  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Pietrangelo will miss Thursday's game against Ottawa due to an upper-body injury. Pietrangelo has two goals, 14 points, 16 hits and 34 blocks in 19 outings in 2024-25. He's listed as day-to-day, so he might still be an option Saturday versus Montreal, but for now, Vegas' blue line is looking thin. The Golden Knights are also missing defensemen Nicolas Hague (undisclosed) and Ben Hutton (upper body). Robert Hagg, who was called up from AHL Henderson on Thursday, is expected to draw into the lineup Thursday due to Pietrangelo's absence.

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Pietrangelo logged an assist, three hits and three blocked shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals. Pietrangelo has just two helpers over his last eight contests, taking the shine off a strong start to the season from October. The veteran defenseman won't put up points all the time, as he's often tasked with taking care of business in his own zone. For the season, he's at two goals, 12 helpers, 36 shots on net, 30 blocked shots, 16 hits and a plus-7 rating over 18 games. Pietrangelo does enough all around to be rostered in the vast majority of formats.

  27D ago • By RotoWire

  Pietrangelo scored a goal, took four shots and posted a plus-3 rating in Monday's 5-0 win over the Flames. Pietrangelo extended his point streak to a season-high four games, and while he's earned most of his fantasy value as a playmaker out of the blue line, this time he found the back of the net with a wrister the first period, ultimately setting the tone for the Golden Knights' easy win. One of the most productive defensemen in the league over the first weeks of the regular season, Pietrangelo is up to 12 points, with one goal and 11 helpers, over his first 10 regular-season outings.
