Hill will start in Dallas on Wednesday.

The Golden Knights have made a habit of rotating their two star goalies this season, but it will be Hill getting a second consecutive start in Dallas on Wednesday. Hill has enjoyed a phenomenal start to the 2023-24 season, registering a .929 SV% and a 2.07 GAA to go along with his 8-2-1 record. Hill was stellar against the Penguins in a losing effort on Sunday, stopping 30 of the 32 shots he faced in the 3-0 defeat. He draws a difficult assignment tonight with the Golden Knights being rare underdogs at +110 in Dallas.

Carter Hart will start Wednesday vs. the Islanders.

Hart has been stellar, starting two consecutive games (2-0-0) since a five-game absence due to injury, saving 59 of 63 shots (.937), and will return to the crease on Wednesday against the New York Islanders. Hart has been solid all season, and his .919 SV% and 2.40 GAA currently have him pacing for the best season of his six-year career. The Flyers are +130 road underdogs but are facing an Islanders team that ranks in the bottom half of the league defensively (3.24 GA / GP) after being a top-five team for most of the last decade.

Hill will start Thursday's game in Montreal.

Hill is coming off a 20-save shutout, his second of the season, in a 5-0 victory over the San Jose Sharks on November 10th. The Western Conference-leading Golden Knights have faltered a little, losing three of their last four, but will look to get back into the win column on Thursday as -192 road favourites against a Montreal Canadiens team that has been outscored 7-3 in their last two contests (0-2-0). The 27-year-old Hill has been nothing short of spectacular this season, posting a remarkable 1.75 GAA and .939 SV% through nine contests (7-1-1).

Carter Hart will start Wednesday in Carolina.

Hart will start for the Flyers on Wednesday, marking his first game action since November 1st, when he allowed two goals on five shots. Hart was originally out of the lineup with a mid-boy injury and, more recently, dealing with an illness. The Flyers managed to hold down the fort in Hart's absence, posting a 3-2-0 record, but will be thrilled to have their workhorse goaltender back in the mix. The 25-year-old Hart is in the midst of his best season in four years, boasting a 2.52 GAA and .913 SV% through eight games (4-3-0). Hart will be thrown to the lions in his return to action as the Flyers are sizeable +218 road underdogs against a Carolina Hurricanes team coming off a dominant 4-0 shutout victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Schmid will start in Winnipeg on Tuesday.

Schmid played well coming in relief of Vitek Vanecek on Friday, saving 20 of 21 shots (.952 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the Washington Capitals and will receive only his second start since October 26th. The Devils expected to operate with an even timeshare in their crease, but early struggles for Schmid quickly put that idea to rest. In five games (1-2-1), Schmid has a 3.09 GAA and .898 SV%. Despite his struggles, Vanecek has been far from perfect this season, and a strong performance from Schmid against the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday could go a long way in securing him more game-action.

Raphael Lavoie has been loaned to Springfield (AHL).

Lavoie has yet to pick up a point through five games with Edmonton but had three SOG and a -1 plus/minus and has been loaned to Springfield (AHL) on Tuesday. The 23-year-old winger returns to Springfield, where he was on a heater prior to his promotion with four goals, three assists, 17 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus.

Carter Hart (illness) was back at practice and expected to play Wednesday vs. Carolina.

After missing five games due to an injury and an illness, Hart was a full participant at practice on Tuesday and is expected to be the Flyers' starter on Wednesday. The Flyers went 3-2-0 in his absence behind the goaltending tandem Samuel Ersson and Cal Petersen. Hart has a 2.52 GAA and .913 SV% through eight games this season (4-3-0) and should be a workhorse for the Flyers the rest of the season as long as he can stay healthy.

Zach Whitecloud (upper body) will make his season debut Friday vs. San Jose.

Whitecloud has battled an upper-body injury that has prevented him from playing this season but will finally make his debut on Friday against the San Jose Sharks. Last season, Whitecloud played 59 games with the Golden Knights, tallying 12 points (5G / 7A) and a +10 plus/minus rating.

Adin Hill will start Friday vs. San Jose.

Hill will get his second consecutive start on Friday as he looks to rebound from his first regulation loss of the season. Hill has performed admirably throughout the season, boasting an impressive 1.97 GAA and .934 SV% in eight games (6-1-1). He allowed three goals on 32 shots (.906 SV%) on Wednesday, a 4-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings, but will have the opportunity to make up for it against the lowest-scoring team in the NHL, the San Jose Sharks (1.31 GF / GP). The last-place Sharks have won two games in a row, but the Golden Knights are still astronomic -501 home favourites on Friday night.

Hill will start against the Kings on Wednesday.

Hill is the starter for the Golden Knights as they continue their rotation between him and Logan Thompson. Hill put together a tremendous effort in his most recent outing, saving all 41 shots he faced for his first shutout of the season, a 7-0 blowout victory over the Colorado Avalanche. Sunday, with Thompson between the pipes, the Golden Knights suffered their first regulation loss of the season, but Hill will look to continue his undefeated 6-0-1 record. The Golden Knights are -121 home favourites against a Los Angeles Kings team that has collected points in six straight (5-0-1).
