Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Gives up four goals Wednesday
Rotowire
Knight stopped 20 of 24 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Wild.
Knight extended his winless skid to three starts, and he's been unable to post a save percentage of at least .890 in two of those games. Knight's role as Chicago's No. 1 goaltender isn't under any threat, but his results have been subpar lately. He's gone 1-2-2 with a 2.79 GAA and a .905 save percentage over his last five starts. That's a significant drop from the 2.59 GAA and .914 save percentage he posted in October.
Knight will start Wednesday's home game against the Wild, Vinnie Parise of The Hockey News reports.
Knight has been solid in November, going 3-2-2 with a 2.13 GAA and a .935 save percentage, but both of his regulation losses have come in his last two starts. He'll have a favorable matchup in his attempt to get back on track, as Minnesota is tied for the eighth-worst mark in the league with 2.87 goals per game this year.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Takes unlucky loss Sunday
Rotowire
Knight stopped 25 of 26 shots in Sunday's 1-0 loss to the Avalanche.
Knight played well but got no goal support from his teammates. Cale Makar's tally at 18:21 of the second period was the only one of the game. Knight has allowed a modest 10 goals on 123 shots over his last four outings, and that makes him unlucky to be 1-2-1 in that span. On the year, he's at a 7-5-3 record with a 2.38 GAA and a .924 save percentage through 15 starts. His record may depend on how the team in front of him performs, but Knight's performance is positioning him well as a breakout player this year. The Blackhawks will be back in action against the suddenly stingy Wild on Wednesday, which could end up being another tight game.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Starting Sunday
Rotowire
Knight will get the start Sunday against the Avalanche, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.
Knight has been one of the league's best goaltenders this season, sporting a .922 save percentage that's the second best in the NHL. The 24-year-old is coming off of a loss in his last start, surrendering three third-period goals to the Kraken on Thursday. The Avalanche will present a stiff test for the young netminder; Colorado leads the league with 4.14 goals per game and has one regulation loss through 21 games.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Late collapse in loss
Rotowire
Knight stopped 24 of 27 shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.
After dominating the first two periods, Knight and the Blackhawks' defense allowed room for the Kraken to come back and steal the win with three goals in the final 15 minutes. With the loss, the 24-year-old goaltender has a 7-4-3 record with a 2.47 GAA and a .922 save percentage in 14 appearances this season. Even though the win slipped through his fingers Thursday, Knight's first full season with Chicago has been nothing short of elite. With the Blackhawks' defense allowing a plethora of attempts on goal per game, he's been challenged between the pipes and has responded well, allowing more than three goals in a game just twice this season. While Thursday's loss can be seen as discouraging, Knight ranks fourth among all goalies in fantasy leagues that track shots against, making him a must-own player in most formats for the foreseeable future.

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Falls in overtime
Rotowire
Knight stopped 33 of 37 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Devils.
Knight failed to uphold three separate leads in the game, and defenseman Simon Nemec completed his hat trick in overtime to send Knight to the defeat. While Knight has gone 2-1-2 over his last five games, he's allowed a reasonable 15 goals in that span, which is notable because he's faced at least 30 shots in each of those outings. The 24-year-old is at a 6-3-3 record with a 2.46 GAA and a .923 save percentage over 12 appearances. Knight has been an integral part of the Blackhawks' early success this season, so expect him to continue seeing ample playing time.

Rotowire
Knight posted a 33-save shutout in Friday's 4-0 win over the Flames.
Knight cooled off the Flames' recent success on offense and delivered a strong performance for his first shutout in a Blackhawks sweater. It was the sixth shutout of Knight's career, and he's allowed two or fewer goals in six of his 11 outings this season. He improved to 6-3-2 with a 2.33 GAA and a .926 save percentage. Knight and the Blackhawks have both taken a step forward this year, and he should continue to be a reliable fantasy netminder as long as the team in front of him does its job. The Blackhawks close out their road trip Sunday in Detroit.
Knight will guard the road goal versus the Canucks on Wednesday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Knight has hit a bit of a skid, going 1-1-1 with 12 goals allowed on 86 shots over his last three games. He may get a bit of a reprieve against a Canucks team that is far from full strength, though Conor Garland (undisclosed) will be back in the lineup.

Rotowire

Blackhawks' Spencer Knight: Set to face Tampa Bay
Rotowire
Knight is expected to start on the road against Tampa Bay on Thursday.
Knight is 2-2-1 with a 1.96 GAA and a .937 save percentage across five appearances this year. The 24-year-old goaltender has a 3-1-0 record, 3.11 GAA and .901 save percentage in four career regular-season outings against Tampa Bay. While Tampa Bay is a talented squad, the Lightning haven't played like it so far this season -- they're 1-3-2 and rank 30th in goals per game with 2.67 -- so Knight might be facing them at an opportune time.
