Mitch Marner - On baby watch Marner (personal) won't play Thursday versus the Blues.

Impact Marner and his wife are expecting their second child. Marner has stepped away from the team and will miss at least one game, though it's far from a guarantee he'll be back in action in Columbus on Saturday. Alexander Holtz will take Marner's place in the lineup, though Braeden Bowman is likely to pick up extra ice time.

Ville Heinola - Up from AHL Heinola was called up from AHL Henderson on Thursday.

Impact Heinola was summoned from the minors on two other occasions in October, but he hasn't made his NHL season debut yet. However, the 25-year-old has excelled in the minors with a goal and five points in five appearances with Henderson in 2026-27.

Adin Hill - Starting against St. Louis Hill will start Thursday's road game against St. Louis, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Impact Hill has been productive early in the 2026-27 campaign, going 4-0-0 with a 2.20 GAA and .906 save percentage across his four starts to begin the regular season. He'll be between the pipes for the third time in the Golden Knights' last five games Thursday, as he's alternated starts with Carter Hart over the past week.

Parker Wotherspoon - Placed on injured reserve The Golden Knights placed Wotherspoon (upper body) on injured reserve Wednesday, SinBin.vegas reports.

Impact Wotherspoon has been dealing with his upper-body injury for over a week, and he's considered week-to-week. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but it isn't particularly surprising to see him land on injured reserve. Alexander Holtz was recalled by the Golden Knights on Wednesday as part of a corresponding move, while Jeremy Lauzon should continue to see an increased role in Wotherspoon's absence.

Lukas Cormier - Waived Wednesday Cormier (undisclosed) was taken off the injured non-roster list and placed on waivers Wednesday, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Impact Cormier had eight goals, 47 points and 32 PIM in 49 regular-season outings with AHL Henderson in 2025-26. The 24-year-old is expected to be sent to Henderson if he clears waivers. He'll probably spend most, if not all, of what's left of the season in the minors.

Alexander Holtz - Called up from minors Holtz was recalled from AHL Henderson on Wednesday.

Impact Holtz is off to an impressive start in the minors, racking up four goals and four assists in five games for the Silver Knights. Holtz could simply be an emergency depth option ahead of Thursday's clash with the Blues, or his solid start in the minors could see him step into the lineup against St. Louis.

Ivan Barbashev - Pots goal in loss Barbashev scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact This was Barbashev's first goal of the season. The 30-year-old has remained productive in helping linemates Jack Eichel and Mark Stone throughout the campaign. Barbashev is at eight points, 16 shots on net, 20 hits and a plus-8 rating through 11 appearances. He'll retain decent fantasy value as long as he remains on the top line.

Mark Stone - Strikes while shorthanded Stone scored a shorthanded goal on two shots in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact Stone's point streak is up to four games (five goals, three assists). He's been a beast on special teams so far this season, earning six power-play points as well as a pair of shorthanded goals. Overall, the 34-year-old winger has eight goals, seven assists, 22 shots on net, 11 hits, nine PIM and a plus-9 rating across 11 appearances.

Carter Hart - Struggles behind bad defense Hart stopped 15 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact The Golden Knights' usually stout defense came up short of the standard Tuesday. Four of the Lightning's goals were unassisted, with turnovers being a big problem for the Vegas lineup. Hart didn't offer much help, failing to bail out his teammates with a big save when they needed it. He's now 4-3-0 with a 2.87 GAA and an .888 save percentage over seven games this season. While Adin Hill has largely drawn easier matchups, he's undefeated in four starts and could start to eat into Hart's playing time soon -- they've already been alternating for the last five games. The Golden Knights are set for a two-game road trip to close out this week, with stops in St. Louis on Thursday and in Columbus on Saturday.

Impact Marner stretched his point streak to six games (one goal, eight assists). He's earned four of his nine points in that span on the power play. The 29-year-old playmaker is up to 11 points, 23 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through 10 appearances this season. He's as reliable a source of assists as anyone in the league.

Jack Eichel - Keeps rolling in 700th career game Eichel had two assists and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

Impact Eichel was skating in his 700th career game and delivered another multi-point effort, his sixth in 10 contests this year. The 29-year-old crossed the 700-point mark in his career during the season opener, showcasing his effectiveness over a decade-plus of action. In 2026-27, he's racked up five goals, 13 helpers, 28 shots on net and a plus-8 rating.

Brett Howden - Awarded empty-netter Howden scored an empty-net goal, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

Impact Howden was obstructed on his way to an empty net, leading to an awarded goal. He did not record a shot on goal during the contest. He's scored in three straight games and is up to four goals, three assists, 16 shots on net, 10 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 10 appearances. At his best, Howden is an effective agitator with a scoring touch, giving him some appeal as a depth option in fantasy.

Noah Hanifin - Finds twine in win Hanifin scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

Impact Hanifin's offense is coming around -- he's gotten on the scoresheet in three straight contests. The 29-year-old defenseman has seen a slightly smaller role than in previous years, as the Golden Knights have a strong defense and have to spread the minutes around. Hanifin's at four points, 13 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 10 outings.

Rasmus Andersson - Tallies in Saturday's win Andersson scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

Impact Andersson has picked up two goals and two assists over his last four games. The 29-year-old blueliner is picking up the pace on offense after a slow start to the year, and he's firmly in a top-four role with power-play time. On the year, Andersson has produced five points, 21 shots on net, nine blocked shots, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating through 10 contests. He should continue to offer decent totals in points, shots, blocks and PIM.

Shea Theodore - Nets goal in big win Theodore scored a goal and went plus-3 in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

Impact Theodore had started the season well, but he followed it up with a seven-game slump. The 31-year-old defenseman ended his drought with a second-period tally. Theodore has two goals, two helpers, 20 shots on net, 12 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating over 10 appearances -- he's been part of the Golden Knights' early success despite the lack of individual production.
