Adin Hill (born May 11, 1996) is a Canadian professionalice hockeygoaltender for theVegas Golden Knights of theNational Hockey League (NHL). Hill was selected by theArizona Coyotes, 76th overall, in the2015 NHL Entry Draft. He has also played with theSan Jose Sharks. As their starting goaltender, Hill won theStanley Cup with the Golden Knights in2023.
Hill played bantam junior hockey with the Calgary Bisons before later developing at the midget level with theCalgary Buffaloes in theAlberta Midget Hockey League. He spent the duration of the2013–14 season with theCalgary Canucks in theAlberta Junior Hockey League before ending the season playing four games of major junior hockey with thePortland Winterhawks of theWestern Hockey League.
He spent the entirety of the2014–15 season with the Winterhawks, where he had a 31–11–1 record and a league-best .921 save percentage. At season's end, he was selected in the third round, 76th overall, by theArizona Coyotes in the2015 NHL Entry Draft.
On April 6, 2016, the Coyotes signed Hill to a three-year, entry-level contract.[1] He played for two of the Coyotes' affiliates during the2016–17 season (theTucson Roadrunners of theAmerican Hockey League (AHL) and theRapid City Rush of theECHL).
Hill began the2017–18 season with the Roadrunners. However, he was recalled by the Coyotes on October 16, 2017.[2] On October 17, he made his NHL debut, stopping 31 shots in a 3–1 loss to theDallas Stars. The debut also made him the first goaltender selected in the 2015 draft to appear in an NHL game.[3][4] On March 13, 2018, Hill recorded his first career win in a 4–3shootout victory over theLos Angeles Kings.[5] He finished the season with four appearances for the club.
Hill once again began the2018–19 season with the Roadrunners. He was recalled by the Coyotes on November 24.[6] Hill was named the NHLSecond Star of the week for the week of December 3 after posting a 3–0–0 record.[7]
On August 3, 2019, the Coyotes re-signed Hill to a one-year, two-way contract extension.[8] He made 13 appearances during the2019–20 season, going 2–4–3.
On September 15, 2020, Hill signed a one-year extension with the Coyotes.[9] In the pandemic-delayed2020–21 season, with injuries to veteran netmindersDarcy Kuemper andAntti Raanta, Hill appeared in 19 games for Arizona, earning a 9–9–1 record with a .913 save percentage (SV%) and 2.74 goals-against average (GAA) along with two shutouts. Hill co-led Arizona goaltenders in shutouts and led in save percentage and set a career-high in games played.[10]
On July 17, 2021, due to expansion draft considerations, Hill was traded by the Coyotes, along with a seventh-round pick to the Sharks in exchange forJosef Kořenář and a second-round pick in the2022 NHL Entry Draft.[11] He signed a two-year contract with the Sharks on August 4, 2021.[12] On November 9, 2021, he recorded a two-assist game in a 4–1 win over theCalgary Flames.[13]
Hill was traded to theVegas Golden Knights on August 29, 2022, in exchange for a fourth-round pick in2024.[14] The Golden Knights initially acquired Hill to serve as a backup toLogan Thompson, after the team's established starting goaltenderRobin Lehner would miss the entire season and backupLaurent Brossoit required hip surgery that would see him miss the opening months of the2022–23 season.[15] The team's goaltending situation continued to be complicated by injuries over the course of the season, with Thompson departing the lineup as a result, and Hill himself also missing time toward the end of the season, while Brossoit returned to the roster and the Golden Knights also acquired formerLos Angeles Kings starterJonathan Quick for additional depth at the position.[16][17] Hill finished the regular season with a 16–7–1 record and a .915 save percentage.[18]
The Golden Knights entered the2023 Stanley Cup playoffs as the top seed in the Western Conference, with Brossoit the team's starting goaltender and Hill as backup. However, in Game 3 of the Knights' second round series against theEdmonton Oilers, Brossoit injured himself while making a save, necessitating Hill taking over the net.[19] He proceeded to lead the team to victory over the Oilers, reaching the Western Conference Final against theDallas Stars. Hill allowed only twelve goals in the six-game series against Dallas, including two shutouts.[15][20] The Golden Knights reached the2023 Stanley Cup Finals against theFlorida Panthers, with Hill drawing notice for a paddle save in the series opener that was dubbed "the save of the playoffs" by theAssociated Press.[21] The Golden Knights defeated the Panthers in five games, winning theStanley Cup, with Hill observing "you dream about it every day growing up as a child."[22] Hill finished third in voting for theConn Smythe Trophy as playoffMVP, behind teammatesJonathan Marchessault andJack Eichel.[23]
Following the season, Hill elected to avoid free agency and signed a two-year, $9.8 million extension to stay with the Golden Knights.[24] Hill signed a further six-year extension with Vegas on March 14, 2025, keeping him in Vegas through the 2030–31 season.[25]
