PHILADELPHIA -- Golden Knights goalie Carter Hart is not starting against the Flyers on Thursday in what would have been his return to Philadelphia, Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said Thursday morning.
Vegas has started Hart in back-to-back games, including Tuesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the New York Islanders. Hart is expected to start on Saturday in Columbus on the final game of Vegas' road trip.
Akira Schmid, who last played Friday and shut out the Devils, will start.
"Carter wants to play every game. He's a very competitive guy," Cassidy said.
