Noah Hanifin - Page 2 - NHL News & Rumors

Gets first helper of season Hanifin notched an assist and five shots on goal in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Lightning.

Impact This was Hanifin's first helper of the year, though he's been limited to three games after missing time due to a lower-body injury. The 28-year-old defenseman has resumed a role in the Golden Knights' top four over the last two contests since coming off of injured reserve. He could see some power-play time on the second unit, which boosts his scoring potential, but he doesn't play a particularly physical game for a blueliner.

Removed from IR Hanifin (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.

Impact Hanifin appears poised to return to the lineup against Detroit on Tuesday after missing the last 10 games. He logged 24:00 of ice time, earning three shots on goal and two hits, in Vegas' season-opening 6-5 shootout loss to the Kings on Oct. 8 before the injury.

Won't return Friday Head coach Bruce Cassidy said Thursday that Hanifin (lower body) has resumed skating but won't play Friday against the Avalanche, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

Impact Cassidy said that Hanifin is getting closer to returning, but the defenseman will require at least one more game on the shelf due to his lower-body injury. While a clear timetable for his return isn't yet clear, it seems as though he'll be in the mix to suit up sometime in the first half of November.

Impact Hanifin landed on injured reserve Wednesday and is eligible to be activated whenever he's healthy, but he'll miss at least three more games. Jaycob Megna was called up by the Golden Knights on Wednesday and should provide additional depth on the blue line during the team's road trip.

On injured reserve Hanifin (undisclosed) was put on injured reserve Wednesday, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Impact Hanifin's placement on IR can be retroactive to Oct. 8, which means he can be activated at any time, but it would be surprising for Vegas to make this move unless Hanifin was expected to miss at least one more game. Don't expect Hanifin to play Saturday in Florida, and it would be surprising if he returns in time for Sunday's clash in Tampa Bay.

Hasn't resumed skating Hanifin (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's clash against Calgary.

Suffers undisclosed injury Hanifin (undisclosed) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against San Jose, per SinBin.vegas.

Impact Hanifin had no points, three shots and two hits in 24:00 of ice time during Vegas' 6-5 shootout loss to the Kings in Wednesday's season opener. However, the 28-year-old suffered the injury late in the overtime period. He's a key part of the Golden Knights' blue line, so it would be a big blow if he's out for any significant stretch of time. Ben Hutton is expected to draw into the lineup Thursday due to Hanifin's absence.
