Golden Knights goalie Adin Hill leaves game in first period with injury

By Canadian Press on October 20, 2025.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Golden Knights starting goaltender Adin Hill left Monday’s game against Carolina with an apparent leg injury midway through the first period with the Knights up 1-0.

After making a save, Hill went down to the ice and stayed there for several minutes.

After a brief discussion on the ice with the team trainer, Zach Whitecloud and William Karlsson escorted Hill to the bench.

Hill maneuvered his way to the tunnel but struggled to put weight on his left leg.

Hill left the Golden Knights’ game in Calgary on Oct. 14 after the first period and missed the team’s next game against Boston.

He picked up his first win of the season on Saturday, when he stopped 26 shots during a 6-1 win over Calgary.

Hill was replaced by Akira Schmid, who is 3-0 with a 3.00 goals-against average and .879 save percentage.
