Vegas Golden Knights News

Schmid only has one regulation loss, but has not been at his best in his last two outings (0-0-2), allowing seven goals on 56 combined shots (.875 SV%). That said, he has given his team a chance on most nights, posting a serviceable 2.47 GAA and .900 SV% in 14 games (9-1-4). It’s unclear what Schmid’s workload will look like, or whether he stays in the NHL, when Carter Hart makes his debut, and Adin Hill (lower body) returns from injury. Still, the 25-year-old Schmid has proven himself as a reliable netminder for Vegas this season.

Stone has not played since suffering a wrist injury on October 18th, and few updates have been shared during his absence. That said, he was a full participant at Wednesday's morning skate and will return to the lineup against his former team, the Ottawa Senators. The 33-year-old Stone was off to another terrific start before his injury, with 13 points (2G / 11A) in six games. He is expected to play on a line with Mitch Marner and return to a role on the top powerplay unit.

The Golden Knights are coming off a disappointing 5-1 loss to the Utah Mammoth and will revert to Akira Schmid between the pipes on Wednesday against the Ottawa Senators.

The 25-year-old Swiss goalie has a 2.45 GAA and .902 SV% in 13 games this season (9-1-3). Vegas enters Wednesday's contest as -171 home favorites against a Senators team that averages 3.2 goals per game.

After Akira Schmid and the Golden Knights fell short in overtime to the Ducks on Saturday, it will be Carl Lindbom who gets the nod between the pipes when Vegas travels to Utah on Monday. Lindbom came close to securing his first career victory in his last start, allowing three goals on 28 shots in a 3-2 overtime loss in Minnesota on November 16th. The 22-year-old netminder carries an 0-3-2 record and .874 SV% into Monday night's game with the Mammoth, where the Golden Knights enter action at -115 on the money line.

The Golden Knights will turn to Schmid between the pipes for the 10th time this season when they travel to Utah on Thursday. Schmid picked up his second victory in as many starts on Tuesday, stopping 17 of the 19 shots he faced in a 3-2 win over the Rangers. The 25-year-old netminder has been a stabilizing force in net for the Golden Knights in Adin Hill's absence, compiling an impressive 8-1-2 record. Schmid and the Golden Knights enter action on Thursday at -115 on the money line.

Laczynski played eight games with the Golden Knights last season, but has yet to draw in for a 2025-26 game. The 28-year-old forward will return to the Henderson Silver Knights (AHL), where he has 13 points (4G / 9A) in 13 games this season.

Lauzon was placed on IR after missing Sunday's game vs. Minnesota and his return date is up-in-the air. The 28-year-old is in his first season in Vegas and has four assists, 28 PIMs and a +3 plus/minus in 17 games before his injury.

Laczynski earned his called up from Henderson (AHL) after putting up four goals and 13 points in 13 games to start the season. The 28-year-old appeared in eight games for Vegas in 2024-25, scoring one goal and adding six PIMs.

Schmid has earned Vegas a point in his last five starts and will look to keep his recent success going as he takes on the New York Rangers in Vegas on Tuesday. The 25-year-old Swiss netminder has done an admirable job filling in for Adin Hill (IR) in his absence this season, with his 7-1-2 record, .900 SV% and 2.50 GAA in 10 appearances. He hosts the red-hot New York Rangers, who had a three game win streak snapped on Sunday after a 2-1 loss to Detroit.
