Vegas fans have been hit with some hard news this offseason. They got Jack Eichel midseason, but that's about all that went right for them. The Knights traded Max Pacioretty to the Carolina Hurricanes, but then Carolina fans were hit with some hard news that Pacioretty will be out for the season.
Another Knight has been hit with some hard news, or in Max's case former Knight, Robin Lehner is out for the season as he needs hip surgery. He was injured last season with a leg injury last regular season and a shoulder injury in the offseason, only having 44 starts this season. Robin just can't stay healthy.
He's a decent goaltender who surely has his highlight reel. Robin Lehner had a .917 save percentage this year, with 23 wins and 17 losses, with over 1,000 saves this season. He let up just over 100 goals this season with 2.83 goals against per game. He had 1 shutout with season, with 17 career shutouts. He can be a good goaltender; it's just disappointing he can't stay healthy, as the past few seasons he has played no more than 50 games per season.
