Puts up helper Kolesar notched an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Canadiens.

Impact Kolesar has five points over his last five games, which has been one of his best stretches of the campaign. The power forward was on the second line with Tomas Hertl and William Karlsson for this contest. Kolesar likely can't score at a rate that would be expected with that role, but he's on a career pace in 2024-25. He has nine goals, seven helpers, 45 shots on net, 109 hits, 26 blocked shots, 21 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 37 appearances.

Goal, assist in win Kolesar scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Monday's 3-1 win over the Ducks.

Impact This was Kolesar's second straight game with a pair of points. He was held without a hit for the first time since Opening Night, but that's a small price to pay if he continues to perform on offense. The 27-year-old power winger has nine goals, 15 points, 42 shots on net, 104 hits, 26 blocked shots, 21 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 34 appearances. Kolesar's career high in points is 24 from the 2021-22 campaign, but he's on pace to shatter that mark in 2024-25.

One of each in win Kolesar scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, added five hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Kraken.

Impact This was Kolesar's first scoring contribution since he signed a three-year extension with the Golden Knights on Dec. 13. The 27-year-old winger has primarily filled a bottom-six role this season, though he occasionally gets rewarded with extra ice time when he's playing well. Kolesar has eight goals, five assists, 39 shots on net, 104 hits and a plus-3 rating through 33 contests overall, so he may have some appeal in deep formats that reward his physicality.

Tallies in loss Kolesar scored a goal, levied three hits and blocked two shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals.

Impact Kolesar was on a new-look second line with Tomas Hertl and Nicolas Roy for this contest. The Golden Knights have had to tinker with their forward group amid Mark Stone's (lower body) ongoing absence. Kolesar snapped a five-game point drought with the tally and now has five goals, four assists, 19 shots on net, 55 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 18 appearances this season. He's likely not suited to a top-six role in the long run, but he'll always add physicality regardless of his spot in the lineup.
