Howden has missed the last eight games with an upper-body injury but, after returning to practice on Monday, is expected to draw back into the Golden Knights lineup on Tuesday against the Seattle Kraken. In 54 games this season, Howden has 13 points (5G / 8A), 56 shots, and 63 hits.

Dorofeyev has been out since January 26th due to an upper-body injury but has been activated from Injured Reserve and is expected to return on Saturday. The 23-year-old left-winger will be a welcome addition to the injured Golden Knights lineup, as he had seven goals, 14 points, 63 SOG, four PIMs and a +5 plus/minus through 29 games played.

Stone has been on Long-Term Injured Reserve since February 20th and has confirmed Friday that he will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 regular season due to a lacerated spleen. The 31-year-old was having an excellent season prior to his injury, with 16 goals, 53 points, 117 SOG, and 22 SOG through 56 GP.

Morelli was the odd man out of the Golden Knights' roster after Friday's trade deadline deals and was reassigned to Henderson (AHL). The 28-year-old left-winger impressed during his first, but limited appearance with the Golden Knights with three goals, four points, nine SOG and a -3 plus/minus in nine games played.

The most surprising deal on Friday was announced minutes before the trade deadline, sending Hertl from the San Jose Sharks to the Golden Knights. Hertl has six years remaining on a $8.1375 million AAV, which the Sharks will retain 17 percent of for the remainder of the contract. Hertl is currently sidelined with a lower-body injury after undergoing a procedure in his left knee at the beginning of February but is expected to return before the end of the season. The talented Czech forward has 34 points (15G / 19A) while averaging 20:54 time-on-ice through 48 games this season.

The Golden Knights will turn to Hill for the fourth time in the last five games. Hill has struggled lately, losing six of his last seven games and allowing three or more goals six times. In his last outing, he allowed five goals on 32 shots (.844 SV%) in a 6-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Golden Knights enter action as -113 home favourites in a divisional tilt against the Vancouver Canucks

The Golden Knights gave up a conditional 2025 first-round pick, a conditional third-round pick, a 2024 fifth-round pick and Daniil Miromanov to acquire Hanifin on Wednesday. The Flames retained 50 percent of Hanifin's contract and the Flyers retained 25 percent as a third-party broker. At 25 percent, Hanifin will carry a $1.2375M AAV cap-hit. The 27-year-old defenseman heads to Vegas with 11 goals and 24 assists (35 points) in 61 games this season.

Olofsson will fill the void left up front by the departure of Casey Mittelstadt. Olofsson has four goals and eight assists in 35 games this season.

Samsonov did not play in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Boston Bruins but will return to the crease on Wednesday night. The 27-year-old Samsonov has started three of the last five games for the Maple Leafs (2-1-0) and saved 32 of 35 shots (.914 SV%) in his last outing, a 4-3 victory over the New York Rangers. The Maple Leafs enter action on Wednesday as -175 home favourites against a Buffalo Sabres club that annihilated them 9-3 on December 21st.

Nico Daws has allowed eight goals on his last 27 shots (.704 SV%), prompting the Devils and their new coaching staff to turn to Schmid between the pipes on Tuesday. Schmid entered the crease in relief in each of the last two games and saved all 18 shots he faced. That said, with Schmid struggling as a whole on the season, the Devils enter action as +109 home underdogs against a red-hot Florida Panthers club riding a five-game winning streak, including a 4-2 victory over the New York Rangers last night.

Hill did not play on Saturday, a 7-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres, for a struggling Golden Knights squad, but will start on Monday night. Hill allowed five goals on 32 shots (.844 SV%) in his last outing, a 5-4 loss to the Boston Bruins, and has allowed three or more goals in five of his last six contests (1-5-0). That said, the Golden Knights enter action as -185 road favourites against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Eichel has been out for six weeks since leaving the Golden Knights' game on January 11th with a knee injury and appears to be on cue to return from surgery at the late end of his four-to-six-week prognosis after being activated from Injured Reserve on Monday. He had 19 goals, 25 assists, 173 SOG, 10 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 42 games before his injury. He will be a welcomed addition to a Golden Knights team without Mark Stone indefinitely due to an upper-body injury.
