Knight will start vs. the Islanders on Tuesday.

Knight has been a staple between the pipes for the Blackhawks this season, a constant bright spot in an up-and-down season, but he is coming off one of his worst performances of the season. The 24-year-old Knight allowed four goals on nine shots (.556 SV%) before being pulled in Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins. That said, Knight has a solid 2.65 GAA and .910 SV% in 26 games this season (10-11-5). The Blackhawks enter Tuesday's contest as +122 home underdogs against a New York Islanders team that has lost four of its last six games (2-3-1).
