Vegas Golden Knights goalie Carter Hart is week to week with a lower-body injury, coach Bruce Cassidy said Saturday, after the team's morning skate and before its home game against St. Louis.
Hart was injured in the first period of Thursday night's 5-3 victory over Columbus.
Akira Schmid (12-4-5) will start against the Blues. He has a 2.51 goals-against average and a .895 save percentage.
The club called up Carl Lindbom from its American Hockey League affiliate in Henderson, Nevada. Lindbom has seven starts for the Golden Knights this season and went 1-4-2 with a 3.14 GAA and .870 save percentage.
