Spencer Knight | Fantasy Outlook
Knight faces high-volume test as Blackhawks host Penguins at United Center
Spencer Knight is slated for the primary start tonight as the Chicago Blackhawks host the Pittsburgh Penguins at the United Center. Knight holds clear workhorse status in Chicago's net, but his recent form has been testing, posting a 3.75 GAA and .885 save percentage over four outings. Fantasy managers have reacted accordingly, dropping his start rate to roughly 51 percent. It will not be an easy spot tonight with Chicago (1-5-0) entering as a home underdog in an expected higher-scoring environment against Pittsburgh, especially while the Blackhawks contend with key injuries to Connor Bedard and Frank Nazar.
Our projections for tonight expect Knight to log around 24 to 25 saves, but his forecasted ratios remain challenging with a 3.18 GAA and a .885 save percentage, leaving his win chance uncertain. Looking at the weekly slate, Chicago is scheduled for three total games, giving Knight two remaining contests after tonight and an overall projection of roughly 5.9 fantasy points across the week. While the workload offers baseline save volume, the difficult matchup and fragile ratios limit his upside. Today’s action: Cautious Start.
