Golden Knights' William Karlsson: Dealing with lower-body injury
William 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 Vegas Golden Knights will not practice Sunday. That leaves Karlsson in doubt -- but not yet ruled out -- for Monday's contest versus the Panthers.

The 32-year-old center is a key part of the Vegas Golden Knights' middle six, which would make him a tough loss if he's out for any time. Alexander Holtz would likely enter the lineup if Karlsson misses action, though the team might also want to add a forward from AHL Henderson for depth purposes.

Golden Knights' William Karlsson: Nets lone goal
William Karlsson scored a goal, fired two shots on net and blocked two attempts in Sunday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Lightning.Karlsson's tally was the lone twine finder of the weekend for the Vegas Golden Knights, who were shut out by the Panthers on Saturday. The 32-year-old center is up to four goals, five points, 20 shots on net and 10 blocks through nine appearances. Karlsson has dealt with injuries each of the last two seasons, with his point total being capped at 29 through 53 regular-season games a year ago. He is already well above the necessary pace to top that mark, and his additional category coverage makes him a solid fantasy option in a majority of league formats.

Golden Knights' William Karlsson: Helps out on empty netter
William Karlsson logged an assist in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Flames.The helper was Karlsson's first point in four games this season. He's maintained a middle-six role, but he's not seeing prime chances as the third-line center and a member of the second power-play unit. Karlsson's defensive skills will keep him in a prominent role, but he's not expected to be a 50-point threat anymore.
