Hill was the first goalie off Tuesday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports, indicating he'll tend the twine on the road versus Washington.
Hill is undefeated through two starts to open the 2024-25 campaign despite posting a 3.50 GAA and a .870 save percentage. If the netminder can't improve on those numbers soon, he will find victories significantly more difficult to come by. Hill will likely face a busy night in Washington, as the Caps are registering 32.0 shots per game (seventh most in the league).
