The Golden Knights’ net belongs to Logan Thompson and Laurent Brossoit.
General manager Kelly McCrimmon said Thursday that’s the tandem the team will go with in the wake of goaltender Robin Lehner’s hip injury, expected to sideline him for the season. Lehner needs surgery on both hips, and McCrimmon said he thinks one procedure has been done.
The timing of Lehner’s injury, which was announced Aug. 11, didn’t leave the Knights many options in the free agent or trade market. They also didn’t feel compelled to make a move after discussions with coach Bruce Cassidy and director of goaltending Sean Burke.
