Adin Hill #33 of the Vegas Golden Knights
Adin Hill and Tomas Hertl participated fully in today’s practice session with the Vegas Golden Knights.
Hill made his return to practice for the first time since March 23, following a lower-body injury sustained against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Throughout this season, Hill has maintained a .914 save percentage and a 2.62 goals-against average. However, prior to his injury, he was experiencing his toughest stretch of the season.

During practice, Hertl was observed skating on the second line alongside Chandler Stephenson and Michael Amadio. Notably, Hertl has yet to make an appearance with the Golden Knights since his acquisition at the trade deadline. There is a possibility that he may debut with the team on Monday, as they travel to Vancouver to face the Canucks.

It’s worth mentioning that William Carrier and Nicolas Roy were still absent from practice. Meanwhile, Brendan Brisson continued to skate on the fourth line, with Hertl occupying Paul Cotter’s position. Additionally, Alex Pietrangelo was also absent from practice, having been withdrawn from the lineup just minutes before Friday’s game against the Arizona Coyotes.

According to head coach Bruce Cassidy, Hertl is expected to travel with the team and is likely to play. Hill will also travel, while Pietrangelo, Roy, and Carrier will not. Fortunately, Logan Thompson seems to be in good condition after leaving practice early.
With six games remaining on their schedule, the Golden Knights currently trail the Los Angeles Kings by a single point for third place in the Pacific Division.
