Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Expected starter for Sunday
Rotowire
Hill is expected to start on the road against Anaheim on Sunday, per SinBin.vegas.
Akira Schmid will play between the pipes at home against Seattle on Saturday. Head coach Bruce Cassidy wants to maintain a rotation between the two goaltenders until the Olympic break. That could give Schmid the start at home against Vancouver on Wednesday, while Hill might be in line to play at home against the Kings on Thursday. The 29-year-old Hill has a 3-2-3 record, 3.56 GAA and .855 save percentage in 10 appearances in 2025-26. Anaheim won seven straight games from Jan. 13 to Jan. 25, but the Ducks have dropped their past two while being outscored 9-2 over those losses.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Another poor outing
Rotowire
Hill stopped 23 of 27 shots in Thursday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Stars.
Hill is now 2-2-1 over five games since he returned from a lower-body injury. He's allowed 21 goals in that span, with the Stars' top six rallying for three goals during the second period to turn this performance upside down for the netminder. He's now at a 3-2-3 record with a 3.56 GAA and an .855 save percentage over 10 appearances. The Golden Knights' defense tends to limit shots against, so Hill's save percentage is likely to remain quite low as long as he's regularly leaking three or more goals. He won't have to wait long for his next start -- the Golden Knights host the Kraken on Saturday before visiting the Ducks on Sunday for a weekend back-to-back set, which will likely see Hill and Akira Schmid split the starts.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Leaves ice first
Rotowire
Hill was the first goalie to exit the ice ahead of Thursday's home clash with Dallas, SinBin.vegas reports, indicating he'll be in goal.
Hill has produced middling results since returning from a long-term injury, going 2-2-0 with a 4.26 GAA, including giving up seven goals on 32 shots in his most recent outing. Despite the rink rust that he needs to shake off, Hill figures to continue seeing the bulk of the workload, especially with Carter Hart (lower body) on injured reserve.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Beaten seven times Sunday
Rotowire
Hill stopped 24 of 31 shots in Sunday's 7-1 loss to the Senators.
Making just his fourth start since returning from a lower-body injury that caused him to miss 38 consecutive games between Oct. 25 and Jan. 14, Hill posted an underwhelming effort while allowing a season-worst seven goals. The sample is small, as Hill has made just nine appearances (eight starts) this season, but this is the third time in which he's allowed five or more goals. The 29-year-old owns a 3.53 GAA and an .855 save percentage this season. This was the first time Hill made consecutive starts since Oct. 18 and Oct. 20.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: In goal Sunday
Rotowire
Hill will defend the road net against Ottawa on Sunday.
Hill will get a second straight start after he made 18 saves in Friday's 6-3 win over Toronto. He has surrendered 20 goals on 155 shots en route to a 3-1-2 record through eight appearances this season. Ottawa ranks 12th in the league this campaign with 3.22 goals per game.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Cruises to win in Toronto
Rotowire
Hill made 18 saves in Friday's 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs.
The Golden Knights never trailed in the game, with all three of the goals Hill allowed coming in the second period. The 29-year-old netminder has won two of three starts since returning Jan. 15 from a lower-body injury that cost him nearly three months of action. On the season, Hill's gone 3-1-2 in eight outings with a 3.01 GAA and an .871 save percentage.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Guarding goal in Toronto
Rotowire
Hill is set to start on the road versus the Maple Leafs on Friday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Hill has allowed seven goals on 45 shots while going 1-1-0 in two games since he returned from a lower-body injury. The Maple Leafs have lost four of their last five games (1-2-2), scoring 14 goals in that span. Hill was between the pipes for Vegas' 6-5 overtime win over Toronto on Jan. 15.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: First regulation loss this season
Rotowire
Hill stopped 15 of 17 shots on goal in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Flyers.
Across his first seven appearances of the season, Monday's game marks Hill's first regulation loss after he allowed a goal to Philadelphia's Travis Konecny in both the first and third periods. With the loss, Hill now holds a 2-1-2 record, a 3.01 GAA and an .873 save percentage on the year. Despite struggling over the small sample size, the 29-year-old goaltender should be heavily featured down the stretch as the Golden Knights inch closer to securing a playoff spot in the Pacific Division. While the numbers aren't great, Hill should earn a decent number of wins behind Vegas' offense, making him a decent backup option in two-goalie fantasy formats. His next chance to bounce back is Thursday in Boston.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Set to start at home
Rotowire
Hill will tend the home twine against the Flyers on Monday, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Hill's first start after returning from a lower-body injury didn't go too well, as he conceded five goals on 28 shots against Toronto on Thursday, but the Golden Knights provided him with enough offensive support en route to a 6-5 overtime win. The 29-year-old has a favorable matchup Monday against a Flyers club that has lost six straight games (0-5-1).

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Rough start in overtime win
Rotowire
Hill stopped 23 of 28 shots in Thursday's 6-5 overtime win over the Maple Leafs.
Hill was playing in his first game in nearly three months after battling a lower-body injury. The 29-year-old gave up three goals within the first 10 minutes, but the Maple Leafs' offense lost its touch when William Nylander (lower body) exited the contest. The Golden Knights were able to battle back, giving Hill a win in his return. He's now 2-0-2 on the season, but he's allowed 15 goals on 117 shots (.872 save percentage). It may take a few games for Hill to fully shake off the rust, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him share the crease with Akira Schmid. Vegas hosts Nashville on Saturday.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Expected to face Toronto
Rotowire
Hill is set to start at home against Toronto on Thursday, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Hill, who had been dealing with a lower-body injury, was activated off injured reserve Thursday and will be playing in his first game since Oct. 20. He has a 1-0-2 record, 2.73 GAA and .888 save percentage in five appearances this season. Hill's getting a difficult adversary right away. Toronto ranks sixth in goals per game with 3.33, and the Maple Leafs are 8-1-2 over their past 11 games.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Activated from injured reserve
Rotowire
Hill (lower body) was activated from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's home game against the Maple Leafs, SinBin Vegas reports.
Hill had been sidelined since Oct. 20 due to a lower-body injury, but he made progress in his recovery recently and has been cleared to return to game action. The Golden Knights haven't yet named their starting netminder for Thursday's matchup, but it seems likely that Hill will tend the twine after being activated. Over five appearances this season, Hill has gone 1-0-2 with a 2.73 GAA and .888 save percentage.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Getting close to return
Rotowire
Hill (lower body) won't play in Wednesday's road matchup against the Kings, but he is nearing a return to the lineup, per SinBin Vegas on Tuesday.
Hill has been out since Oct. 20 against Columbus and could be an option for Thursday's home contest against Toronto. He has a 1-0-2 record while stopping 79 of the 89 shots he has faced in five appearances this season. With Carter Hart (lower body) week-to-week, Hill could seize control of Vegas' No. 1 goalie role once he receives the green light to play.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Remains week-to-week
Rotowire
Hill (lower body) is still considered week-to-week, according to head coach Bruce Cassidy on Tuesday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Hill was labeled week-to-week back in late October, and it seems that status hasn't changed over a two-month span. At this point, fantasy managers probably shouldn't expect the 29-year-old netminder to return before mid-January. Even once cleared to play, Hill's status as the No. 1 backstop in Vegas may be in question now that Carter Hart has been added to the squad.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Placed on injured reserve
Rotowire
Hill (lower body) was put on injured reserve Saturday, JR Pothier and Ken Boehlke of SinBin.vegas reports.
Hill has been out of action since Oct. 20 after he was injured early in a 4-1 win over Carolina. Hill could return at any time. He is 1-0-2 with a 2.73 GAA and an .888 save percentage across five appearances this season.
Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Considered week-to-week
Rotowire
Head coach Bruce Cassidy said Wednesday that Hill (lower body) is considered week-to-week, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Hill sustained a lower-body injury during Monday's win over the Hurricanes, and he won't travel with the Golden Knights on the team's upcoming three-game road trip. Akira Schmid will likely serve as the team's primary netminder in Hill's absence, while Carl Lindbom will be the backup after being recalled from AHL Henderson on Wednesday.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Injured in Monday's game
Rotowire
Hill sustained a lower-body injury in Monday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes, and there was no update on his status after the game, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Hill was replaced by Akira Schmid between the pipes after the former landed awkwardly on his left leg and needed to be helped off the ice midway through the first period, per Steve Carp of The Sporting Tribune. If Hill is forced to miss any time, Carl Lindbom will likely be elevated from AHL Henderson, as Carter Hart (suspension), who signed a professional tryout contract with Vegas on Thursday, isn't eligible to play for the team until Dec. 1. The Golden Knights aren't back in action until Saturday, when they begin a three-game road trip against the Panthers, so an update on Hill's status may not be known in the immediate future.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Set to face Hurricanes
Rotowire
Hill will patrol the home crease against Carolina on Monday, per SinBin Vegas.
Hill is coming off a 26-save performance in Saturday's 6-1 win over Calgary. He has a 1-0-2 record this season while stopping 75 of the 85 shots he has faced. Carolina has won five straight games to begin the 2025-26 campaign, and the team ranks first in the league with 4.60 goals per game.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Pours cold water on Flames
Rotowire
Hill stopped 26 of 27 shots in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Flames.
The Golden Knights' offense was humming, and Hill never let the Flames get too close after allowing a power-play goal to Jonathan Huberdeau in the first period. This was Hill's first win of the year -- he was injured in Tuesday's contest in Calgary, but Vegas was behind when he left that game. Hill is 1-0-2 with 10 goals allowed on 85 shots, so he still has some work to do to get his numbers on track. A tough test is ahead, as the Golden Knights host the undefeated Hurricanes on Monday.
