  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Awarded empty-netter

    Howden scored an empty-net goal, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

    Howden was obstructed on his way to an empty net, leading to an awarded goal. He did not record a shot on goal during the contest. He's scored in three straight games and is up to four goals, three assists, 16 shots on net, 10 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 10 appearances. At his best, Howden is an effective agitator with a scoring touch, giving him some appeal as a depth option in fantasy.

  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Tallies again Thursday

    Howden scored a goal and added four PIM in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Flames.

    Howden has scored in consecutive games, and he's earned five points over his last five outings. The 28-year-old forward is seeing time on the second line lately, which has bolstered his output on offense. He's at three goals, three assists, 16 shots, 10 hits, eight PIM and a plus-5 rating through nine appearances on the year.

  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Pair of points in win

    Howden scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, logged two PIM and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Predators.

    Howden helped out on Tomas Hertl's first-period tally before scoring one of his own in the third. The 28-year-old Howden has been a reliable middle-six forward to start the year, earning five points, 15 shots, nine hits and a plus-4 rating across eight contests. He was held to 22 points in 58 regular-season contests last year, but he should rebound a bit in 2026-27 if he can sustain this steady start.

  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Scores in shootout win

    Howden scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Maple Leafs.

    The goal was Howden's first of the season. The 28-year-old has gotten a chance to open the season in the top six, but with two points through five games, he may cede his spot to a younger forward like Trevor Connelly or Braeden Bowman at some point. Howden has added 10 shots on net, seven hits and a plus-1 rating while seeing minimal power-play time.

His tally Tuesday tied the game at 3-3 in the second period, but the Golden Knights weren't able to pull ahead. Howden has a playoff-best 14 goals -- two more than his regular-season total -- and has added four assists, 37 shots on net, 58 hits and a plus-14 rating over 20 appearances this postseason.

    Howden scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, added two PIM and logged three hits in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Hurricanes in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

    This was Howden's first multi-point effort since Game 3 of the second round versus the Ducks. The 28-year-old had a hand in William Karlsson's go-ahead tally in the second period before putting Vegas up 4-3 himself with a goal 1:21 into the third. Howden has had an excellent postseason with 11 goals, three assists, 30 shots on net, 49 hits and a plus-10 rating over 17 appearances, mainly in a top-six role.

  • Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Stays hot in Game 1 win

    Howden scored a goal on four shots in a 4-2 win over the Avalanche in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Wednesday.

    Howden's tally early in the third period came just after Vegas killed off a penalty. It also stood as the game-winning goal. The 28-year-old forward has emerged as a reliable top-six option this postseason, though it's his work on the penalty kill that has stood out. He's up to nine goals, including three while shorthanded, and two assists through 13 playoff contests. Howden has also chipped in 24 shots on net, 35 hits and a plus-7 rating.
