The Vegas Golden Knights will be without goalkeepers Adin Hill and Logan Thompson in the NHL night game on the Tampa Bay Lightning ice. Both are plagued by injuries, the Czech Jiří Patera will probably appear in goal.
The defending Stanley Cup champions will also call up Isaiah Saville from the AHL. “We have some untested goalkeepers there so we have to play well in front of them. We take it as every team goes through different things throughout the year that test them.” Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said.
Patera started in two matches of the pro league this year with a balance of 2.99 goals per game. Saville has not yet played in the NHL. “In fact, we’re probably the only team with undefeated goalkeepers right now. That’s a positive, isn’t it?” added Cassidy according to the AP agency.
