Won't suit up in Calgary Pietrangelo (undisclosed) will not be available for Tuesday's road contest against the Flames, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
Impact Pietrangelo has missed four consecutive games and seven of the last 10. He'll have one more opportunity to suit up in the regular season in the second half of a back-to-back against the Canucks on Wednesday. Kaedan Korczak will continue to operate in a third-pairing role until Pietrangelo is ready to return to the lineup.

Out with injury Pietrangelo (undisclosed) has an injury that could keep him out for the remainder of the regular season.
Impact Pietrangelo's timeline to return is unclear, but coach Bruce Cassidy wasn't overly concerned. If the 35-year-old defender misses the final three games of the regular season, he could be ready for the beginning of the playoffs. He has produced four goals, 33 points, 123 shots on net and 137 blocked shots across 70 appearances this season.

Impact It will be Pietrangelo's second straight game on the shelf. He has four goals and 33 points in 70 appearances in 2024-25. Pietrangelo is getting closer to returning, according to Webster, so perhaps the 35-year-old defenseman will be available Saturday versus Nashville.

Impact Pietrangelo earned a helper in his third game back from missing four contests due to a lower-body injury. The 35-year-old has slotted right back into a top-four role, though he hasn't been able to reclaim a power-play spot with both Shea Theodore and Noah Hanifin healthy. Pietrangelo is at 33 points through 70 outings in 2024-25, matching his total from 64 games in the 2023-24 regular season. This year, he's added 123 shots on net, 137 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating.

Game-time call for Thursday Pietrangelo (lower body) is expected to be a game-time decision for Thursday's tilt against Winnipeg, according to Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Wednesday.
Impact If Pietrangelo is able to play, then it would be his first game since March 23. He has four goals and 32 points in 67 appearances in 2024-25. Kaedan Korczak might be a healthy scratch if Pietrangelo returns to the lineup.

Will miss next two games Pietrangelo (lower body) is expected to miss the final two games of Vegas' road trip, the Golden Knights announced Friday.
Impact That rules Pietrangelo out for Friday's tilt in Chicago and Saturday's clash in Nashville. He's already missed Tuesday's 5-1 win over Minnesota. He has four goals, 32 points, 119 shots, 39 hits and 131 blocks in 67 outings in 2024-25. Kaedan Korczak is likely to remain in the lineup while Pietrangelo is unavailable.

Questionable for rest of trip Pietrangelo (lower body) may not playing during the Golden Knights' road trip, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Impact Pietrangelo's injury is not believed to be long term, but there's some doubt about his availability for the next two games at a minimum. Vegas is at Chicago on Friday and at Nashville on Saturday. Fantasy managers should have a backup plan in place in the seemingly likely event Pietrangelo is sidelined for one or both of those games.

Unavailable versus Wild Pietrangelo (lower body) won't play Tuesday versus the Wild.
Impact Pietrangelo logged 25:03 of ice time Sunday versus the Lightning, earning two assists in a 4-2 win. The 35-year-old's absence will be offset by Shea Theodore's return from an arm injury, though this should also allow Kaedan Korczak to remain in the lineup. Pietrangelo's next chance to play is Friday in Chicago, which is the first game of a back-to-back set.

Registers two helpers Sunday Pietrangelo notched two assists in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Lightning.
Impact Pietrangelo has played well lately with a goal and five assists over his last six contests. The defenseman helped out on tallies by Nicolas Roy (on the power play) and Nicolas Hague in Sunday's win. For the season, Pietrangelo is up to 32 points (two on the power play), 119 shots on net, 131 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating across 67 appearances. He's steady defensively and chips in enough offense from a top-four role to be a fine fantasy blueliner.
