Lehner led the Golden Knights onto the ice for warmups.
After sitting as Marc-Andre Fleury’s backup on Saturday, the Golden Knights will go back to Lehner tonight vs. the Coyotes. Lehner stopped 20 of 22 shots in a winning effort vs. Anaheim in the season opener. On Monday he takes on a Coyotes team that has started the season at 1-0-1 while scoring eight goals in their first two games.
Goalie Start
Lehner led the Golden Knights onto the ice for warmups.
Following a late-season trade to the Golden Knights, Lehner went 3-0-0 with a 1.67 GAA and .940 SV%. He didn't miss a beat in the NHL's return to play, taking over as Vegas' No.1 and going 9-7 with a 1.99 GAA and .917 SV%. Entering 2021 he's clearly the lead dog in Vegas but it remains to be seen just how large of a start share he's going to command.
Eichel missed the first day of training game with an upper-body injury.
Eichel suffered an upper-body injury while training and was held off of the ice for the first day of training camp. The Sabres consider Eichel as day-to-day, so it doesn't sound like he will miss any games. In practice, Casey Mittelstadt skated on the top line as a placeholder for Eichel, cantering a line with Taylor Hall and Victor Olofsson on his wings.
The Golden Knights have signed Keegan Kolesar to a two-year contract with a $725K AAV cap-hit.
Nolan Patrick accepted his qualifying offer, signing a one-year deal worth $874K.
Lehner will undergo shoulder surgery but is expected to be ready for training camp.
The Golden Knights have signed Alex Pietrangelo to a seven-year deal worth $61.6 million contract ($8.8M AAV).
The Avalanche have acquired Brandon Saad and Dennis Gilbert from the Blackhawks for Nikita Zadorov and Anton Lindholm.
The Flyers have signed Robert Hagg to a two-year, $3.2 million ($1.6M AAV) contract extension.
Hagg appeared in 49 games with the Flyers in 2020, scoring three goals with 10 assists (13 points). The 25-year-old led the Flyers in hits (136) and was tied for fourth in blocked shots (79). Hagg will likely be the Flyers No.6 defenseman in 2021.
The Coyotes have signed Adin Hill to a one-year, one-way contract extension worth $800K.
As of now, Hill is the Coyotes No.3 netminder but there's a chance that Antti Raanta is moved in the offseason. In 2020, Hill was 2-4-3 with a 2.62 GAA and .918 SV% in the NHL and 15-5-0 with a 2.40 GAA and .918 SV% at the AHL-level.
Stone is on the ice for warmups; expected to play in Game 5 vs. Dallas.

Lehner led the Golden Knights onto the ice for warmups.
Stone (foot) is questionable to play Game 5 vs. the Stars.
Stone was labouring at the end of Game 4 after blocked a Joe Pavelski shot but was able to finish the game. On Sunday, head coach Pete DeBoer did not have an update on the winger, so consider him a game-time decision for Game 5. Stone has struggled offensively as of late, posting just one goal and one assist in his last six games.
Goalie Start
Lehner led the Golden Knights onto the ice for warmups.
The Golden Knights and Robin Lehner have agreed on a five-year, $25 million ($5.0M AAV) contract extension, to be signed after the playoffs.
According to David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period, the Golden Knights and Lehner agreed to this extension before the NHL's Return to Play and it will become official following their playoff run. This sheds a little light on why the Golden Knights have been riding Lehner throughout the postseason and have been reluctant to go to Marc-Andre Fleury at times. This could also spell the end of Fleury's time in Vegas. Since being acquired from Chicago, Lehner has gone 12-5-0 with a .924 SV% in 17 games with Vegas.

Lehner led the Golden Knights onto the ice for warmups for Game 3.
