BREAKING: Vegas Announces Huge Lineup Change Ahead of Game 4 vs Oilers
In a crucial Game 4 between the Vegas Golden Knights and the Edmonton Oilers, the Golden Knights have announced their starting goaltender for the matchup. With the series currently favoring Vegas at 2-1, they are just two wins away from eliminating Connor McDavid and the Oilers.
In their previous encounter on Monday, Vegas secured a convincing 5-1 victory. However, their triumph came at a cost as their goaltender, Laurent Brossoit, suffered a worrisome injury.
No update has been provided on his condition, but he is officially ruled out until further notice. This unfortunate turn of events thrusts lifelong backup goaltender Adin Hill into the spotlight as he takes the reins between the pipes tonight.
The Golden Knights' starting goalie, Logan Thompson, has also not resumed skating. Meaning Vegas' two goaltenders suiting up tonight are AHL starters, and have next-to-nothing playoff experience.
The Oilers will undoubtedly seek to exploit this inexperienced goaltender, aiming to capitalize on the absence of Brossoit. As the tension mounts, all eyes will be on Hill as he faces the challenge of protecting the Golden Knights' lead and fending off the determined Oilers.
