Lehner's injury brings uncertainty to the Golden Knights' goaltending.

The Vegas Golden Knights announced that starting goaltender Robin Lehner will miss the entire upcoming season due to hip surgery. This has raised concerns among fans, especially following the trade of former goaltender Marc-André Fleury. Lehner, who has faced injury issues since joining the team, had previously replaced Fleury and received a five-year contract extension. Despite injuries, Lehner performed well when healthy, notably being a key player in the team's success early last season. With backup goalie Laurent Brossoit also recovering from surgery, Logan Thompson is expected to step in, although he has limited experience with only 17 career starts. The team may consider putting Lehner on long-term injury reserve to manage salary cap space.
