Hart's Hot Streak in Vegas

0:00On April 23rd, Carter Hart is lighting it up in net for the Vegas Golden Knights during their first round playoffs against the Utah Mammoth. The series is tied after splitting the first two games, and Hart's play under coach John Torturella is a big reason why. This reunion feels like old times since Torturella coached Hart back in Philadelphia. Hart spent his first six NHL seasons with the Flyers under Torts, and now in Vegas, that familiarity is paying off big. No need for Hart to prove himself, he just plays free. Torturella knows exactly what he brings, making the goalie choice straightforward in this high-stakes spot. Former goalie Devon Dubnic broke it down perfectly, towards the scene Hart at his best on and off the ice so there's trust there. It's a win for both, no guessing games with three goalies fighting for starts. That comfort is boosting Hart right now. Hart stats back it up with the fourth best playoff save percentage at 0.935 and a 2.56 goals

1:00against average. He finished strong in the regular season 2, hitting 0.909 or better in his last five games. Meanwhile, Vegas only scored six goals across those two games, including an empty netter. To knock up the Mammoth and chase another cup, the Knights got a ramp up the offense behind heart. Tougher rounds wait if they advance, but with this hot hand in net, they're locked in and ready to roll. This has been NHL News Today, powered by AI.
