McNabb has been with the Golden Knights since the beginning, averaging four goals, 11 assists, 87 shots, 215 hits and 166 blocked shots per 82 games in four and half seasons with Vegas. McNabb was set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Hill will not be available for Wednesday's game in Washington, so James Reimer will start and Zach Sawchenko will serve as the backup. Hill should be considered questionable heading into the Sharks' back-to-back on Saturday and Sunday.

Mackenzie Blackwood was moved to IR on Wednesday, so Schmid was recalled to pair with Jon Gillies as the Devils' goaltending duo moving forward. Schmid, who was a fifth-round pick in 2018, has been excellent in the AHL, going 9-0-2 with a 1.54 GAA and .948 SV% in 11 games.

With Smith in COVID-19 protocol, Jake Leschyshyn and Jonas Rondbjerg have been promoted to the active roster and one of them will play Monday. Mattias Janmark or Nicolas Roy will likely move up to the Golden Knights' top line.

Stone will come out of the Golden Knights lineup on Thursday after being placed in COVID-19 protocol. Either Brett Howden or Adam Brooks are expected to draw into the lineup to replace Stone.
