Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Nets another shortie
Howden scored a shorthanded goal on three shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Ducks in Game 6.
Howden netted his third shorthanded goal and eighth tally overall this postseason, and it stood as the series-clinching goal. The 28-year-old is up to 10 points, 20 shots on net, 34 hits and a plus-6 rating over 12 playoff contests. He continues to feature in a top-six role and has delivered offense in line with that assignment.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Pots goal in loss
Howden scored a goal and added four hits in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks in Game 4.
Howden continues to fill the net -- this was his seventh goal of the postseason, all of which have come over his last seven games. The 28-year-old forward has added two assists, 17 shots on net, 29 hits and a plus-4 rating over 10 playoff contests. Howden will continue to see top-six minutes as long as he remains productive, especially with no one in the bottom six stepping up to challenge him for the spot.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: One of each in win
Howden scored an empty-net goal, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-2 win over the Ducks in Game 3.
Howden helped out on the second goal of Mitch Marner's hat trick midway through the second period before adding an empty-netter of his own in the third. After a quiet start to the postseason, Howden has thrived with top-six responsibilities lately. He's up to six goals, two helpers, 16 shots on net, 25 hits, four PIM and a plus-3 rating over nine playoff contests.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Keeps scoring streak alive
Howden scored a goal on two shots and added four hits in Monday's 3-1 win over the Ducks in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Howden went pointless in the Golden Knights' first three playoff games, but he's been on a tear since then and is currently riding a four-game, five-goal streak. Howden has scored his five goals on eight shots, so he's going to regress at some point, but he should continue to play a prominent role on offense for Vegas as long as he stays hot.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Stays hot in Game 6 win
Howden scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 5-1 win over the Mammoth in Game 6.
Howden was quiet to begin the postseason, but he's earned four goals and an assist over his last three contests. That corresponds to a move into the top six for the 28-year-old, who is likely to stay there as long as he remains productive on offense. Howden will look to keep his scoring going against the Ducks in the second round.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Delivers clutch game-winner
Howden scored a shorthanded goal and added five hits in Wednesday's 5-4 double-overtime win over the Mammoth in Game 5.
Howden tallied 5:28 into the second overtime to seal this win, putting the Golden Knights ahead 3-2 in the series. A move into the top six has paid off for the 28-year-old, who has three goalies -- including two while shorthanded -- and an assist over his last two games. Over five playoff contests, he's added nine shots on net, 14 hits and a plus-2 rating. Howden will have increased value in DFS formats as long as he's drawing even-strength assignments alongside Jack Eichel.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Clutch performance in Game 4
Howden recorded two goals, including one shorthanded, and an assist in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Mammoth in Game 4 of their first-round series.
Howden had gone pointless while posting an even rating in the first three games of the series, but he came out of nowhere to deliver three points while also logging 21:54 TOI -- a playoff-high mark for the 28-year-old. Howden has a bottom-six role in the lineup, so he's not expected to deliver multi-point performances on a regular basis, but he should continue to see scoring opportunities due to his role in the second power-play unit. He had 22 points (12 goals, 10 assists) across 58 regular-season appearances this year.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Lights lamp in shootout loss
Howden scored a goal in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Kraken.
Howden has scored three goals and added an assist over four games in April. He's been one of the biggest early beneficiaries of the John Tortorella era in Vegas. Howden has 12 goals, 22 points, 65 shots on net, 97 hits, 39 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 55 appearances this season. He had 23 goals and 40 points in 80 regular-season contests a year ago, so it's not too surprising he's been able to turn up the heat on offense after a slow start to the campaign.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Earns pair of points
Howden scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Oilers.
Howden has three points over his last two games and looks to be fitting in just fine on a line with Jack Eichel. For the season, Howden is up to 11 goals, 21 points, 63 shots on net, 93 hits, 39 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 53 appearances. Still, the 28-year-old can provide a boost to fantasy managers who need physicality and a little depth scoring, as long as he stays in a top-six role.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Nets 10th goal in win
Howden scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flames.
Howden ended a 13-game goal drought that began Jan. 10 before he sustained a lower-body injury that kept him out of action for nearly two months. The 28-year-old forward was on the top line Thursday, so he looks to be an early beneficiary of new head coach John Tortorella's adjustments to the lineup. Howden hasn't done a lot this season with 10 goals, 19 points, 59 shots on net, 39 PIM, 93 hits and a minus-10 rating over 52 appearances.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Generates power-play assist
Howden logged a power-play assist and two PIM in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Predators.
This was Howden's first point in seven games since he returned from a lower-body injury March 8 versus the Oilers. The 27-year-old forward has slotted into a middle-six role with a spot on the second power-play unit, but he doesn't have a lot of scoring upside. He's at 16 points, 52 shots on net, 84 hits, 28 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 46 outings this season.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Set to return Sunday
Howden (lower body) will be activated from long-term injured reserve prior to Sunday's game versus the Oilers, per SinBin.vegas.
Howden will miss his 20th consecutive game Friday, but that looks to be the end of his absence. The 27-year-old will be a bottom-six option upon his return Sunday. He will need to be activated from long-term injured reserve to officially make his return.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Lands on LTIR
Howden (lower body) was transferred to long-term injured reserve Tuesday, per PuckPedia.
Howden has already missed the requisite time, so he can return whenever he's healthy. Vegas has not provided an update on his status since he was placed on injured reserve Jan. 20. Once healthy, he'll contend for bottom-six minutes.

Vegas recalled Jonas Rondbjerg from AHL Henderson in a corresponding move. Howden has missed the last five games and isn't expected to return until after February's Olympic break. He has accounted for nine goals, 15 points, 46 shots on net and 66 hits across 39 appearances this season.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Unavailable Saturday
Howden (lower body) won't play Saturday versus Nashville, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Howden also missed the Golden Knights' previous three games due to the injury. He has nine goals and 15 points in 39 outings in 2025-26. With Howden and Colton Sissons (upper body) unavailable, Tanner Laczynski and Alexander Holtz will be in Saturday's lineup.
