson will be right back in net for Thursday's tilt with the Panthers.
2016-03-24 update Gustavsson gave up two goals on 15 shots after being called upon to replace Tuukka Rask (illness) at the start of the second period Wednesday against the Rangers.
2016-03-19 analysis The Bruins were shutout by Frederik Andersen, but Gustavsson didn't really do much to help out his team's cause. The backup drops to 11-6-1 on the season with a .913 save percentage. He's been up-and-down in his starts this year and doesn't see much action behind workhorse starter Tuukka Rask. The 31-year-old is a decent backup on a strong Bruins squad, but don't expect anything spectacular.
2016-03-19 update Gustavsson gave up four goals on 26 shots in Friday's loss to Boston.
2016-03-18 analysis The expected netminder after leaving the ice first during the morning skate, Gustavsson will look to improve on his 11-5-1 record Friday in Anaheim. He's catching the Ducks at a good time, as they've lost three of their last four, and the 31-year-old netminder has been better on the road (1.93 GAA, .934 save percentage) than at home this season. He could be an option in daily lineups despite what

2016-02-22 analysis Per the Boston Herald, Gustavsson is expected to square off against Joonas Korpisalo on Monday, which would mark Gustavsson's first start since manning the B's net in a 4-2 win over the Wild on Feb. 13, in which he made 31 saves.

2016-02-22 update Gustavsson is in line to start Monday's game against Columbus.
2016-02-14 analysis Starter Tuukka Rask allowed five goals just past the halfway point of the contest, so Gustavsson was tasked with closing out the game. The Bruins actually rallied back to tie the score before falling back behind, so the 31-year-old was on the hook for the loss. It drops his record to 10-4-1, but Gustavsson has been mostly solid in backup duty.
2016-02-14 update Gustavsson stopped 10 of 11 shots after entering in the second period of Sunday's loss to the Red Wings.
2016-02-13 analysis Gustavsson struggled in his last appearance, surrendering four goals on 25 shots in relief of Tuukka Rask in Tuesday's 9-2 loss to the Kings. The 31-year-old netminder has been decent in limited action this season, compiling a 9-3-1 record with a 2.58 GAA and .911 save percentage in 16 appearances. He'll look to pick up his 10th win of the season Saturday in a favorable matchup with a slumping M The low-scoring Wild were just the tonic for Gustavsson, who struggled in his last appearance and has suffered with an erratic heart rate. The win was his 10th and he remains best used as a handcuff for Tuukka Rask.
2016-02-13 update Gustavsson will be in the crease in Saturday's game against the Wild. Gustavsson made 31 saves in a 4-2 win over the Wild on Saturday.

However, a starter for that contest has yet to be named. His playing status should become clear once pre-game warmups begin, though it's worth noting that the Bruins have reassigned Malcom Subban to AHL Providence, further suggesting that Gus should be available Thursday.

Gustavsson was sharp in his last start, stopping 31 of 33 shots en route to a 3-2 win over the Blue Jackets on Saturday.

2016-01-24 analysis The big Swede has won his last three straight starts and four of his last five. Gustavsson's 9-3-1 record doesn't leap out, but he sure is delivering when he's in the blue paint. He's a great handcuff for Tuukka Rask and stands alone in daily formats. You just won't get a lot of starts. Gustavsson was fantastic in his last outing, stopping 33 of 34 shots en route to a 4-1 win over the Sabres on Jan. 15. He'll look to earn his ninth win of the season Saturday in a favorable matchup with a Columbus club that has lost six of its last eight games.

2016-01-16 analysis With the Bruins set to play a back-to-back set starting Friday, it's not a big surprise that the netminders will split the duties. Gustavsson played well in his last start Jan. 8 against the Devils, and will look to build off of that Friday against a Sabres squad that's worst in the league in scoring at home this season, averaging just 1.96 goals per game. Gustavsson, who backstopped the Bruins' last win -- a 4-1 decision over New Jersey on Jan. 8 -- is thus on track to square off against Buffalo's Robin Lehner on Friday, while we'd expect Tuukka Rask to draw the start in net for Boston on Saturday against the Maple Leafs.

2016-01-16 analysis Gustavsson was fantastic in what was just his 13th appearance of the season and second since Dec. 27. He's a distant backup to starter Tuukka Rask, but Rask has struggled lately with five straight losses so Friday's gem could conceivably open the door for Gustavsson to get a couple more starting nods in the coming games. Boston plays again Saturday against Toronto, so Rask will probably get the call given the back-to-back scenario, but it's worth keeping tabs on the Bruins' crease going forward.
