Placed on injured reserve Schwindt (lower body) was put on injured reserve Thursday, per the NHL media site.

Deemed week-to-week Schwindt (lower body) is considered week-to-week, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports Tuesday.

Impact Schwindt sat out Monday's 5-4 shootout loss to St. Louis after being injured in Saturday's 5-3 loss to Chicago. It's unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. He has posted seven assists, 30 shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and 36 hits in 38 appearances this season. Due to Schwindt's absence, Alexander Holtz will likely play against the Blues on Thursday.

Unavailable Monday Schwindt (lower body) won't play against St. Louis on Monday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Impact Schwindt will miss at least one game after being injured in Saturday's 5-3 loss to Chicago. He has earned seven assists, 30 shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and 36 hits in 38 appearances this season. Alexander Holtz will replace Schwindt in Monday's lineup.

Sustains lower-body injury Schwindt (lower body) will not finish Saturday's game versus the Blackhawks, Ryan Wallis of Fox Sports Las Vegas reports.

Impact Schwindt was laboring on the bench at one point in the first period before retreating to the locker room, and he did not return. The 23-year-old has gone 10 games without a point while filling a bottom-six role, so his potential absence is unlikely to impact most fantasy managers. Alexander Holtz would be the top option to take Schwindt's spot in the lineup, though Vegas could also call up a forward for depth purposes.

Generates helper Friday Schwindt logged an assist in Friday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

Impact Schwindt continues to serve as an injury fill-in, playing fourth-line minutes in the absences of Ivan Barbashev (upper body) and Nicolas Roy (upper body). The helper was Schwindt's first point since Nov. 23, a span of nine contests that he failed to get on the scoresheet. The 23-year-old forward has seven helpers, 22 shots on net, 17 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 28 outings this season.

In part-time role Schwindt has played in five of nine games in December.

Impact Schwindt was scratched for four games in a row in the middle of the month. Injuries to Ivan Barbashev (upper body) and Nicolas Roy (upper body) have opened up a spot in the lineup for Schwindt again, but he hasn't done much with it. The 23-year-old is in the midst of a nine-game point drought, and he has just six assists with 21 shots on net, 16 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 27 contests in a fourth-line role this season.

Hands out helper Saturday Schwindt posted an assist in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact The fourth-liner helped out on Tanner Pearson's goal midway through the second period. Schwindt has been a fourth-line fixture for the Golden Knights in November, racking up three assists over 10 outings this month. He's up to six helpers, 14 shots on net, 14 hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating while averaging 9:49 of ice time across 18 appearances this season.

Sends assist in win Schwindt posted an assist and three hits in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Schwindt helped out on a Nicolas Roy tally in the first period. The helper ended a four-game slump for Schwindt, who has been confined to a fourth-line role this season. He has played in a majority of the games so far, earning four assists, 10 shots on net, nine hits, nine blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 13 appearances. He likely won't be pressured for playing time until both of Mark Stone (lower body) and Victor Olofsson (lower body) are ready to return to the lineup.

Earns two helpers in win Schwindt notched two assists and went plus-3 in Monday's 5-0 win over the Flames.

Impact The Golden Knights went with a new look on the fourth line, as Schwindt played alongside Nicolas Roy and Keegan Kolesar. The trio combined for three goals and eight points, all of which came in a dominant third period that extinguished any chance of a Flames comeback. Through eight outings, Schwindt has put up three assists, seven shots on net, eight blocked shots, five hits and a plus-4 rating. He's not guaranteed to be in the lineup all the time, but a performance like the one he had Monday should earn him some favor over Brendan Brisson in the short term. Schwindt has topped 10 minutes of ice time just once this season.

Picks up first career assist Schwindt registered an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 4-3 win over the Blues.

Impact Schwindt was claimed off waivers from Calgary just before the season started, and he's stuck around on the NHL roster. He didn't play in the opener, but he replaced Brendan Brisson in the lineup Friday and set up a Shea Theodore tally in the second period. Schwindt is likely to be limited to bottom-six minutes when he's in the lineup, and while there's some physicality in his game, the lack of ice time will keep him off the radar in most fantasy formats.

Heading to Vegas Schwindt was claimed off waivers by the Golden Knights on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Schwindt spent training camp with the Flames on a one-year, two-way contract but was placed on waivers Monday. The 23-year-old has made just seven regular-season appearances in the NHL, but he'll land with Vegas ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. Even though he'll be with a different organization this year, it wouldn't be surprising to see him spend most of the season in the minors.

OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Shifts to waivers Schwindt was placed on the waiver wire Sunday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Impact Schwindt generated 14 goals and 36 points in 66 games with AHL Calgary during the 2023-24 regular season. He will probably spend the majority of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors.
