Knight was the first goalie off the ice at the Panthers morning skate; expected to start vs. the Islanders.

Knight stopped all six shots that he faced after replacing Sergei Bobrovsky in the Panthers' loss to the Wild on Tuesday. Thought three appearances (two starts) this season, Knight has a 3.04 GAA and .900 SV%. On Saturday he'll face the Islanders and the Panthers enter play as -137 road favourites.

Knight will start on Tuesday in Columbus.

Knight struggled in his first outing this season, allowing four goals on 26 shots (.846 SV%) in a 5-3 loss to the Buffalo Sabres last week, but will return to the crease for the Panthers for a second time in their first five games. With Sergei Bobrovsky in his age 36 season, coming off consecutive long playoff runs, this could be an indication Knight's workload going forward this season. The Panthers, still without Aleksander Barkov and Matthew Tkachuk, enter action as -153 road favourites on the road against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
