Impact McNabb has already missed three games due to his upper-body injury, but seems no closer to getting back in the lineup.

The Golden Knights will likely need to call up a defenseman from AHL Henderson to provide additional depth -- if McNabb is unavailable, there are currently just five blueliners on Vegas' roster.

Scores game-winner Saturday McNabb scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact McNabb found the back of the net for the first time this season and did it in style, potting a snap shot past Jet Greaves to give the Golden Knights a comeback win. This was McNabb's first goal and second point of the season despite playing every game for Vegas, so his fantasy appeal shouldn't be very high any time soon.

Gets on scoresheet with helper McNabb logged an assist, three shots on goal and four blocked shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers.

Impact This was McNabb's first point of the campaign. The 34-year-old has remained in a top-four role, but he's almost exclusively a defensive presence. His slow start to 2025-26 makes it unlikely that he'll be able to get to the 20-point mark for a third straight season. In addition to his assist, he has nine shots on net, 20 hits, four PIM, a plus-4 rating and an NHL-best 51 blocked shots through 15 appearances.
