Slated to start Thursday Knight is expected to start on the road against Minnesota on Thursday, per Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News.

Impact Knight has a 17-19-9 record, 2.67 GAA and .907 save percentage in 45 outings in 2025-26. He's dropped his past two starts (0-1-1) while allowing eight goals on 69 shots (.884 save percentage). Minnesota ranks 10th in goals per game with 3.28 this season, but the Wild will be without Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) on Thursday.

Comes up short in OT Knight made 33 saves in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Wild.

Impact Minnesota grabbed a 3-1 lead in the first period, but Knight stood tall over the next 40 minutes to give Chicago a chance to tie it up. There wasn't much the 24-year-old netminder could do on Mats Zuccarello's one-timer from the slot in OT, however. Knight has just one win in his last seven starts, going 1-4-2 over that stretch wit ha 2.96 GAA and .900 save percentage.

Impact Knight is coming off a 28-save effort in Saturday's 4-0 loss to Vegas. He has a 17-19-8 record this campaign with three shutouts, a 2.64 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 44 appearances. Minnesota sits 12th in the league with 3.26 goals per game this season.

On wrong side of shutout Knight stopped 28 of 32 shots in Saturday's 4-0 loss to Vegas.

Impact Three of the goals against came in a span of 3:27 in the middle of the first period. Knight has lost five of his last six outings, but this was the first time he allowed four goals since Jan. 25 versus the Panthers. Knight is now at a 17-19-8 record with a 2.64 GAA and a .908 save percentage over 44 starts in his first year as a full-time starter. The Blackhawks' schedule doesn't get easier next week, as they have a home-and-home with the Wild before facing the Avalanche on the second half of a back-to-back, which makes Knight a risky fantasy option in the short term.

MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to start Saturday Knight is projected to tend the road goal versus the Golden Knights on Saturday, Vinnie Parise of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Knight returned from a three-game absence and earned a 3-2 overtime win over the Mammoth on Thursday. He's now set to wrap up the Blackhawks' short road trip with a tough matchup in Vegas. The Golden Knights have scored 17 goals over their last six games, though they have just two wins in that span.

The 24-year-old improved to 17-18-8 with a 2.61 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 43 appearances this season. Now that he's healthy, Knight is likely to handle a majority of the starts for the Blackhawks. They wrap up this brief road trip in Vegas on Saturday.

Not ready to return Knight (illness) won't be in the lineup for Monday's home matchup against Utah, according to Mario Tirabassi of CHGO Sports.

Impact Knight was on the ice briefly for Monday's optional morning skate, but he will miss his third straight game. He has some additional time to recover, as Chicago is off until Thursday's road rematch against the Mammoth.

Unavailable for Sunday Knight (illness) will not accompany the team to Dallas for Sunday's tilt, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.

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.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

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.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

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.

MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE

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.

FEBRUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE

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.
