• Golden Knights' William Karlsson: Moves to LTIR

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Karlsson (lower body) was transferred from regular injured reserve to long-term injured reserve on Friday, per PuckPedia. Karlsson has already missed the required amount of time, so he'll be eligible for activation whenever ready. The 32-year-old center was deemed week-to-week in mid-November, and there's been no update on his status since then. This move will free up some cap space for the Golden Knights.

  Karlsson (lower body) was designated for injured reserve Wednesday, per Sin Bin Vegas.

  Karlsson (lower body) won't play against Florida on Monday, according to SinBin Vegas. Karlsson will miss at least one game after getting hurt in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to Anaheim. However, it's unclear when he will be ready to return. Karlsson has earned four goals, seven points, 30 shots on net and 13 blocked shots through 14 appearances this season. With Karlsson unavailable to play versus the Panthers, Brett Howden will occupy the third-line center role in Monday's lineup.

• Golden Knights' William Karlsson: Dealing with lower-body injury

  11/09/2025 • By RotoWire

  Karlsson sustained a lower-body injury versus the Ducks on Saturday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports. Head coach Bruce Cassidy estimated that Karlsson is in the day-to-day range, but any official update won't come until Monday at the earliest, as the Golden Knights will not practice Sunday. That leaves Karlsson in doubt -- but not yet ruled out -- for Monday's contest versus the Panthers. Alexander Holtz is likely to enter the lineup if Karlsson can't play, while Brett Howden would likely shift from the wing to center.
