Johnston said the Golden Knights’ goaltending situation could give Hart a fair chance to play. Starter Adin Hill has limited NHL experience, and Akira Schmid is listed as a backup. So, Hart would face real competition for starts."At this point in time, it sounds like Vegas is the favorite to land Carter Hart. He's looking for an opportunity that can win," Johnston said, "And it's hard, if you look around, you know, the way that the chair is set up right now, and at the goaltending position. It's hard to think or to find a spot where I think more starts would be available to him."Nothing can be official until Hart is signed. And once signed, he can begin the visa process to move. The Golden Knights last won Stanley Cup in 2023, and Hart can help them compete for another.
