Knight has started 19 games for the Panthers as backup to starter Sergei Bobrovsky. He has gone 10-8-1 with a pair of shutouts in those starts while recording a .906 save percentage and 2.49 goals against average.

The Florida Panthers needed a little spark coming into Saturday after winning four of their past 10 games. One would have thought it would be on the offensive side of the ice to do it, but no, it was their goalie.

Knight will protect the home net against the Islanders on Sunday, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site. Knight will get the second half of Florida's back-to-back after Sergei Bobrovsky played in Saturday's 5-1 win over Chicago.
