SPENCER KNIGHT NEWS

Heading to Windy City Knight and a 2027 first-round pick were acquired by Chicago from Florida on Saturday in exchange for Seth Jones, per Pierre LeBrun of TSN.

Impact Knight has a 12-8-1 record, 2.40 GAA and .907 save percentage in 23 appearances with the Panthers in 2024-25. Still just 23 years old, Knight has the potential to be Chicago's starting goaltender for years to come. However, he might be in for a rough time in the short term because the rebuilding Blackhawks are likely to offer less support in front of him than he was getting with the Panthers. Knight is in the second season of a three-year, $13.5 million contract and is set to be a restricted free agent at the end of that deal.

The Panthers are back at home for their next game, which is Thursday against the scuffling Oilers.

Impact Knight has won his last two outings, stopping 51 of 56 shots. He has posted a record of 11-8-1 with two shutouts, a 2.47 GAA and a .906 save percentage through 22 appearances this season. Nashville sits 30th in the league with 2.59 goals per game in 2024-25.

Secures win over Blues Knight stopped 20 of 22 shots on his way to a 3-2 victory against St. Louis on Thursday.

Impact Knight has picked up wins in consecutive games for just the second time this season and has featured in two of the Cats' last three contests. While Sergei Bobrovsky remains the No. 1 option in Florida, head coach Paul Maurice has been deploying Knight in closer to a split share of late, which could be a way to keep Bob fresh for a postseason run.

Starting against St. Louis Knight will patrol the road crease in St. Louis on Thursday.

Impact Knight is 4-2-0 in his last seven appearances, with a 1.71 GAA and a .940 save percentage as he is starting to take away starts from the 36-year-old Sergei Bobrovsky in the Florida net. Knight is 10-8-1 with a 2.49 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 21 games this season. The Blues are generating 2.67 goals per game, 27th in the NHL this season.

31 saves in win Knight made 31 saves on the 34 shots he faced in Sunday's 6-3 home win over the Islanders.

Impact Despite a rough third period where the Islanders scored all three of their goals, Knight kept the Panthers' net clean while facing a large volume of shots. With the victory, the 23-year-old eclipsed the 10-win mark on the season. His overall record is 10-8-1 with a .906 save percentage and a 2.49 GAA. It was the netminder's first win between the pipes since Jan. 18, but he has played well since the beginning of 2025 with four wins in seven appearances. He remains firmly behind Sergei Bobrovsky for the top option in Florida's net but can be used as a decent spot-start play in fantasy.

In goal Sunday Knight will protect the home net against the Islanders on Sunday, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.

Impact Knight will get the second half of Florida's back-to-back after Sergei Bobrovsky played in Saturday's 5-1 win over Chicago. The 23-year-old Knight has lost his last two outings, surrendering five goals on 53 shots. He has a 9-8-1 record with two shutouts, a 2.47 GAA and a .905 save percentage through 20 appearances this season. The Islanders sit 26th in the league with 2.73 goals per game in 2024-25 and earned a 3-2 overtime win over Tampa Bay on Saturday.

Loses to Vegas Knight stopped 22 of 25 shots in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Many Knights proved stronger than one in this contest, as the 23-year-old goalie was unable to contained Vegas' bottom six over the first two periods. Knight has now lost consecutive starts, though it's somewhat notable that the Panthers' goalie usage in a pair of back-to-back sets resulted in him facing the tougher opponent (Los Angeles and Vegas) compared to Sergei Bobrovsky (Anaheim and San Jose). In his consecutive losses, Knight has allowed a modest five goals on 53 shots, so the poor results shouldn't hurt his playing time even with Bobrovsky winning both of his starts during the trip. For the season, Knight is 9-8-1 with a 2.47 GAA and a .905 save percentage over 20 appearances. The Panthers return home to face the Kings on Wednesday.

Loses low-scoring game Knight gave up two goals on 28 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Kings.

Impact Knight took his first regulation loss since Dec. 28 -- he had won his last three starts and made one scoreless relief appearance in January. The 23-year-old netminder played well but didn't get enough help with the Panthers in the second half of a back-to-back while playing against a defensively stout opponent. Knight is now 9-7-1 with a 2.43 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 19 appearances. He has played well enough to continue to push Sergei Bobrovsky for playing time. The Panthers have another back-to-back set up next -- they visit the Sharks on Saturday before wrapping up their road trip in Vegas on Sunday.

Second shutout of season Knight made 34 saves in a 3-0 win over the Ducks on Saturday. He also had an assist.

Impact It was his second shutout of the season and fifth of his career. Knight's assist came on an empty-net goal moments after he almost scored an empty-netter himself. He's rung up three straight wins, and he has allowed just 12 goals in his last six starts (4-2-0) after allowing 10 goals over two games to start December. Knight's game seems to be sharpening. Drop him into your paint if he's designated to start.

Makes relief appearance Knight stopped all four shots he faced in relief of Sergei Bobrovsky in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact Knight wasn't tested much in 22:02 of ice time. The Red Wings scored an empty-netter while Knight was pulled for an extra attacker. For the season, Knight is 8-6-1 with a 2.60 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 17 appearances. He hasn't had much of a chance to steal playing time, but Bobrovsky has a poor 1-4-1 record over six outings in January, so this could be Knight's best chance to claim a larger share of the crease.

Earns win after shootout Knight stopped 26 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout win over the Devils.

Impact Knight started for the first time since Jan. 3 and secured the shootout win, giving him three wins across his last four outings. His fantasy appeal isn't very high due to his backup role, but he's proving to be a solid option between the pipes when needed. He's gone 3-2-0 with a 2.33 GAA and a .908 save percentage across his past five appearances.
