Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: Hands out assist in loss
Saad managed an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Wild in Game 2.
Saad has a helper in each of the first two playoff games, and he's earned five points over his last three outings. The winger is seeing time on the second line at even strength, but he doesn't have a power-play role, so it may be tough for him to be consistent on offense. However, he's got enough scoring talent to be an option to fill out a DFS lineup.

Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: Garners helper
Saad logged an assist in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Wild in Game 1.
Saad rested for the regular-season finale but was back in a second-line role for the playoff opener. The 32-year-old winger has five points over nine outings in April. He'll be more of a support scorer for the Golden Knights during the postseason after putting up 30 points, 127 shots on net and a minus-8 rating between Vegas and St. Louis over 72 regular-season contests.

Saad had 13 goals and 30 points in 72 regular-season appearances between St. Louis and Vegas in 2024-25. He'll likely serve in a bottom-six capacity during the playoffs.

The 32-year-old winger is now at 13 goals, 17 assists, 127 shots on net and a minus-8 rating over 72 appearances between the Golden Knights and the Blues. He'll need to find more consistency in the playoffs.

Saad recorded an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flames.
Saad ended a seven-game point drought with the helper. It was his first real slump with the Golden Knights since he signed with the team at the end of January. He's earned 11 points over 24 outings for Vegas and has a total of 12 goals, 15 assists, 119 shots on net and a minus-7 rating over 67 appearances between the Golden Knights and the Blues this season. He continues to play in a middle-six role.

Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: Two-point effort in win
Saad scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.
Facing one of his four former teams, Saad delivered his first multi-point performance since being plucked off waivers by the Golden Knights at the end of January. The 32-year-old winger has been surprisingly productive in a middle-six role with Vegas -- after managing only seven goals and 16 points in 43 contests for the Blues earlier in the season, Saad has already delivered five goals and eight points in 13 appearances for the Knights.

Saad took a shot from the top of the circle and beat Alex Nedeljkovic for the Golden Knights' third goal of the game. With three goals and two assists over his last nine contests, Saad has provided solid depth scoring in a middle-six role. He's up to 21 points, 93 shots on net and a minus-13 rating over 53 appearances between the Golden Knights and the Blues this season, but he's been more consistent overall since joining Vegas.

Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: Puts up helper
Saad notched an assist and three shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
Saad snapped a three-game point drought when he set up Tomas Hertl's opening goal 4:33 into the contest. The 32-year-old Saad is up to four points through nine outings with the Golden Knights after he was unconditionally waived by the Blues. The winger has a total of 20 points, 92 shots on net and a minus-14 rating over 52 appearances between the two teams this season. Saad has some appeal for points only in fantasy, as long as he stays in a top-six role.

Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: Scores game-winner Saturday
Saad scored a goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.
Saad tallied 18 seconds into the third period, knocking home a second chance after a Zach Whitecloud shot went wide and caromed in front off the end boards. With three points over five outings with the Golden Knights, Saad appears to have found a good landing spot after a poor first half with the Blues. Overall, he has nine goals, 19 points, 86 shots on net and a minus-14 rating through 48 appearances this season. He's filling a middle-six role with power-play time in Vegas, and while he won't add a physical element, the offense has been enough to be worth a look in deep fantasy formats.

Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: Provides helper Saturday
Saad logged an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Bruins.
Saad has two points and 10 shots over four contests since he signed with Vegas following a mutual contract termination with St. Louis. The 32-year-old has settled onto the Golden Knights' third line, playing alongside Brett Howden and Mark Stone in the absence of William Karlsson (lower body). Saad has 18 points, 85 shots and a minus-15 rating over 47 appearances this season. He has scoring potential, but he's a risky option in fantasy since he doesn't add much else if his offense goes cold.

Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: First goal with new team
Saad scored a goal Tuesday in a 2-1 loss to the Islanders.
It was Saad's first goal as a member of the Golden Knights. He slotted onto the third line in his new home, and that means a plum gig with Mark Stone on his other wing. That's a nice landing spot for a guy the Blues deemed expendable a few days ago. Saad may provide real value to fantasy managers in deep formats who pluck him off the wire.

Golden Knights' Brandon Saad: Heading to Vegas
Saad inked a one-year contract with the Golden Knights on Friday.
Saad had plenty of teams interested in his services once he and the Blues agreed to terminate his contract after he passed through unconditional waivers. Saad had seven goals and 16 points in 40 games with the Blues this season and has hit the 20-plus goal mark on seven occasions during his NHL career. Saad is expected to be a middle-six forward the rest of the season with the Golden Knights.

Brandon Saad: Waived unconditionally
Saad was placed on unconditional waivers by the Blues on Wednesday for the purpose of terminating his contract.
Saad went unclaimed on regular waivers Tuesday but has agreed to be waived unconditionally to avoid having to head down to the minors. The Blues will save the entirety of Saad's $4.5 million cap hit, while the veteran winger will be able to sign with any NHL team as a free agent. Considering he went unclaimed Tuesday, there is no reason to expect him to be claimed Wednesday either.

Blues' Brandon Saad: Placed on waivers Tuesday
Saad was placed on waivers Tuesday, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.
Saad will report to AHL Springfield if he goes unclaimed on the waiver wire. The left-shot winger has one year remaining on the five-year, $22.5 million contract that he signed with the Blues in July of 2021. Saad's $4.5 million cap hit is a major factor -- most NHL clubs will not be able to take on that kind of money at this point in the season. The 32-year-old has amassed 260 goals and 515 points across 906 career NHL appearances.

Blues' Brandon Saad: Earns assist in 900th career game
Saad picked up an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Ducks.
This was Saad's 900th career game, and he was able to celebrate with a helper on a Pavel Buchnevich tally in the second period. The 32-year-old Saad has five points over his last four games. He's breaking out of a rough first half of the campaign, but there's no guarantee he'll be able to maintain his recent success. For the season, the winger has 15 points, 59 shots on net and a minus-9 rating across 37 appearances.

Blues' Brandon Saad: Natural hat trick in win
Saad scored three goals on six shots in Friday's 4-0 win over the Senators.
Saad has scored in just three games this season, but each of those performances have included multiple goals. He scored once in each period Friday, netting the Blues' last three tallies to complete the natural hat trick. Saad had gone 10 games without a point prior to Friday, and he was scratched three times in that span, so he really needed a game like this. He's at seven goals, 13 points, 52 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 34 appearances this season. It's too soon to tell if this will be the effort that jump-starts his offense.
