Coghlan skated 12:06 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Islanders, registering zero points.
The seldom-used Coghlan has been a healthy scratch more often than not this season. He has just a pair of helpers -- both of which came in the same game Dec. 22 -- in 11 games and should not be on anyone's fantasy roster at the present time.

Hurricanes' Dylan Coghlan: Heading on conditioning assignment
Rotowire
Coghlan was assigned to AHL Chicago on a conditioning loan Wednesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Coghlan is eligible to spend 14 days with the Wolves during the assignment. He hasn't played an NHL game since Nov. 9, so this is a way for the Hurricanes to get the 24-year-old into game action. This move also more or less guarantees Jalen Chatfield will retain a third-pairing role with the big club for the next two weeks at a minimum.
Coghlan is projected to be scratched Wednesday against Columbus.
Coghlan did leave Carolina's preseason game against Buffalo on Oct. 4 with a lower-body injury, but his expected absence Wednesday appears to be a coach's decision. Coghlan has been practicing and remained on the ice with the scratches after Wednesday's morning skate. He had three goals and 13 points in 59 games with Vegas in 2021-22.
Coghlan exited Tuesday's game versus the Sabres with a lower-body injury.
Coghlan has made strides to be on the Hurricanes' Opening Night roster, so this injury couldn't come at a worse time. The severity of the injury is unknown, but more information should be available in the coming days. The Hurricanes don't play again until their season opener next Wednesday versus the Blue Jackets.

Hurricanes' Dylan Coghlan: Competing hard for roster spot
Rotowire
Coghlan has a good chance to crack the Hurricanes' opening night roster, Chip Alexander of the News & Observer reports.
Coghlan has been turning heads so far in preseason and stood out with a three-assist effort in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Lightning. The 24-year-old blueliner recorded 13 points in 59 games with Vegas last season before being dealt to the Canes along with Max Pacioretty in July.
Coghlan and Max Pacioretty were traded from the Golden Knights to the Hurricanes on Wednesday in exchange for future considerations, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.
The Golden Knights needed to free up cap space, so they sent two players to the Hurricanes for essentially nothing. Coghlan should have a chance to compete for a bottom-four role in Carolina after posting 13 points in 59 contests in 2021-22.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Plays part-time role
Rotowire
Coghlan logged 13 points in 59 appearance in 2021-22.
Coghlan was able to play nearly three quarters of the Golden Knights' games in his second NHL campaign. Much of his playing time was due to a long-term injury to Alec Martinez -- Coghlan likely would have been a healthy scratch more if the team's defense corps was at full health. The 24-year-old added 62 hits, 61 blocked shots and 108 shots on net while occasionally drawing power-play time. He'll likely be in contention for a third-pairing role again in 2022-23.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Has lost place in lineup
Rotowire
Coghlan has been a healthy scratch for the last six games.
Coghlan was on a four-game point drought prior to his extended stint in the press box. The 24-year-old has been decent with 13 points, 61 hits, 60 blocked shots and 103 shots on goal in 57 outings this season. Barring an injury or a shakeup from head coach Pete DeBoer, Coghlan's playing time will likely remain limited at best as the Golden Knights fight for a playoff spot.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Adds assist Saturday
Rotowire
Coghlan produced an assist and four hits in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.
Coghlan's helper ended his five-game point drought. The 24-year-old defenseman has seen a regular role this season, but he's often seen bottom-four minutes. Coghlan's at 13 points, 101 shots on net, 58 hits, 58 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 53 contests.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Fails to score despite flurry
Rotowire
Coghlan unleashed six shots in a 4-0 loss to the Jets on Tuesday.
Coghlan did not find the back of the net in this one, but it wasn't for lack of trying. The 24-year-old defenseman has not been much for scoring of late. After compiling three goals and seven assists through Dec. 31, the blueliner has no goals and two assists in 26 contests since.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Ends slump with helper
Rotowire
Coghlan produced an assist, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Jets.
Coghlan had gone 18 games without a point, and he missed six games in that span for illnesses and healthy scratches. He's had no choice but to play lately with the Golden Knights missing Brayden McNabb (arm) and Ben Hutton (COVID-19 protocols). Coghlan is up to 12 points, 86 shots on net, 46 blocked shots, 43 hits and a minus-4 rating in 47 contests. He'll see some power-play time on the second unit, but the 24-year-old doesn't score enough to help in most fantasy formats.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Serving as healthy scratch
Rotowire
Coghlan has overcome his illness but is a healthy scratch Tuesday versus the Sharks, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Coghlan was present at Monday's practice, indicating he's no longer dealing with an illness. The defenseman didn't have a guaranteed place in the lineup with the return of Zach Whitecloud from a foot injury, so Coghlan could end up being a healthy scratch often in the near future.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Out Friday
Rotowire
Coghlan (illness) will not be in Friday's lineup against the Coyotes, Ben Gotz of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Coghlan is dealing with the flu and his status for Saturday's game against the Avalanche is likely in question as of now. He'll be replaced by Zach Whitecloud (foot), who is returning from injured reserve Friday. Coghlan has 11 points while averaging 14:20 of ice time through 40 games this season.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Ruled out for road trip
Rotowire
Coghlan (COVID-19 protocols) has been added to non-roster injured reserve, per the NHL Media Site, and will not participate in Tuesday's game against Edmonton or Wednesday's tilt versus Calgary.
Coghlan hasn't played since Jan. 27, when he entered COVID-19 protocols. While he did clear the league's protocols and resume practicing with the team Monday, he's ineligible to cross the Canadian border due to his positive test, so he will miss the Knights' two-game road trip. The 23-year-old has averaged 15:44 of ice time -- 1:02 during the power play -- and dealt one assist over his last 10 appearances. He will set his sights on returning for the game against Colorado on Feb. 16.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Playing Tuesday
Rotowire
Contrary to a previous report, Coghlan has cleared the COVID-19 protocols and will play Tuesday versus the Oilers, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Coghlan cleared the protocols Monday, and he's past the 10-day requirement to enter Canada, so he's good to go. The 23-year-old will play in a third-pairing role against the Oilers on Tuesday. He has 11 points, 66 shots on net and 36 blocked shots in 35 games this season.
