Bean replaces Pachal on the third defense pair. … Forward Matvei Gridin was sent to Calgary of the American Hockey League on Friday. ... The Golden Knights held an optional morning skate Saturday … Hill will start after Schmid allowed five goals on 24 shots in a 6-5 win against the Boston Bruins on Thursday. ... Howden, a center, will miss his third straight game and Hanifin, a defenseman, will miss his fifth in a row; each is day to day.
