Scores against former team Saad scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blues.

Impact Saad's first goal of the season came against his former team. He's picking up the pace in November with three points over six outings this month. The 33-year-old winger has a goal, three assists, 26 shots on net and a plus-4 rating across 17 appearances. He's mainly played on the third line, so there's not much reason to think his offense will dramatically improve throughout the year.

Draws assist in top-line chance Saad notched an assist, four shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Saad picked up his first point of the year after moving to the top line to replace Mark Stone (wrist), who is on injured reserve. The 32-year-old Saad has some scoring upside, but that hasn't been apparent while he started the season in a bottom-six role. He's posted nine shots on net, four blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating across seven appearances. The winger has little chance of generating non-scoring production, so he'll need to score his way onto the fantasy radar.

Re-ups with Vegas Saad (lower body) signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the Golden Knights on Friday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Saad signed with the Golden Knights after his contract with the Blues was terminated in January. It was a good fit for player and team, as the 32-year-old put up 14 points over 29 regular-season games with Vegas after the signing. He'll stick around for another year on a fairly team-friendly deal, and he'll be expected to fill a middle-six role with a chance for power-play time.

Out again Wednesday Saad (lower body) won't play in Game 5 versus the Oilers on Wednesday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

Impact Saad was not at the morning skate and doesn't appear to be particularly close to returning, though the Golden Knights are predictably being quiet about injuries this postseason. The 32-year-old winger will miss his third straight game, and if Vegas loses Wednesday, he'll end the season on the shelf.

Game-time call Wednesday Saad (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Game 5 against Edmonton on Wednesday, per SinBin.vegas.

Impact Saad missed the morning skate, but head coach Bruce Cassidy didn't rule him out for the upcoming tilt. Saad has two assists, two PIM, 13 shots, seven hits and one block in eight playoff appearances this year. If he does play Wednesday, it will likely be in a bottom-six capacity.

Not playing Monday Saad (lower body) is not available for Game 4 in Edmonton on Monday, according to Jesse Granger of The Athletic.

Impact Saad will miss a second straight game while he works his way back from a lower-body injury. His next chance to return to the lineup will be at home in Game 5 on Wednesday.

Impact Saad has contributed two assists, 13 shots on goal and seven hits over eight appearances this postseason. He didn't participate in Saturday's morning skate and will miss at least one game. Pavel Dorofeyev (undisclosed) is poised to replace Saad in Saturday's lineup.

Hands out assist in loss Saad managed an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Wild in Game 2.

Impact Saad has a helper in each of the first two playoff games, and he's earned five points over his last three outings. The winger is seeing time on the second line at even strength, but he doesn't have a power-play role, so it may be tough for him to be consistent on offense. However, he's got enough scoring talent to be an option to fill out a DFS lineup.
