Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Faces light workload in win
Rotowire
Hill stopped 14 of 17 shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Predators.
The Predators overcame a 3-1 deficit early in the third period, but the Golden Knights took the win with two goals over the last two minutes. Hill certainly wasn't at his best, but he did enough to earn his third straight win and his seventh victory in nine outings. He's now gone 12 games without allowing more than three goals -- he won't be dominant in every start, but he's rarely completely overwhelmed. Hill is at 32-13-5 with a 2.47 GAA and a .906 save percentage over 50 appearances. The Golden Knights' last two regular-season games are a back-to-back set on the road, with stops in Calgary on Tuesday and in Vancouver on Wednesday.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Steady in win
Rotowire
Hill stopped 24 of 25 shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Kraken.
Hill has won seven of his last nine outings, and this was the fourth time in that stretch he's allowed just one goal. It was a fluky one that broke up his shutout bid Thursday, as Jared McCann poked home the puck amid a scramble near the net. Hill is up to 31-13-5 with a 2.46 GAA and a .908 save percentage over 49 starts this season. He has alternated starts with Akira Schmid lately -- if that workload pattern continues, Schmid would play Saturday versus the Predators, and Hill would be in line to start Tuesday against the Flames, though it's unclear if Ilya Samsonov (upper body) will be ready to return prior to either of those games.

Rotowire
Hill stopped 16 of 19 shots in two periods of Thursday's 4-0 loss to the Jets.
Hill was replaced for the final frame, with Akira Schmid checking in to get some action in a low-pressure situation. This was Hill's second loss in a row to open April after he won his last five outings in March. The 28-year-old dipped to 29-13-5 with a 2.50 GAA and a .907 save percentage through 47 contests after this poor showing. Hill will likely start one of the next two games, as the Golden Knights visit the Flames on Saturday and the Canucks on Sunday.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Winning streak snapped
Rotowire
Hill stopped 17 of 20 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers.
Hill had won five straight outings, but the Oilers' three-goal second period did him in this time around. He's gone eight games without allowing more than three goals, providing steady play between the pipes for the playoff-bound Golden Knights. The 28-year-old dropped to 29-12-5 with a 2.47 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 46 appearances. Ilya Samsonov (upper body) is bothered by an injury, so Hill could see a heavy workload for a while. The Golden Knights' next game is at home Thursday versus the Jets.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Fifth straight win
Rotowire
Hill made 23 saves Saturday in a 3-1 win over the Predators.
Hill made back-to-back starts after an 18-save effort against Chicago on Friday. Ilya Samsonov (undisclosed) felt something tighten on him in the warmup, so the Golden Knights pivoted to Hill. The 28-year-old Hill has won five consecutive starts and hasn't lost in regulation since March 9. Since then, Hill has gone 6-0-1 in seven starts, posting one shutout. He's one win from recording his first 30-victory season in the NHL and has a 2.46 GAA and a .908 save percentage.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Surprise starter Saturday
Rotowire
Despite Ilya Samsonov leading Vegas out for the pregame warmups, Hill is expected to start on the road against Nashville on Saturday, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
Typically, the goaltender who leads the team out for warmups gets the start, but that won't be the case in this instance. Vegas' decision to give Hill the nod is surprising because he also started Friday, turning aside 18 of 21 shots en route to a 5-3 win over Chicago, so he'll be playing in back-to-back nights. The 28-year-old has a 28-11-5 record with a 2.49 GAA and a .907 save percentage across 44 appearances this campaign. The Predators rank last in goals per game this season with 2.54.

He's up to 28-11-5 on the year with a 2.49 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 44 starts.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Luck not on his side Saturday
Rotowire
Hill made 34 saves in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to Buffalo.
Hill faced nearly twice as many shots as Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen at the other end of the ice, and the game-tying goal that forced the overtime came with just 14 seconds left in the third. Hill deserved better Saturday -- the Sabres opportunistically capitalized on a few scrambles and giveaways while his mates struggled to sustain any offensive pressure. Hill is 5-1-1 with two shutouts in his last seven starts, and he's 24-11-5 with four shutouts, a 2.54 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 40 starts this season.
