Golden Knights' Mitch Marner: Distributes three helpers
Rotowire
Marner logged three assists, including two on the power play, and fired three shots on net in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
Marner has four multi-point efforts over his last six games. He continues to be a strong source of offense, having gotten on the scoresheet in 15 of 18 contests this season. He's at three goals, 20 helpers, 44 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating while primarily playing in a second-line role.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Nets goal Wednesday
Rotowire
Howden scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
Howden had gone seven games without a point, logging a minus-3 rating and five shots on net in that span. The 28-year-old remains in a second-line role, but his continued lack of power-play time could make his offense a bit inconsistent throughout the year. So far, he's racked up six goals, three assists, 30 shots on net, 25 hits, 11 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 20 appearances.

Golden Knights' Jack Eichel: Goal, assist in Wednesday's win
Rotowire
Eichel scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
Eichel is heating up again with two goals and four helpers during his four-game point streak. His tally Wednesday was his first power-play goal of the season, though he's also supplied nine helpers while Vegas has a man advantage. The 30-year-old center is at nine goals, 17 assists, 50 shots on net and a plus-7 rating across 20 appearances, putting him on track to reach the 90-point mark for a third straight year.

Golden Knights' Victor Olofsson: Racks up three points in win
Rotowire
Olofsson scored a power-play goal on six shots and added two assists in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
Olofsson has four points over three games since he returned from an undisclosed injury. He's also on the top power-play unit. The 31-year-old winger remains an effective depth scorer while adding little else to his production. He's logged five goals, four helpers, 20 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over seven appearances this season.

Golden Knights' Ivan Barbashev: Buries pair of goals in win
Rotowire
Barbashev scored twice in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
Barbashev has earned multiple points in consecutive games. While he's working on the third line now, the drop from first-line duties looks to have sparked his offense after it went stagnant to start November. Barbashev has four goals, 11 assists, 26 shots on net, 40 hits and a plus-10 rating over 20 appearances this season, so he can be effective in fantasy in a variety of roles.

Golden Knights' Carter Hart: Gets little work Wednesday
Rotowire
Hart stopped 14 of 17 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
Utah entered the game banged up, which likely led to the low shot count against Hart. He allowed a goal in each period but was able to get enough help from his teammates to pick up his second win in a row. He's allowed eight goals on 90 shots over his last four outings. Hart is 6-3-2 with a 2.53 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 11 starts this season. He's been alternating starts with Adin Hill lately, and if that pattern holds, Hill would face the red-hot Predators on Friday while Hart would get a more favorable matchup against the Canucks on Sunday.
Golden Knights' Parker Wotherspoon: Activated by Vegas
Rotowire
Wotherspoon (upper body) was activated off injured reserve by the Golden Knights on Wednesday, SinBin.vegas reports.
Wotherspoon dealt with an upper-body injury for nearly a month, but he'll return to action for Wednesday's matchup against the Mammoth. He appeared in six regular-season games prior to his absence, and he was held scoreless with five hits, five blocked shots and two PIM while averaging 18:16 of ice time.

Golden Knights' Carter Hart: First goalie off Wednesday
Rotowire
Hart was the first goalie off during Wednesday's morning skate, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports, indicating that he'll draw the home start against the Mammoth.
Hart has alternated starts with Adin Hill to begin the month, and that trend will continue Wednesday. Across Hart's last four outings, he's gone 1-1-2 with a 2.69 GAA and .883 save percentage. The Mammoth have recorded 3.50 goals per game to start the regular season, which is tied for eighth in the NHL.
Hanifin (undisclosed) is week-to-week, according to SinBin.vegas on Tuesday.
Hanifin didn't participate in Tuesday's practice after suffering an undisclosed injury in Sunday's 4-1 win over Buffalo. He has contributed two goals, four assists, 27 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and six hits in 19 appearances this season. If Parker Wotherspoon (upper body) isn't ready to play against Utah on Wednesday, Vegas will likely recall a defenseman from the minors.

Golden Knights' Ivan Barbashev: Earns pair of assists
Rotowire
Barbashev notched two assists, two hits, two PIM and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Sabres.
Barbashev was listed on the third line Sunday, but he set up both top-line center Jack Eichel and his new regular linemate Tomas Hertl. This came on the heels of a three-game slump for Barbashev, which likely forced the change in the lineup. The 30-year-old winger is versatile enough to play up and down the lineup without sacrificing too much offense. He's produced two goals, 11 assists, 24 shots on net, 39 hits, eight PIM and a plus-9 rating over 19 appearances.

Golden Knights' Jack Eichel: Scores in Sunday's win
Rotowire
Eichel scored a goal on five shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Sabres.
Eichel has a goal and three assists over his last three games. He snapped a four-game goal drought Sunday, which was his longest of the season so far. The star center is up to eight goals, 16 helpers, 49 shots on net and a plus-7 rating through 19 appearances and will continue to thrive on the Golden Knights' top line.

Golden Knights' Mitch Marner: Two points in win Sunday
Rotowire
Marner scored a shorthanded goal on three shots and added an even-strength assist in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Sabres.
Marner opened the scoring with a breakaway goal after intercepting a pass from Tage Thompson during Buffalo's second-period power play. He later set up Tomas Hertl's first goal, reaching 100 points with Vegas faster than any other player in franchise history. The winger's contributions across multiple situations reinforce his excellent fantasy value, particularly given his consistent playmaking and prominent offensive role. He has cracked the scoresheet in 14 of his 17 appearances this season, tallying 20 points (three goals, 17 assists) in that span.

Golden Knights' Tomas Hertl: Scores twice in third period Sunday
Rotowire
Hertl scored two goals on four shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Sabres. He also added four hits.
Hertl restored Vegas' two-goal advantage shortly after Buffalo got on the scoreboard before adding another tally midway through the third period. The veteran center reached nine goals this season and extended his point streak to four games, tallying six points (four goals, two helpers) over that span. His recent finishing form and established role in the Golden Knights' offense continue to provide substantial fantasy value, particularly in goal-heavy formats. He's up to nine goals and 14 points in 19 contests this season.

Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Makes 28 saves in road win
Rotowire
Hill stopped 28 of 29 shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Sabres.
Hill was particularly sharp during the opening period, turning aside all 14 shots he faced while Buffalo controlled much of the play. His only blemish came on Beck Malenstyn's third-period goal, and he finished with a .966 save percentage. The veteran has now won seven of his nine starts this season, going 7-2-0 with a 2.54 GAA and a .903 save percentage. He continues to have fantasy value while sharing Vegas' goaltending responsibilities with Carter Hart.
Golden Knights' Adin Hill: Starting against Sabres
Rotowire
Hill will defend the road net against Buffalo on Sunday, according to Heather Engel of NHL.com.
Hill is coming off a 23-save effort in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Pittsburgh. He has won six of his eight appearances this season, stopping 187 of 209 shots. Buffalo (8-5-3) is tied for 18th in the league this campaign with 3.06 goals per game.

Golden Knights' Lucas Van Vliet: Another big game Saturday
Rotowire
Van Vliet scored twice and added an assist in the University of St. Thomas' 7-4 win over the University of Alaska-Anchorage on Saturday.
Van Vliet was on fire versus Anchorage, earning five goals and two assists over the Tommies' two-game sweep. Through eight contests this season, the 20-year-old has eight goals and three helpers. The Golden Knights prospect should continue to be a leader for St. Thomas' offense this year.
