Olofsson (lower body) was labeled week-to-week by coach Bruce Cassidy on Monday.
Olofsson was supposed to be getting a fresh start in Vegas but once again finds himself headed for a stint on the sidelines. At minimum, the 29-year-old winger, who has already missed two games due to his lower-body injury, figures to be out of action for at least the next three matchups.

Golden Knights' Victor Olofsson: Tallies twice in win
Olofsson scored two goals, including one on the power play, in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Avalanche.
Olofsson offered a quick response to Mikko Rantanen's opening tally in the first period, then scored again late in the second. The latter goal was the game-winner. After six seasons in Buffalo, Olofsson is looking to get his career back on track in Vegas. He was limited to 15 points in 51 outings last season, but the Golden Knights appear willing to give him a spot on the first power-play unit, which has typically been a catalyst for his previous success. He's worth a look in deeper fantasy formats as long as he keeps that role, even though he's a middle-six forward at even strength with little in the way of non-scoring production.
