Deposits goal in season-opening win Whitecloud scored a goal and added two hits in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Whitecloud's goal came in the second period while he was on the ice alongside the top line. The defenseman has been a regular for the Golden Knights over the last four years, but he has topped 60 games just once and has a career high of 19 points in a single season. As such, his fantasy value is limited to deeper formats that count hits and blocked shots, as he is unlikely to score enough in a third-pairing role to draw widespread appeal.

Impact Whitecloud snapped a four-game slump with the helper.

Whitecloud's assist Monday snapped a 21-game point drought, giving him six points, 71 hits, 60 blocked shots, 32 shots on net and 22 PIM through 37 outings this season. Ben Hutton (upper body) was activated prior to Monday's game, but he'll likely be the seventh defenseman going forward.

And he has three points, including two goals, in his last two games. Short term, Whitecloud could help with a touch of scoring to go with his typical brute strength measures (hits and blocked shots).
