Rondbjerg has been recalled from Henderson (AHL) and is expected to play Saturday vs. Pittsburgh.

Rondbjerg had four goals, 10 assists, eight PIMs and a -7 plus/minus in 25 games played with Henderson (AHL) but has earned another call up to Vegas Friday and is expected to draw into the lineup Saturday vs. Pittsburgh. The 24-year-old has appeared in nine games with the Golden Knights this season and has three points, 11 SOG, and a +3 plus/minus.

Eichel (knee) is expected to miss 4-6 weeks after undergoing a procedure Thursday.

Eichel has been out for a week since leaving the Golden Knights' game on January 11th with a knee injury and is expected to miss a further 4-6 weeks after undergoing a procedure Thursday. The 27-year-old finds himself injured again and has only once played in more than 68 games in a season across his nine year career. He currently has 19 goals, 25 assists, 173 SOG, 10 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 42 games prior to his injury.

Eichel is out week-to-week after undergoing successful lower-body surgery.

Eichel did not play the Golden Knights' last game due to a lower-body injury and, after being placed on injured reserve, underwent surgery that will keep him sidelined week-to-week. Before his injury, Eichel had four points (3G / 1A) and 13 shots in his last three games. Chandler Stephenson will likely be elevated to the top line and see increased offensive deployment during Eichel's absence.

Eichel (undisclosed) has been placed on injured reserve.

Eichel missed Saturday's game against the Flames due to the undisclosed injury and has now been placed on injured reserve. Eichel's absence leaves a major void in the Golden Knights' attack, as he's racked up 19 goals and 25 assists in 42 games this season. Eichel's move to the injured reserve means he'll be sidelined until next Saturday's game against the Penguins, at the earliest.

Samsonov will start against the Red Wings on Sunday.

Samsonov will get an opportunity to get his woeful season back on track on Sunday as he will get the nod against the Red Wings, making his first appearance since December 29th. Samsonov gave up six goals on just 21 shots in that game as the Leafs fell in overtime to the Blue Jackets, marking a fourth-straight loss for Samsonov. His record on the season sits at 5-2-6 to go along with a dreadful .862 SV% and 3.94 GAA. Despite his struggles, he's got a great chance of picking up his first win in over a month, with the Maple Leafs being -210 favourites over the Red Wings on Sunday.

Smith (upper body) will be out "longer-term" according to Mike Sullivan.

Smith exited Thursday's game against the Vancouver Canucks in the first period with an upper-body injury after playing only 3:08 time-on-ice. Smith has gone without a point in six straight games, his second pointless skid of six games or more and is expected to be out of the lineup for an extended period.

Saville has been reassigned to the Henderson Silver Knights (AHL).

After being recalled from Henderson (AHL) on Thursday, Saville backed up Logan Thompson. Jiri Patera took the night off after starting their previous game in Colorado and will likely return to backup duties in their next game unless Adin Hill is cleared to play. Saville has a .914 SV% and a 4-3-1 record with the Henderson Silver Knights this season.

Saville will serve as Vegas' backup for Thursday night's game in Boston.

After being recalled from Henderson (AHL) earlier today, Saville will back-up Logan Thompson on Thursday. Jiri Patera will take the night off after starting last night's game in Colorado. Saville has a .914 SV% and a 4-3-1 record with the Henderson Silver Knights this season.

Isaiah Saville
The Golden Knights recalled Saville from Henderson (AHL) on Thursday.

Saville's recall casts some doubt on the status of both Logan Thompson (illness) and Adin Hill (undisclosed) for Thursday's game against the Bruins. Saville could very well get the start on Thursday if both are unable to go, considering Jiri Patera got the nod in Wednesday's 3-0 defeat in Colorado. Saville has a .914 SV% and a 4-3-1 record with the Henderson Silver Knights this season.

Isaiah Saville
Hill (undisclosed) will be unavailable for Wednesday's game in Colorado.

After being confirmed to start earlier in the day, Hill was a surprise late scratch for Wednesday's game in Colorado, as it appears he's still not ready to return from his undisclosed injury. His next chance to return to the crease will be tomorrow night when the Golden Knights host the Bruins.

Adin Hill
Korczak (lower body) has been activated from the Injured Reserve and assigned to Henderson (AHL).

Korczak has not played since December 10th due to a lower-body injury and has been reassigned to the Henderson Silver Knights, where he has three points (0G / 3A) in five games this season. After re-acclimating himself to game speed in the AHL, he will likely find himself with the Golden Knights before long.
