Hart will get the call between the pipes for the 11th time this season when the Golden Knights travel to Winnipeg on Tuesday.

The 27-year-old goalie had a 2.40 GAA and .917 SV% in his first five games (3-0-2), but has fallen to an ugly 4.02 GAA and .832 SV% in his last four (1-2-1).

Carter Hart has not played an NHL game since January in the 2023-24 season, but will make his return after a brief conditioning stint in the AHL. The 27-year-old Hart failed to impress with the Henderson Silver Knights, posting a subpar 3.07 GAA and .839 SV% in three games (1-2-0).

The Golden Knights enter the action against the Blackhawks as -277 home favorites.
