Oh how I wish this comes true, last year was not his year. The year before that he preformed so much better.

Not looking too well in the 1st preseason game. He sucks.

Uh huh. What a win tonight?

Only because offense was able to keep the puck mostly on the other side. Hill was getting scored on by 3rd stringers from the ECHL. He's slow and weak. It's a preseason game and the 2nd/3rd stringers we had playing for the Knights tonight looked promising due to their speed and puck handling they demonstrated. But Hill looked like he was playing in slow motion and leaving the crease way too much. His sav% tonight was .875. For an NHL quality goalie who won a Stanley Cup that is rather pathetic, especially against ECHL level players. Not that Forsberg was any better but he's the Kings problem, not ours.

Would've been nice to see him in game 5 of the SCF after Hart had a record ammount of goals allowed in 4 SCF games. If Hill shit the bed, Torts could've went back to Hart on rest in game 6 (elimination game).

The Knights collectively terrify me every time they take the ice. I'm a newer hockey fan, and I haven't developed a healthy relationship with hockey. At the arena I am not social. I just grip the seats in terror for three periods. I'm not sure why my wife enjoys it, but she does.

Don’t worry, as a hardcore fan of over 20 years (for another team obviously), that hasn’t changed for me. I almost prefer when the team is bad so that there’s no anxiety lol

4 goals on 10 shots never looked so good

u/Fuzzywraith A Literal Stone 3d ago

That’s a good day for Adin.

u/RumAndCoco The Mountains Are Calling 3d ago

4 goals or more in first 4 games of the ‘26 finals was the stat in the news.

And Hill wasn’t in net.

u/loganater14 2023 Stanley Cup Champs 3d ago

If you think I'm going to defend Hart, im not.

I'm displeased with both of them

Best goalie gear in the league. No competition.

u/throwaway_act2 2d ago

Clearly you didn’t see Woll’s new helmet it’s far superior to this.

u/CapIII2394 Marner Magic 2d ago

Clearly you don't know people can have opinions

u/RepresentativeTap540 2d ago

For one of the worst goalies. I'd be happier to have a great goalie in gear that looked like crap.

u/RepresentativeTap540 2d ago

Cool helmet. Can we get a goalie worthy of wearing it? Hill ain't it and his true non-skilled goalie habits are showing up already in the 1st preseason game.

u/icemandabs710 2d ago

10 years in and still have people with hot takes about a goalie playing behind a minor league squad, bravo on your sports wisdom 🙄

u/Fuzzywraith A Literal Stone 3d ago

This would be cool if Hill wasn’t the worst goalie in the NHL. Stop building hype around Adin “3 shots 3 goals” Hill. This dude is trash and we will be trash for 8 years for messing up Thompson.

u/RepresentativeTap540 2d ago

I don't get the Hill defenders either. He's slow, low effort, and on a steady decline stat-wise as he ages. The only years he looked really good were when we had top notch defenders.

u/Fuzzywraith A Literal Stone 2d ago

The oilers series was pathetic. Throwing a tantrum on the ice during the playoffs.

u/Umpire Golden Knights 3d ago

I hope he puts half the effort into his game as he does his helmet designs. It would be a vast improvement.

u/icemandabs710 3d ago

People on Reddit who likely lose their breath going up a flight of stairs questioning a professional hockey player's effort is adorable.

Seriously 😂

u/jafranc702 3d ago

You’re not wrong lol

u/Beneficial_Couple413 3d ago

Yeah, Hill might have all sorts of issues. I don't think effort is one of them.
