Samsonov stopped 14 of 19 shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Kings.
Samsonov was making his first start since the break, and it's safe to say he didn't look at his best after posting his worst save percentage of the season for a single game. The 28-year-old Russian has made three appearances this month, and the results have been underwhelming, as he's gone 1-2-0 with a 3.47 GAA and an .825 save percentage. In fact, Samsonov didn't post a save percentage above .880 in any of those contests. The Golden Knights have been alternating starts between the pipes, so Adin Hill is likely to defend Vegas' crease against the Blackhawks on Thursday.
