He has some additional time to recover, as Chicago is off until Thursday's road rematch against the Mammoth. Knight has a 16-18-8 record this season with three shutouts, a 2.63 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 42 appearances.

Impact Knight missed Friday's game against Vancouver with the illness. The hope is that he will be good to go Monday when Utah plays in Chicago. Knight is 16-18-8 with three shutouts, a 2.63 GAA and a .908 save percentage. The Blackhawks recalled Drew Commesso on Saturday and he could start in Dallas on Sunday.

Not available Friday Knight (illness) won't suit up for Friday's game versus the Canucks, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.

Impact Knight will miss at least one game, and Arvid Soderblom will start Friday. Caydon Edwards is the emergency backup goalie for this contest but shouldn't be expected to see the ice unless Soderblom gets hurt. Knight's status for Sunday in Dallas is not yet clear, but the Blackhawks would likely dip into their depth at AHL Rockford if he is still sick over the weekend.

Tagged with OT loss Knight stopped 29 of 32 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Jets.

Impact Knight has dropped four straight starts, but at least this time he took the game into overtime. Despite the subpar record, it's worth noting that Knight has allowed three or fewer goals in each of his last seven outings, going 1-4-2 with a 2.84 GAA and an .892 save percentage. Those aren't the best numbers, but they're better than what a four-game losing skid would indicate. Over the four-game losing stretch, Knight owns a 2.77 GAA and a .900 save percentage while stopping 99 of 110 shots faced.

Tending twine Tuesday Knight will guard the cage on the road versus the Jets on Tuesday, per The Hockey News.

Impact Knight is currently riding a three-game losing streak despite having posted a 2.73 GAA over that stretch. While victories figure to be hard to come by for the backstop, given his supporting cast, he should still be capable of reaching the 20-win mark for the first time in his career.

Posts solid outing in loss Knight turned aside 32 of 34 shots on net in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Despite ending up in the win column, Knight put together a strong performance that kept the Blackhawks in Saturday's game until Colorado's Cale Makar deposited an empty-net goal. Overall, the 24-year-old Knight now has a 16-18-7 record, a 2.62 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 41 outings this season. While the Blackhawks struggle to produce consistent offense to help Knight find the win column, his save percentage and GAA numbers make him a goaltender worth rostering in nearly all fantasy formats. While he'll likely get a game of rest during the second half of the back-to-back, he'll have a strong chance to return to action in Tuesday's game against the Jets.

Starting in Colorado Knight will defend the road net against the Avalanche on Saturday, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.

Impact Knight stopped 22 of 25 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to Nashville, with the fourth goal being an empty-netter. He has a 16-17-7 record this campaign with a 2.63 GAA and a .907 save percentage through 40 appearances. Colorado ranks first in the league with 3.81 goals per game during the 2025-26 season.

Yields three goals in loss Knight gave up three goals on 25 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Predators. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Knight had a 2-1 lead to protect in the third period, but he wasn't up to the task. He's lost in regulation in four of his last six outings, and he's given up at least three goals in seven straight games. The 24-year-old is down to 16-17-7 with a 2.63 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 40 games. It's possible the career-high workload is catching up to him, especially with a young defense in front of him. Knight and Arvid Soderblom can be expected to split this weekend's back-to-back set, which has the Blackhawks visiting the Avalanche on Saturday and the Mammoth on Sunday.

Gets no help in Wednesday's loss Knight stopped 16 of 19 shots in Wednesday's 4-0 loss to Columbus, with the Blue Jackets' final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact Chicago apparently got an early start on its Olympic break, as the offense was a no-show in Columbus and the defense let the Jackets buzz around Knight all night. The 24-year-old netminder has allowed at least three goals in six straight starts, going 2-3-1 over that stretch with a 3.11 GAA and .872 save percentage, and a few weeks off will probably do him some good.

He made a home start against the Blue Jackets on Friday and turned aside 22 of 25 shots (.880 save percentage) in a 4-2 loss.

Starting against San Jose Knight will start Monday's home game against the Sharks, Vinnie Parise of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Knight has been in a bit of a skid over the past week, going 0-2-1 with a 3.27 GAA and .861 save percentage over his last three starts. However, he'll attempt to right the ship against the Sharks, who are scoring 3.09 goals per game this year, which is tied for 17th in the league.

Dealt loss Friday Knight stopped 22 of 25 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Knight ended up with his third straight loss, as he couldn't contain the third-line duo of Charlie Coyle (hat trick, assist) and Mathieu Olivier (one goal, one assist). During the skid, Knight has given up 10 goals on 72 shots. He's now at a 15-15-7 record with a 2.60 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 37 starts this season. Knight has had some good stretches, but he's still prone to some struggles while acting as the last layer of defense for a young team. He'll likely get the nod for Monday's home game versus the Sharks, as he has typically been starting two of every three games recently.
