Adin Hill will tend the twine on Thursday night as he attempts to snap a season-worst three-game losing skid. Uncharacteristically, Hill has allowed three or more goals in four straight games, the first time this season, showcasing an ugly .884 SV%.

Eichel has been out for a week since leaving the Golden Knights' game on January 11th with a knee injury and appears to be on cue to return from surgery at the late end of his four-to-six-week prognosis. He currently has 19 goals, 25 assists, 173 SOG, 10 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 42 games before his injury and will be a welcomed addition to a Golden Knights team that just lost Mark Stone indefinitely to an upper-body injury.

Theodore was pacing for the most productive season of his career before his injury, with 18 points (4G / 14A) in 20 games and will likely draw back onto the top powerplay unit upon his return.

Olofsson has not played the last two games and will miss at least two more. His next opportunity to return to the lineup will be at home on Sunday against the Carolina Hurricanes. Olofsson has zero points in his last eight games.
