Beaten three times Hart stopped 24 of 27 shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Wild. Minnesota's fourth goal was an empty-netter late in the third period.

Impact Hart endured a difficult opening period, allowing goals to Matt Boldy, Maxim Shabanov and Danila Yurov within a 5:07 span. The veteran netminder settled down afterward, keeping Minnesota off the scoreboard for the rest of his appearance, but the damage was already done, and the Wild clinched the victory with an empty-netter from Joel Eriksson Ek. This was Hart's second loss of the season, and the second time in five starts he's allowed more than two goals. The netminder is likely to be on the bench against the Predators on Tuesday in the second leg of a back-to-back set, but he could return to the starting lineup against the Flames on Thursday.

Impact Hart will look to extend his win streak to three games Monday after securing an overtime victory over the Kings on Saturday. Overall, the 28-year-old netminder has posted a solid start to the 2026-27 campaign, compiling a 3-1-0 record, a 2.25 GAA and a .910 save percentage across four appearances. He'll face a moderately tough test Monday, however, as the Wild currently average three goals per game to begin the new season. Regardless, Hart remains a go-to starting option between the pipes in most fantasy formats.

Nabs overtime win Hart allowed one goal on 27 shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kings.

Impact This was Hart's best start of the season, and it had to be as the Golden Knights posted their lowest goal total of the campaign. The 28-year-old did his part, and goals by Trevor Connelly and Mitch Marner did the rest. Hart is 3-1-0 with nine goals allowed on 100 shots over his four outings this season. He'll continue to be the Golden Knights' top goalie as long as the results stay positive. Up next is a road back-to-back with stops in Minnesota on Monday and in Nashville on Tuesday, which will likely lead to Hart and Adin Hill splitting the next two games.

Shaky second period in loss Hart allowed four goals on 20 shots in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks.

Impact Hart gave up a goal late in the first period and then allowed three more in the middle stanza. The 28-year-old netminder didn't have much to do as Vegas controlled play in the third, but the comeback effort fell short. Hart has now allowed six goals on 46 shots over his two starts this season. The Golden Knights' tight defense will limit his shots faced, but that could also lead to a lower save percentage when he's not at his best. The Golden Knights are set for a two-game road trip up next, playing in Vancouver on Sunday and in Seattle on Tuesday.

Impact Chicago didn't much going early on, and Hart limited the damage to a goal in each of the last two periods. The 28-year-old Hart is in a good spot to pick up wins, as he'll have a sturdy defense in front of him throughout the year. He's projected to be the Golden Knights' top goalie throughout the campaign, though Adin Hill could get more looks if Hart hits a rough patch. Vegas' next game is Friday at home versus the Ducks.

When the playoffs arrived, he flipped a switch, anchoring the team and posting a 14-8-0 save percentage, a 2.56 GAA and a .907 save percentage across 22 appearances. Hart is a solid No. 2 option in most fantasy formats to open the 2026-27 campaign.

Hart contributed offensively with a secondary assist on Tomas Hertl's second-period power-play goal, but he finished the night with a .750 save percentage as Vegas suffered its first preseason loss. Hart is slated to open the 2026-27 season as the Golden Knights' top-choice goaltender, beginning with the season opener against the Blackhawks on Opening Night.

Impact Hart posted an 11-3-3 record, 2.71 GAA and .891 save percentage in 18 regular-season appearances with Vegas in 2025-26.
