Vegas Golden Knights News

Hertl was forced to leave Thursday's game in Anaheim with a knee injury but it won't cost him any games. This is obviously huge news for the Sharks because Hertl comes in on a five-game goal-scoring streak and has seven goals in his last seven games.

The Capitals will likely need to recall a forward to replace Dowd in the lineup on Friday night. Dowd suffered a deep cut on his hand in Philadelphia and will likely need a couple of days to let that heal before re-entering the Washington lineup.

Hart stopped 35 of 36 shots in the Flyers shootout loss to the Capitals on Wednesday. Hart had a tough finish to October but has been brilliant in November, going 4-0-1 with a 1.72 GAA and .939 SV%. The Senators have surprised a lot of people lately and have won three in a row on home-ice but Hart is still one of the best options on the slate.

Hart allowed two goals on 28 shots in the Flyers win in Boston on Sunday. Hart had an extremely tough end to October but has been red-hot to start November, going 4-0-0 with a 1.92 GAA and .929 SV% in his last four starts. Most of his struggles have come on the road, so he's a decent option on home-ice, where he is 4-1-0 with a 1.81 GAA, .930 SV% and one shutout.

Marner was forced to leave Saturday's game vs. the Flyers with an ankle injury that he suffered after getting tangled up and falling awkwardly on a face-off. Marner did not travel to Chicago for Sunday's game and could potentially be out for an extended period of time. Marner will undergo an MRI and the Maple Leafs should release a timetable early next week.

Dowd has been out of the lineup for the last three games but will replace Carl Hagelin vs. the Golden Knights. Dowd will centre the fourth line and re-enters the lineup with two goals and one assist in 11 games this season.

Dowd has missed the last two games but may return to the lineup in Florida. Dowd brings almost no offence to the table, scoring just two goals with one assist (three points) in 11 games this season.

Hart allowed one goal on 34 shots in the Flyers win over the Hurricanes on Tuesday. Hart has won two straight while stopping 56 of the 60 shots (.933 SV%) that he has faced. The win also improved Hart to 3-1-0 with a. 1.76 GAA, .933 SV% and one shutout on home ice. Tonight they host a Montreal team that is 4-2-2 while averaging 3.88 goals per game on the road this year.

Hart allowed three goals on 26 shots in the Flyers win in New Jersey last Friday. Brian Elliott started Saturday's shootout loss, so they'll come back to Hart tonight vs. the Hurricanes. He is 2-1-0 with a 2.02 GAA, .915 SV% and one shutout on home-ice this season, while Carolina comes in at 3-2-1 with 3.00 goals for per game on the road.

Dowd is dealing with a lower-body injury that he suffered in Toronto on Tuesday. With Dowd out, Chandler Stephenson will play vs. Buffalo and Liam O'Brien was called up from Hershey (AHL) to serve as an extra forward.

Hart allowed one goal on nine shots after replacing Brian Elliott in the Flyers' 7-1 loss in Pittsburgh on Tuesday. Hart has had a really tough time as of late, giving up a combined 13 goals on just 52 shots (.750 SV%) in his last four appearances. He'll try to get back on track tonight when he faces a Devils team that is 2-2-1 while averaging 3.80 goals per game in their last five games.

Dowd was forced to leave Tuesday's game in Toronto with a lower-body injury and is officially listed as day-to-day. Dowd is unlikely to play Friday vs. the Sabres, so look for Chandler Stephenson to draw back into the lineup.

Hagg was a healthy scratch on Sunday but will replace Samuel Morin on Tuesday. Hagg has very little offensive ability, posting just one assist and seven shots in nine games this season.

Hart was pulled after allowing four goals on 14 shots in the Flyers loss in Edmonton on Wednesday. It was Hart’s first bad outing of the season and moved him to 2-1-1 with a 2.46 GAA and .904 SV% in four starts. He is a great option on Saturday, facing a Stars team that ranks last in the NHL in goal-scoring (1.89 GF/gm) through their first nine games.

Hart gave up two goals on 24 shots in the Flyers loss in Vancouver last Saturday. Hart has had a tremendous start to the season, going 2-0-1 with a 1.62 GAA, .938 SV% and one shutout. Hart has quickly answered any of the doubt surrounding him entering the season and he has firmly entered the No.1 fantasy goalie tier. Tonight he takes on an Oilers team that have started 5-1-0 while averaging 3.67 GF/gm (t-8th).

Hart has looked outstanding in the Flyers' previous two games, winning both contests with a .946 SV% and a 1.50 GAA to show for it. The 21-year-old phenom looks set to enjoy a breakout campaign in 2019-20. He's a must start in fantasy tonight against the Canucks.
