Carter Hart's return from a lower-body injury coincided with the hiring of new Head Coach John Tortorella, who was his former bench boss with the Flyers. Tortorella has shown allegiance to his former goalie, Hart, who has started all three games during his tenure with the Golden Knights (3-0-0). That said, Hill will get his first start in over a week and hopes to prove himself to Tortorella. Hill saved 22 of 24 shots (.917 SV%) in his previous game, a 4-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks. In his last 13 games (5-6-2), Hill has a 2.79 GAA and .872 SV%. The Golden Knights enter Thursday's contest as -179 road favourites against a free-falling Seattle Kraken team on a six-game losing streak (0-5-1).
