Top Golden Knights News

  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Removed from LTIR

    Howden (lower body) was activated from long-term injured reserve Sunday, per the NHL media site.

    As expected, Howden will return to the lineup against Edmonton on Sunday after missing the last 20 games. He has contributed nine goals, 15 points, 46 shots on net and 66 hits across 39 appearances this season.

  • Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Sunday starter

    Hill was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate and will start Sunday's game against the Oilers, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

    Since coming out of the Olympic break, Hill and Akira Schmid have alternated starts. Schmid got the start Friday against the Wild, so it's Hill's turn Sunday against the Oilers. The 29-year-old is 6-4-3 on the season with a 3.42 GAA and an .860 save percentage. He will look to snap a streak of three straight starts allowing at least three goals against an Oilers team that has scored at least that many in six straight games.

  • Golden Knights' Lucas Van Vliet: Two goals in UST win

    Van Vliet scored twice in the University of St. Thomas' 5-2 win over Lake Superior State University on Saturday.

    Van Vliet is putting the finishing touches on a strong first season in the NCAA. He has earned 13 goals and 34 points over 35 appearances for the Tommies. The 2024 seventh-round pick of the Golden Knights is third on the team in points and is looking to help his team through the CCHA Mason Cup Playoffs.

  • Golden Knights' Mitch Marner: Pots goal in loss

    Marner scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Wild.

    Marner has scored in consecutive contests and has five points over as many games since his return from the Olympics. The 28-year-old forward is still filling in as a center on the second line, but the Golden Knights' trade for Nic Dowd should help take some pressure off Marner at the faceoff dot. For the season, Marner has 18 goals, 63 points, 121 shots on net and a plus-14 rating through 62 appearances.

  • Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Crosses 30-goal, 50-point marks

    Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an assist in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Wild.

    Dorofeyev's tally gave him 30 goals on the year, making him the first Golden Knight to reach that mark in consecutive seasons. It was also his 50th point, and he added his 51st with a helper to set up Mitch Marner's tally. Dorofeyev has added 173 shots on net and a minus-3 rating over 63 appearances this season. He hasn't slowed down yet either, earning six goals and five assists over his last nine outings.

  • Golden Knights' Akira Schmid: Can't stop Wild

    Schmid allowed four goals on 24 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Wild.

    Schmid took his third straight regulation loss, and he's allowed 10 goals on 82 shots in those contests. The 25-year-old netminder is now at a 16-9-6 record with a 2.61 GAA and an .893 save percentage over 32 appearances. Adin Hill hasn't exactly inspired much confidence lately either, so the Golden Knights may opt to alternate their goalies until one gets hot. Schmid still has a good chance of racking up wins on a strong team, but his overall performance is risky for fantasy.

  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Set to return Sunday

    Howden (lower body) will be activated from long-term injured reserve prior to Sunday's game versus the Oilers, per SinBin.vegas.

    Howden will miss his 20th consecutive game Friday, but that looks to be the end of his absence. The 27-year-old will be a bottom-six option upon his return Sunday. He will need to be activated from long-term injured reserve to officially make his return.

  • Golden Knights' William Karlsson: Won't be ready to start playoffs

    Karlsson (lower body) will need the Golden Knights to make a run in the playoffs to get back into the lineup, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports Friday.

    The Golden Knights won't put Karlsson on season-ending long-term injured reserve, as there's still a chance he comes back. However, that won't happen in the regular season, and it's unlikely he'll get back in the first round of the playoffs. Once healthy, he may be limited to a bottom-six role given his lengthy layoff and the intensity of the postseason.

  • Golden Knights' Akira Schmid: First off ice

    Schmid was the first goaltender off the ice at morning skate, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports, indicating he will patrol the home crease versus Minnesota on Friday.

    Schmid is 1-3-1 in his last five starts, giving up 14 goals on 129 shots (.891 save percentage). Overall, the 25-year-old netminder is 16-8-6 with a 2.56 GAA and an .895 save percentage across 31 appearances this season. The Wild are tied for 10th in NHL scoring, generating 3.31 goals per game in 2025-26.

  • Golden Knights' Cole Reinhardt: Placed on waivers

    Reinhardt was placed on waivers by the Golden Knights on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Reinhardt has appeared in 44 games for Vegas this year, recording three goals, four assists, 84 hits and 19 PIM while averaging 9:47 of ice time. The 26-year-old should report to AHL Henderson if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

  • Golden Knights' Alexander Holtz: Placed on waivers

    Holtz (upper body) was put on waivers by Vegas on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Holtz has missed the last two games due to his upper-body injury. He has three goals and six assists in 28 games. The Golden Knights picked up Nic Dowd from Washington earlier Thursday, so Holtz could have trouble earning a roster spot with the Golden Knights down the stretch.

  • Golden Knights' Ivan Barbashev: Starts comeback

    Barbashev scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Red Wings.

    Barbashev's tally at 11:37 of the third period set the Golden Knights on the comeback trail, cutting the deficit to 3-2. The 30-year-old has three goals over five games since the Olympic break and remains firmly in a top-line role. He's at 19 goals, 44 points, 97 shots on net, 95 hits and a plus-11 rating over 62 appearances. He's a good player to have in fantasy since he can help in a lot of areas without hurting a roster anywhere.

  • Golden Knights' Reilly Smith: Scores early Wednesday

    Smith scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Red Wings.

    Smith has two goals and two assists over five games since the Olympic break. He's mostly worked in a second-line spot in that stretch, though he was limited to 9:12 of ice time Wednesday, so it's possible he's dealing with something, though nothing has been revealed by the team. The winger has 11 goals, 20 points, 72 shots on net and a minus-9 rating over 58 appearances this season.

  • Golden Knights' Nic Dowd: Dealt to Sin City

    Dowd was traded to Vegas from Washington on Thursday in exchange for Jesper Vikman, a 2027 third-round pick and a 2029 second-round selection.

    The Golden Knights acquired a veteran center who should see third-line minutes. Dowd had four goals, 12 assists and 113 hits across 55 games with Washington. He takes plenty of faceoffs, winning 373 of 766 draws with the Capitals in 2025-26. To make room on the roster, the Golden Knights placed Mark Stone (upper body) on injured reserve.

  • Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Placed on injured reserve

    Stone (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Stone suffered an upper-body injury during Sunday's game against the Penguins and had already missed two matchups as a result. While it's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, his placement on injured reserve indicates that he'll be unavailable for at least a week in total. Cole Reinhardt should continue to see playing time in Stone's absence.

  • Golden Knights' Rasmus Andersson: Two helpers in OT win

    Andersson notched two assists, one on the power play, in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Red Wings.

    With the Golden Knights down 3-1 with less than nine minutes left in the third period, Andersson helped set up an Ivan Barbashev tally that sparked a rally, before also having a hand in Tomas Hertl's OT winner. Andersson snapped a five-game point drought with the performance, and it was the first time in 13 contests for Vegas that he's recorded multiple points. Since the trade that brought him over from Calgary, the 29-year-old blueliner has one goal and six points, although he's earned his keep with 28 blocked shots.

  • Golden Knights' Tomas Hertl: Two points including OT winner

    Hertl scored the overtime winner on the power play and added an even-strength assist in Wednesday's 4-3 victory over Detroit.

    After having a hand in Mitch Marner's game-tying tally late in the third period, Marner returned the favor in OT, finding Hertl in space in front of Cam Talbot and giving the veteran room to work. It was Hertl's fourth GWG of the season, his best total in that category since 2021-22, and his 23 power-play points (13 goals, 10 assists) has tied the career high he set last season.
