Thompson missed the Golden Knights' practice Tuesday and is not expected to join the team as they head out on a road trip to Denver Wednesday. It comes at a bad time as Adin Hill (undisclosed) has yet to return to the team (but is expected soon). The 26-year-old net-minder has a 12-8-3 record, 2.83 GAA and .902 SV% in 24 games played this season.
Thompson will start his fourth straight game for the Golden Knights on Thursday and look for only his second win in five starts. In his last six games (2-4-0), Thompson has allowed three or more goals four times, posting an ugly .866 SV% after posting a more serviceable .915 SV% in his five games prior (4-0-1). The Golden Knights are slight +103 home underdogs against a Panthers team that has won five straight, including a 4-2 victory over the Golden Knights on December 23rd.
Thompson will be back between the pipes for the Golden Knights on Thursday for the second time in as many nights after he made his return from an upper-body injury on Wednesday. It's a bit of a surprising move considering Thompson is coming off an injury and did not look particularly sharp in Anaheim on Wednesday, when he allowed five goals on just 26 shots enroute to a 5-2 defeat. Vegas will be hoping he can find his form and put an end to their four-game losing streak when they host the Kings on Thursday.
Thompson will draw the Golden Knights' crease for the first time in three games after backing up their previous two losses but will start Wednesday on the road in Anaheim. The 26-year-old has struggled compared to his previous two season in 2023-24, with his 10-5-3 record, 2.71 GAA and .905 SV%. He will look to get Vegas out of their current three-game slump as they take on Anaheim, who has lost their last two games and are 29th in the NHL in goals per game (2.58 GAA).
Adin Hill returned to action on Sunday but exited the game shortly after with an injury. Thompson jumped into the crease and saved 20 of 22 shots in relief (.909 SV%) en route to a 6-3 win over the Ottawa Senators and will start again on Tuesday. Thompson has won five of seven games in December (5-1-1), posting a .904 SV% in the process. The Golden Knights are +118 road underdogs against the Carolina Hurricanes, who have lost two straight games.
Adin Hill is nearing a return but is not ready to play yet, as Thompson will start for the second straight game and eighth time in the last nine games for the Golden Knights. Thompson has been serviceable since Hill went down with an injury, making his case to hopefully have at least a time-share when he returns, posting a .911 SV% in six games (4-0-1). The Golden Knights have won four straight games and are sizeable -200 home favourites against a Buffalo Sabres team that has lost two of their last three (1-1-1) and will be without top-six forward Jeff Skinner (upper-body).
Thompson will search for his third straight win when he returns to the crease on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames. The 26-year-old netminder has been solid all season, but especially impressive lately, posting a .929 SV% over his last four games (3-0-1). The Golden Knights are -191 home favourites against a Flames team that has lost two straight and four of their last five (1-4-0).
Thompson will make his third consecutive start on Wednesday as Adin Hill continues to recover from a lower-body injury. Thompson has been stellar in place of Hill, stopping 46 of the 49 shots he's faced (.939 SV%) across his last two starts. On the season he owns a 6-3-3 record to go along with a .919 SV% and a 2.33 GAA. He draws a favourable matchup on Wednesday with the Golden Knights being sizable road favourites (-165) in St. Louis.
With Adin Hill still day-to-day, Thompson will likely start for the second straight game and look to build off a fantastic 21-save performance (.955 SV%) in a 4-1 victory over the Washington Capitals on Saturday. Thompson had been delegated to starting roughly one of every three games for the Golden Knights but should continue to be the primary netminder as long as Hill is unable to play. The Golden Knights are considerable -182 home favourites on Monday against a St. Louis Blues team held to only one goal in two of their last three games (1-2-0).

Thompson will return to the Golden Knights' crease on Tuesday after Adin Hill got the start in Calgary on Monday. Thompson last appeared in Saturday's game against the Coyotes, stopping 16 of the 17 shots he faced in the 2-0 defeat. The 26-year-old netminder has been stellar when called upon this season, owning a 5-3-1 record and a .922 SV%. He'll have his hands full tonight against Connor McDavid and the Oilers.
Thompson has backed up Adin Hill for the Golden Knights' previous two games but will take the crease back Saturday as they head host Arizona. The 26-year-old has enjoyed an excellent start to his 2023-24 season while splitting starts, with his 5-2-1 record, 2.48 GAA and .920 SV%. He will face the Arizona Coyotes, who is looking to snap a three-game losing streak and are struggling to get pucks on net as they are 30th in the NHL in shots per game (27.7).
