He has dealt with multiple injuries this year, allowing him to start only 44 games. The Golden Knights' back-up,
Laurent Brossoit, is also on LTIR so the starter gig falls to
Logan Thompson (who's been great) with
Jiri Patera as the back-up.
Thompson has a .918 in his 13 games for Vegas so far, and Patera has played 21 games for VGK's AHL team the Henderson Silver Knights. There is a back-to-back coming up in Dallas and Chicago, which would provide an opportunity for his NHL debut.
