Loses low-scoring game

Expected starter Wednesday

Panthers goaltender Spencer Knight, who has been playing some excellent hockey of late, had just earned his second shutout of the season after making 34 saves against the Ducks.

Panthers goaltender Spencer Knight is 4-1 with 133 saves on 142 shots (.937 save percentage) with a 1.61 goals-against since Dec. 22.

Sergei Bobrovsky is the proven veteran. Spencer Knight is on a bit of a hot streak. How does that impact how Paul Maurice is going to handle reps between his two goaltenders?
