Top Zach Whitecloud News

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Won't face Oilers

    Whitecloud (upper body) will not be in action versus Edmonton on Tuesday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Whitecloud will be sidelined for his fifth consecutive contest due to his lingering upper-body problem. Vegas isn't particularly forthcoming when it comes to injuries, but the fact that the blueliner still isn't practicing should be an indication he'll also miss out versus the Ducks on Wednesday. If the Knights need a roster spot, they could put Whitecloud on injured reserve without impacting his return day since he's already been sidelined for over a week.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Won't return Saturday

    Whitecloud (upper body) will miss Saturday's tilt against Utah, according to Jesse Granger of The Athletic.

    Whitecloud will miss his fourth straight game. He has a goal and one assist through 21 outings in 2024-25. His next chance to play will come Tuesday versus Edmonton.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Remains out Friday

    Whitecloud (upper body) is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Jets, Ryan Wallis of Fox Sports Las Vegas reports.

    Whitecloud will miss his third straight game, and it's unlikely he'll be ready for the second half of a back-to-back Saturday when the Golden Knights host Utah. The 28-year-old defenseman's status has not been updated since he exited last Saturday's game versus the Canadiens.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Sitting out Wednesday

    Whitecloud (upper body) won't play Wednesday versus the Avalanche, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

    Whitecloud is set to miss his second consecutive game after he got hurt in Montreal on Saturday. Kaedan Korczak remains in the lineup with Whitecloud unavailable. It's unclear if Whitecloud will be ready to return during a back-to-back with games Friday versus the Jets and Saturday against Utah.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Out Monday

    Whitecloud is unavailable for Monday's game against Philadelphia due to an upper-body injury, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

    Whitecloud has a goal, two points, 33 hits and 40 blocked shots in 21 appearances with Vegas in 2024-25. Robert Hagg, who was recalled from AHL Henderson on Monday, is projected to draw into the lineup due to Whitecloud's absence. The 27-year-old Whitecloud is day-to-day, so he might still be able to return for Wednesday's contest in Colorado.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Exits late in contest

    Whitecloud (undisclosed) left Saturday's game versus the Canadiens in the third period and didn't return, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

    There was no additional information regarding Whitecloud's injury after the contest. The defenseman had one assist, three hits and two blocked shots prior to the injury. Vegas is also missing Alex Pietrangelo (upper body), whose status is unknown for the team's road trip, and Ben Hutton (upper body), who is on long-term injured reserve until at least mid-December. If Whitecloud's injury is serious, the Golden Knights will need to recall a defenseman prior to Monday's game versus the Flyers.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Steady spot in lineup

    Whitecloud was held off the scoresheet for the 17th straight game in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals.

    Whitecloud has been steady in a bottom-four role, but he hasn't done anything on offense since he scored Opening Night. The 27-year-old blueliner has added 28 hits, 31 blocked shots, 14 shots on net, 10 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 18 appearances. Whitecloud has never earned a 20-point campaign and will face an uphill battle to approach that mark this year, so he's not much of an option in fantasy.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Deposits goal in season-opening win

    Whitecloud scored a goal and added two hits in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Avalanche.

    Whitecloud's goal came in the second period while he was on the ice alongside the top line. The defenseman has been a regular for the Golden Knights over the last four years, but he has topped 60 games just once and has a career high of 19 points in a single season. As such, his fantasy value is limited to deeper formats that count hits and blocked shots, as he is unlikely to score enough in a third-pairing role to draw widespread appeal.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Bags apple Sunday

    Whitecloud notched an assist and two hits in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Avalanche.

    Whitecloud has six helpers over his last nine contests. The third-pairing defenseman remains in a limited role, but he's chipping in solid offense. For the season, he's at 14 points, 50 shots on net, 123 hits, 102 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-3 rating through a 59 appearances. He'll set a career high in games played if he suits up for one of the Golden Knights' last two contests.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Posts assist in Friday's win

    Whitecloud managed an assist, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-3 rating in Friday's 7-2 win over the Wild.

    Whitecloud hasn't been an everyday player lately, but he has five helpers over his last eight contests. The 27-year-old plays on the third pairing when he is in the lineup. He's produced 13 points, 49 shots on net, 123 hits, 102 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 58 outings overall. He needs to play in two of the Golden Knights' last three games to set a new career high for appearances.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Chips in with assist

    Whitecloud logged an assist, three hits and two blocked shots in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Coyotes.

    Whitecloud was scratched for the previous two games, but he drew in for Alex Pietrangelo (illness) in this contest. The 27-year-old Whitecloud has four assists over his last five outings, giving him 12 points, 45 shots on net, 116 hits, 96 blocked shots, 30 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 55 appearances. He continues to see third-pairing usage when he plays.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Earns helper in win

    Whitecloud produced an assist, five hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Jets.

    Whitecloud has three helpers over four games since he was scratched for three contests. The 27-year-old has responded well to that coaching decision, and he continues to hold a spot in the lineup over Alec Martinez while Alex Pietrangelo (illness) is out. Whitecloud is up to 11 points, 44 shots on net, 30 PIM, 113 hits and 94 blocked shots through 54 appearances this season.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Plucks apple Monday

    Whitecloud notched an assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blues.

    Whitecloud has a helper in each of the last two games since he returned from a three-game stint as a healthy scratch. The 27-year-old's recent offense shouldn't be seen as a sign of things to come, as he remains in a third-pairing role. He's at 10 points, 43 shots on net, 106 hits, 90 blocked shots, 30 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 52 appearances on the year.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Garners assist in win

    Whitecloud produced an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

    Whitecloud set up Jack Eichel's go-ahead tally in the second period. Whitecloud returned to the lineup Saturday after a three-game stint as a healthy scratch, following a stretch in which he was limited to three assists over 15 games. The 27-year-old previously appeared to be a lock for the lineup, but the Golden Knights' beefed-up defense has created competition for third-pairing jobs. Whitecloud is at nine points, 105 hits, 90 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 51 contests overall, so his status in the lineup is of little concern for fantasy purposes.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Ready to rock

    Whitecloud (undisclosed) is expected to play Tuesday versus the Kraken.

    Whitecloud will play on the third pairing after leaving Saturday's game versus the Red Wings late in the third period. The 27-year-old defenseman won't have to miss any additional time, though his limited role makes him a poor option for fantasy managers.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Sustains injury Saturday

    Whitecloud (undisclosed) didn't finish Saturday's contest versus the Red Wings, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Sun reports.

    Whitecloud was injured in the third period. If he can't play Tuesday versus the Kraken, Ben Hutton would likely draw into the lineup. Whitecloud has eight points over 48 appearances in a third-pairing role this season.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Collects assist Thursday

    Whitecloud registered an assist and two blocked shots in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Bruins.

    Whitecloud snapped a four-game slump with the helper. He remains in a limited role on the third pairing, though the Golden Knights are not known for changing up their blue-line group when at full health. Still, Whitecloud will need to do his job effectively to avoid losing his spot to Daniil Miromanov. Whitecloud has eight points, 34 shots on net, 97 hits, 79 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 44 appearances.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Notches assist in win

    Whitecloud posted an assist and two blocked shots in Monday's 4-0 win over the Sharks.

    Whitecloud has two helpers over his last three games following a 21-game slump. The 27-year-old could be in risk of losing his near-everyday spot in the lineup once Shea Theodore (upper body), who was activated from long-term injured reserve and scratched Monday, makes his return. Whitecloud has just seven points, 33 shots on net, 79 hits, 68 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 39 appearances this season.

  • Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Grabs helper in return

    Whitecloud notched an assist and blocked two shots in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Wild.

    Whitecloud was back in the lineup after being scratched Thursday versus the Coyotes and overcoming an illness over the weekend. With Kaedan Korczak back at AHL Henderson, there's room for both Whitecloud and Daniil Miromanov in the Golden Knights' lineup. Whitecloud's assist Monday snapped a 21-game point drought, giving him six points, 71 hits, 60 blocked shots, 32 shots on net and 22 PIM through 37 outings this season. Ben Hutton (upper body) was activated prior to Monday's game, but he'll likely be the seventh defenseman going forward.
