Jack Eichel - Extends streak with helperEichel recorded an assist in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Wild.

ImpactEichel's helper extended his point streak to six games (one goals eight assists). The 26-year-old center is up to 63 points, 213 shots on net, 57 hits, 53 blocked shots and a plus-24 rating through 64 outings overall. He's hot at just the right time for Vegas fans and fantasy managers alike, and he should stay that way with the Golden Knights looking to hold onto the top spot in the Pacific Division.

Reilly Smith - Logs helper in returnSmith picked up an assist, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Wild.

ImpactSmith returned from a four-game absence and played a key role in Monday's comeback win. He set up the first of Pavel Dorofeyev's two goals in the game, and it was Smith's tally in round five of the shootout that earned Vegas the win. The winger is up to 52 points, 171 shots on net, 66 hits and a plus-9 rating through 73 appearances.

Teddy Blueger - Picks up assist MondayBlueger notched an assist in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Wild.

ImpactBlueger snapped his four-game point drought with the secondary helper on a Keegan Kolesar tally in the first period. The 28-year-old Blueger was a healthy scratch last Thursday, though that's simply a product of the Golden Knights having more healthy players than spots in the lineup. He's up to 16 points, 80 shots on net, 68 hits, 45 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 60 appearances between Vegas and Pittsburgh this season.

Ben Hutton - Making most of playing timeHutton notched an assist in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Wild.

ImpactHutton has played in three straight games, picking up a goal and three helpers over that span. The 29-year-old defenseman has often been the emergency depth option on the Golden Knights' blue line, so he's had little chance to build momentum even when he plays. For the season, he's at seven points, 47 shots on net, 28 blocked shots and 14 hits through 26 contests.

Pavel Dorofeyev - Steps up after being scratchedDorofeyev scored two goals in Vegas' 4-3 shootout victory over Minnesota on Monday.

ImpactIt was a nice statement game from Dorofeyev after the Golden Knights scratched him Saturday. He even found the back of the net in the shootout, though that third marker doesn't count towards his season totals. Dorofeyev's up to seven markers and nine points in 13 outings this season.

Keegan Kolesar - Provides goal vs. MinnesotaKolesar netted a goal in Vegas' 4-3 shootout win over Minnesota on Monday.

ImpactKolesar tallied the marker midway through the first period to open the scoring. It was his eighth goal and 17th point in 69 outings this season. Kolesar didn't record a point over his previous five contests, but he did dish out 21 hits in that span and is up to 259 in 2022-23.

William Karlsson - Picks up two helpers MondayKarlsson registered two assists in Vegas' 4-3 shootout win over Minnesota on Monday.

ImpactKarlsson has 14 goals and 51 points in 77 appearances this season. This is the first time he's reached the 50-point milestone since 2018-19, though he's still well behind his career highs of 43 markers and 78 points from 2017-18. Karlsson went through a bit of a cold patch over his previous five contests, recording a goal and an assist in that span.
