Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Adin Hill suffered an injury Saturday against the Columbus Blue Jackets and was forced to leave the game in the third period.
Hill, 27, appeared to suffer the injury after he stretched out to make a left-pad save on a shot from Blue Jackets forward Cole Sillinger.
The netminder subsequently headed down the tunnel and was replaced by backup Logan Thompson. Vegas led 3-1 at the time of his injury.
After the team's 4-2 win, Golden Knights coach Bruce Cassidy told reporters Hill came to the bench and said he was not 100 per cent, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic. He had no further update.
Heading into Saturday's matchup, Hill was sitting at a 2.65 goals-against average and .914 save percentage across 31 games.
The reigning Stanley Cup champion Golden Knights currently hold the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
