Golden Knights Goalie Could Miss Rest Of Season
According to multiple sources, Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Robin Lehner could miss the rest of the season due a cracked knee cap. Ice Breakers 🧊🏒 4 days until #NHLTradeDeadline:🏒 #VGK fear Lehner could miss remainder of regular season with patella fracture (knee cap)🏒 #stlblues offer goaltending solution🏒 D Market: Lindholm, Giordano, De Haan latest🏒 Paul, Motte updateshttps://t.co/wMMT8Zvtgp— Frank Seravalli (@frank_seravalli) March 17, 2022 At this point all signs point to Robin Lehner’s latest injury being a significant one.I hesitate to put a timeline on it, because of the uncertainty, but it’s very possible he misses the rest of the regular season.— Jesse Granger (@JesseGranger_) March 17, 2022 At this juncture, the Golden Knights have not provided an expected recovery timeline for Lehner. Frank Seravalli also previously noted that the 30-year-old has been playing through a torn labrum, so he is dealing with numerous injury trouble. If Lehner does in fact end up missing the remainder of the season, the Golden Knights will have a serious issue with their goaltending. Furthermore, with the trade deadline being less than a week away, they will have to decide whether or not they will be adding a new goalie to their roster. This is especially true with the team not having a cemented spot in the postseason. In 38 appearances this season, Lehner has a 21-15-1 record, 2.77 GAA, and .909 SV%. We will have to wait and see if the veteran will have the chance to build on these numbers from here. Photo Credit: © Stephen R. Sylvanie-USA TODAY Sports...
