Vegas Golden Knights netminder Robin Lehner is between the pipes for Game 1 against the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday, per The Athletic's Jesse Granger.
Marc-Andre Fleury played all seven games of Vegas' first-round series versus the Minnesota Wild, posting a 1.71 goals-against average and .931 save percentage.
The switch to Lehner appears to be a coach's decision as Fleury isn't known to be battling any injuries.
Lehner posted a 2.29 goals-against average and .913 save percentage in 19 regular-season contests this campaign. His last outing was on March 10 against the Avalanche.
Vegas rotated its goalies every other game during the regular season when both were healthy. The duo shared the William M. Jennings Trophy for allowing the fewest goals in the league.
