Panthers' Spencer Knight: First shutout of season
Knight made 20 saves Saturday in a 6-0 win over Carolina.
The Hurricanes didn't show up for this game, but that doesn't devalue the win or shutout, which was Knight's first of the season and fourth of his career. And it was the young netminder's first shutout since Nov. 9, 2022, when he made 40 saves in a 3-0 win against Carolina. The victory snapped a three-game skid for Knight, a worthy fantasy activation whenever he gets the nod.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Between pipes Saturday
Knight will protect the home goal versus Carolina on Saturday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
Knight has lost his last three starts, allowing seven goals on 71 shots. He is 3-4-0 with a 2.63 GAA and a .902 save percentage in eight appearances this season. The Hurricanes rank second in the league with 3.96 goals per game this campaign.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Downed by Capitals
Knight turned aside 27 of 29 shots faces during Monday's 4-1 home loss to the Capitals.
Knight turned in another solid performance and kept the Panthers in it until Jakob Chychrun's power-play marker in the third period. The 23-year-old Knight fell to 3-4-0 in eight appearances thus far in the 2024-25 season. Sergei Bobrovsky is firmly entrenched as the starter in goal, so Knight's playing time is likely to remain fairly sparse.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Set to start Monday
Knight was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Colby Guy of The Palm Beach Post reports, indicating he will protect the home net Monday against Washington.
Knight has lost his last two outings, stopping 37 of 42 shots. He has a 3-3-0 record with a 2.73 GAA and an .897 save percentage through seven appearances this season. Washington is tied for first in the league with 4.05 goals per game in 2024-25, but the absence of Alex Ovechkin (fibula) waters down the team's offensive firepower.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Takes low-scoring loss
Knight gave up two goals on 19 shots in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Blackhawks. The third goal was an empty-netter.
The Blackhawks' goals against Knight came on a power play and a breakaway, so it's not all his fault. He did fine to keep the game close, but it wasn't a dominant performance in net by any means. Knight has lost his last two starts, giving up five goals on 42 shots in that span. For the season, he's 3-3-0 with a 2.72 GAA and an .897 save percentage across seven appearances. Sergei Bobrovsky will likely be back in goal for Saturday's home game against the Avalanche.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Set to start Thursday
Knight will protect the road goal versus the Blackhawks on Thursday, Doug Plagens of the Panthers Radio Network reports.
Knight will start for the first time in four games. He took a loss Nov. 12 against the Devils, allowing three goals on 23 shots in that start. The 23-year-old netminder will have an easier matchup Thursday, as the Blackhawks are averaging just 2.32 goals per game.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Downed by Devils
Knight stopped 20 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to New Jersey, with the Devils' final goal getting scored into an empty net.
The Panthers had trouble solving Jacob Markstrom in the other crease, giving Knight no margin for error even though he made some big saves to keep things close. The 23-year-old goalie has made six appearances this season as Sergei Bobrovsky's understudy, going 3-2-0 with a 2.85 GAA and .897 save percentage.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Tending twine Tuesday
Knight will guard the cage at home versus the Devils on Tuesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
After Sergei Bobrovsky was the first goalie to leave the ice at Tuesday's game-day skate, all signs pointed to the veteran getting the nod but it seems Knight will go instead against New Jersey. In five outings this year, the 23-year-old backstop is 3-1-0 with a 2.79 GAA and .902 save percentage. Depending on how head coach Paul Maurice wants to rotate his goalies, Knight could get 2-3 more starts in November.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Gets win after small wobble
Knight made 23 saves in a 4-2 win over Dallas on Saturday as part of the NHL Global Series in Finland.
He surrendered two goals, including a power-play marker, in 34 seconds during the second period but settled down afterward. Knight is 3-1-0 with a 2.79 GAA and a .902 save percentage in four starts this season. And with the Panthers' collective confidence growing, Knight is a strong start in daily formats.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Between the pipes Saturday
Knight will patrol the home crease versus Dallas in Finland on Saturday, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.
Knight is 2-1-0 in four appearances with the Panthers this season, giving up 10 goals on 98 shots. Knight is considered Florida's goaltender of the future, and with Sergei Bobrovsky struggling a tad at the age of 36, the 23-year-old Knight could be in line for 30-plus starts this season. Dallas has averaged 3.20 goals per game this season.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Earns win Saturday
Knight stopped 25 of 28 shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Knight endured a rough start to Saturday's contest and gave up three goals over the first 12 minutes of play, but he settled down afterward and allowed the Panthers to spark an impressive comeback in the final two periods. Knight has gone 2-1-0 with a 3.03 GAA and a .898 save percentage through four appearances this season, and he should remain a solid backup alternative to Sergei Bobrovsky, who should return to the Panthers' crease for Monday's game at Buffalo.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Slated to start Saturday
Knight was the first goaltender off the ice at morning skate and is expected to get the road start against the Islanders on Saturday, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.
Knight will get his first start in five games, though he came on in relief of Sergei Bobrovsky on Tuesday and stopped all six shots in a 5-1 loss to the Wild. Knight is 1-1-0 in three appearances, turning aside 63 of 70 shots (.900 save percentage). The Islanders have posted 2.43 goals per game in seven appearances this season.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Needed in relief Tuesday
Knight stopped all six shots he faced after replacing Sergei Bobrovsky to begin the third period of Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Wild.
Knight gave the Panthers a chance to mount a comeback, although they didn't exactly seize it, managing only four shots on net in the final period. The 23-year-old goalie has held up reasonably well to begin the season, posting a 3.04 GAA and .900 save percentage in his three appearances, but Knight's workload is likely to remain small behind Bobrovsky, especially with the latter still hunting for his 400th career win.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Holds on for win Tuesday
Knight turned aside 35 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
The 23-year-old netminder got plenty of help from his posts on the night -- Zach Werenski struck iron on multiple occasions alone -- but Knight also made some big stops, including an absolute robbery of Yegor Chinakhov inside the final minute on what would have been the tying goal. Knight has started two of the Panthers' first five games, going 1-1-0 with an .891 save percentage, and he appears to be settling in nicely as Sergei Bobrovsky's backup.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: In goal against Jackets
Knight will get the starting nod on the road versus the Blue Jackets on Tuesday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.
Knight will take the second game of a back-to-back after Sergei Bobrovsky was in the crease for Monday's 4-3 win over the Bruins. In his previous appearance this season, the 23-year-old Knight gave up four goals on 26 shots (.846 save percentage) in a losing effort versus Buffalo. The Panthers don't have any more back-to-backs in October, but Knight could still get another game to close out the opening month of the season.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Rattled by Sabres
Knight stopped 22 of 26 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Buffalo, with the Sabres' final goal getting scored into an empty net.
The Panthers grabbed a 1-0 lead midway through the first period, but the next four goals were all by the Sabres, with Knight getting a clean look at two of them. It wasn't a great start to the season for the 23-year-old netminder, but he should get a chance to shake it off with Florida playing back-to-back games Monday and Tuesday as the team completes a road swing in Boston and Columbus.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Starting Saturday
Knight will guard the road net Saturday against the Sabres, Doug Plagens of the Panthers Radio Network reports.
After he was recalled from AHL Charlotte earlier in the week, Knight will make his season debut Saturday in Buffalo. The 23-year-old netminder will serve as Sergei Bobrovsky's primary backup this year.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Recalled by Florida
Knight was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Wednesday.
Knight wasn't included on Florida's 23-man roster to begin the regular season, but he'll rejoin the Panthers following their Opening Night win over the Bruins on Tuesday. Chris Driedger was assigned to the team's AHL affiliate to make room on the roster. Knight hasn't appeared in the NHL since the 2022-23 season, when he logged a 9-8-3 record, 3.18 GAA and .901 save percentage over 21 games.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Not on Opening Night roster
Knight is not among Florida's 23-man roster, David Dwork of The Hockey News reports Monday.
Knight is waivers exempt, so he'll head to AHL Charlotte. It's possible that the 23-year-old will be recalled to the NHL in the coming days if the Panthers are sifting through financial logistics related to the salary cap. The 2019 first-round pick sports a career record of 32-17-6 with a 2.91 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 57 regular-season appearances.

Panthers' Spencer Knight: Sharp in OT win
Knight made 26 saves in Wednesday's 2-1 preseason OT win over the Lightning.
Nikita Kucherov spoiled Kngiht's shutout bid late in the third period with a one-timer off a faceoff in the Florida zone, but it was otherwise a stellar effort from the netminder. The 23-year-old needed a good performance after a bumpy beginning to his preseason. Knight spent all of last season in the AHL as he learned to tame his OCD, but he could be ready for another crack at the NHL as Sergei Bobrovsky's backup.
