Maxime Lagace News
In his first year in the Boston Bruins organization, Lagace played the whole season in Providence (AHL). The 27-year-old netminder was second in the AHL in wins (22) and ninth in SV% (.919). Lagace is expected to be the No.1 netidner in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL) to start 2021 and would be the first goalie recalled if Tristan Jarry or Casey DeSmith get hurt.
Lagace replaced Dan Vladar as the Bruins No.2 and comes up after going 14-6-2 with a 2.49 GAA and .915 SV% in 23 AHL games. He has gone 6-8-1 with a 3.92 GAA and .868 SV% in 17 career NHL games (all with Vegas).
Returning Lagace to Chicago suggests that Marc-Andre Fleury will be back on Thursday. The 26-year-old goes back to the AHL where he is 16-8-1 with a 2.33 GAA and .917 SV% in 29 games.
Lagace appeared in just one game with the Golden Knights while Malcolm Subban was sidelined and returns to the AHL, where he has gone 9-6-0 with a 2.79 GAA and .899 SV%.
Lagace will make his season debut after going 9-6-0 with a 2.79 GAA and .899 SV% in 19 AHL games this season. Lagace was 6-7-1 with a 3.92 GAA and .867 SV% in 16 games with the Golden Knights last year, so keep him on the waiver wire tonight in Carolina.
Lagace has gone 9-6-0 with a 2.72 GAA and .898 SV% in 18 games with Chicago this season. With Malcolm Subban banged up, Lagace will serve as the Golden Knights No.2 netminder on Thursday.
