Hill will start in Seattle on Tuesday.

Hill will get the call for a fourth consecutive game when the Golden Knights travel to Seattle on Tuesday. The 27-year-old netminder snapped a personal three-game losing streak his last time out, stopping 23 of the 26 shots he faced in Saturday's 5-3 victory over the Red Wings. After a dominant start to his season, Hill has struggled over the last month, posting a 2-6-0 record and an .881 SV% across his last nine appearances. Luckily for Hill, he's in a good spot to secure a second consecutive victory for the first time since February 8th with Vegas being -150 favourites over the Kraken on Tuesday.
