    Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Inks five-year extension

    Brett Howden signed a five-year, $12.5 million contract extension with the Vegas Golden Knights on Friday.Howden is in the midst of his fourth season with the Golden Knights, and his extension will keep him under contract with the team through the 2029-30 campaign. The 26-year-old is on pace for one of the best years of his career this season, as he's tallied eight goals, nine points and 29 hits while averaging 15:07 of ice time over his first 20 appearances. However, even with his improved pace of getting on the scoresheet, Howden's fantasy upside remains limited.

He is up to six goals, one assist, 28 shots on net, 14 hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 12 contests. The 26-year-old won't be a leader on offense, but he's emerging as a reliable secondary scorer with a physical edge, and that's worth a look in fantasy.

    Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Deposits goal

    Brett Howden scored a goal on three shots and blocked three shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Panthers.Howden is up to three goals in six games this season, which is pretty good work for a fourth-liner. He may not stay in that role much longer -- Vegas swapped Howden and Tanner Pearson mid-game Saturday. The Vegas Golden Knights' wing depth is a little shaky, so Howden may get a chance to see more middle-six opportunities throughout the year. He brings a physical edge, though he's produced just four hits and five blocked shots in addition to 15 shots on net and a minus-3 rating so far.

The 26-year-old forward has two goals on eight shots while adding three hits through three contests this season. Howden continues to occupy a third-line role.

    Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Pots goal Wednesday

    Brett Howden scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Avalanche.Howden had a productive game as the fourth-line center, though he saw 13:19 of ice time. The 26-year-old has played all over the Vegas lineup in recent years, so it's no surprise to see him earn more ice time than his role would suggest. The center had 19 points in 72 regular-season outings last year. Howden can offer a little depth scoring and physicality, but he's unlikely to be a factor on the power play, so he has limited fantasy utility.
