Vegas Golden Knights News

Lauzon was suspended for two games but goes back to the AHL with Brandon Carlo back from a personal matter. The 22-year-old has 13 points (1G / 12A) in 45 AHL games this season.

Hart has missed the last nine games with an abdominal injury but will start Monday vs. the Panthers. Tonight he returns to the crease in Wells Fargo Center, where he is 13-2-2 with a 1.69 GAA and .940 SV% this season. Tonight he'll face a Panthers team that is on a three-game losing streak and 13-9-4 on the road this season.

Lauzon hit Stepan up high on Saturday and Stepan was hurt briefly but returned to the game. With Lauzon out, Brandon Carlo (personal) rejoined the team on Sunday played in Detroit.

Hagg was a healthy scratch on Thursday but will replace Shayne Gostisbehere (undisclosed) in the lineup in Washington. Hagg has picked up one goal with eight assists (nine points) in 34 games this season.

Antti Raanta was scheduled to start this afternoon but was a late-scratch, so Hill will start in Boston. In his last start, Hill gave up three goals on 37 shots in the Coyotes loss to the Kings. Overall, he is 1-2-0 with a 1.88 GAA and .937 SV% on the road this season.

Hagg will become the Flyers seventh defenseman with Shayne Gostisbehere returning from a knee injury on Thursday. That spot used to belong to Philippe Myers but he has leaped over Hagg on the depth chart with some strong play as of late.

Hertl was forced to leave Wednesday's game after only a few shifts after falling awkwardly in a collision with Chris Tanev. Hertl tore both his MCL and ACL and will miss the rest of the season. An already difficult season for San Jose just got a whole lot worse. They'll now be without both of their top-2 centres for an extended period of time.

Hart has been sidelined by a right abdominal strain since January 13th and will miss at least a minimum of seven more days. The Flyers said he feels "significantly better" after the break but still isn't quite ready.

Lauzon played in the final game before the Bruins' bye-week, scoring the second goal of his NHL career vs. Vegas. He went to the AHL over the break and now has 13 points (1G / 12A) in 45 games with Providence.

Hill was sent to Tucson during the Coyotes' bye week but returns to the Coyotes with Darcy Kuemper still out. Hill has gone 2-2-1 with a 2.40 GAA and .920 SV% in nine games with Arizona this season.

As suspected, Lauzon was called up to play on Tuesday. He will replace John Moore and comes in with one goal in 17 career NHL games.

Head coach Bruce Cassidy was frustrated with his blueline on Sunday, so it seems likely that Lauzon will draw into the lineup on Tuesday. Lauzon figures to replace Matt Grzelcyk and comes up with 13 points (1G / 12A) in 43 AHL games.

Karlsson has missed just two games over the last four and a half years and has never missed a game in a Vegas uniform until tonight. Karlsson will miss at least a couple of weeks and Paul Stastny is the most likely candidate to move into the top-6.

Hart left Tuesday's practice early and was evaluated after the session. On Wednesday, the Flyers announced that their No.1 netminder will miss at least two weeks with an abdominal strain. With Hart out, Brian Elliott takes over as their starter and Alex Lyon was recalled from Lehigh Valley (AHL) to serve as the No.2.

Hill gave up three goals on 34 shots in the Coyotes loss to the Penguins on Sunday. Since being thrust into duty, Hill has gone 1-1-1 with a 2.94 GAA and .908 SV% in three starts and two relief appearances. On Tuesday he will face a Sharks team that is 4-1-1 while scoring 2.83 goals per game in their first six games of the calendar year.

Hart left the practice session and will be checked out for a potential lower-body issue. Brian Elliott was already scheduled to start Wednesday, so they may need to call-up a backup, but expect an update on Wednesday.

Hart stopped 27 of 28 shots in the Flyers 1-0 shutout loss to the Lightning on Saturday. Hart continues to play exceptionally well on home-ice, entering Monday at 12-2-2 with a 1.49 GAA, .947 SV% and one shutout at the Wells Fargo Center. He stopped 26 of 28 shots in a 3-2 shootout win in his first start vs. the Bruins, who are 4-3-1 while averaging 3.00 goals per game in their last eight road games.
