Hanifin posted three assists (two on the power play), four shots on net and four blocked shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Oilers. Hanifin is poised for a larger role on the power play in the absence of Shea Theodore (upper body). The 28-year-old Hanifin made good on that extra usage, helping out on goals by Mitch Marner, Tomas Hertl and Pavel Dorofeyev. This was Hanifin's first multi-point effort of the season, giving him two goals, eight helpers (four on the power play), 65 shots on net, 39 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 24 appearances in a top-four role.

Hanifin scored a goal, fired three shots on net and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Islanders. Hanifin put Vegas on the scoresheet midway through the opening period with his second goal of the season. He's up to six points, 50 shots on goal and 34 blocks through 19 appearances this season. While the offense hasn't been at the same level as his past four seasons, he's remained a solid option in fantasy through his volume of shots, blocks and ice time. Hanifin should continue to see top-four minutes for the Golden Knights and is trending upward offensively after posting two points in his last three games.

Hanifin scored a goal on three shots and blocked three shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blues. Hanifin got his first goal of the season, and it extended the Golden Knights' lead to 3-0 early in the second period. The defenseman has looked good since returning from a lower-body injury that cost him most of October. He's up to three points, 20 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a minus-3 rating across seven outings while seeing steady top-four minutes.

Hanifin notched an assist and five shots on goal in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Lightning. This was Hanifin's first helper of the year, though he's been limited to three games after missing time due to a lower-body injury. The 28-year-old defenseman has resumed a role in the Golden Knights' top four over the last two contests since coming off of injured reserve. He could see some power-play time on the second unit, which boosts his scoring potential, but he doesn't play a particularly physical game for a blueliner.

Hanifin (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site. Hanifin appears poised to return to the lineup against Detroit on Tuesday after missing the last 10 games. He logged 24:00 of ice time, earning three shots on goal and two hits, in Vegas' season-opening 6-5 shootout loss to the Kings on Oct. 8 before the injury.
