Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: On ice for practice Friday
Whitecloud (rest) participated in Friday's practice session, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports, indicating that he'll be available for Sunday's Game 1 against the Wild.
Whitecloud sat out Wednesday's regular-season finale against Vancouver due to rest purposes, but he'll unsurprisingly be back in action for the start of the playoffs. He recorded four goals, nine assists, 117 hits, 103 blocked shots and 37 PIM while averaging 17:31 of ice time over 74 appearances during the regular season.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Out of action for finale
Whitecloud (rest) won't play Wednesday versus the Canucks, Ryan Wallis of Fox Sports Las Vegas reports.
Whitecloud doesn't appear to be dealing with an injury. He'll get a game off to end the regular season after posting 13 hits, 72 shots on net, 117 hits and 103 blocked shots over 74 appearances. Whitecloud will likely be on the third pairing for most of the postseason, likely at the expense of Kaedan Korczak's playing time.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Contributes rare helper
Whitecloud logged an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Predators.
Whitecloud set up Noah Hanifin's game-winning goal with 1:55 left in the third period. As long as Alex Pietrangelo (undisclosed) and Nicolas Hague (illness) are out, Whitecloud will see a larger role on defense. That won't necessarily lead to more offense -- his assist Saturday ended a nine-game point drought. The 28-year-old is at 13 points, 72 shots on net, 115 hits, 102 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating across 73 appearances.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Offers helper in win
Whitecloud notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Lightning.
Whitecloud has three helpers and a plus-8 rating over 14 contests since the 4 Nations Face-Off break. He's been tasked with a larger defensive role in that stretch to help cover the absence of Shea Theodore (arm). Whitecloud is up to 12 points, 63 shots on net, 95 hits, 87 blocked shots, 35 PIM and a plus-7 rating through a career-high 63 games this season. He's on pace to finish right around his 14-point total from the 2023-24 regular season, though it took him just 61 outings to accumulate that production last year.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Contributes assist
Whitecloud posted an assist, two shots on goal, four hits and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.
Whitecloud followed up his three-game point streak in February with a four-game slump. That dry spell ended Friday when he assisted on Tanner Pearson's opening tally. Whitecloud is now at 11 points, 55 shots on net, 83 hits, 77 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 55 appearances. He's on pace for a career high in games played, but he'll likely fall short of the career-best 19 points he had in 2021-22.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Snags helper Saturday
Whitecloud registered an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.
Whitecloud has a chance to carve out a larger role while Shea Theodore (arm) is out of action. That didn't fully come to fruition Saturday -- Whitecloud's 16:47 of ice time versus the Canucks is only minimally higher than his 16:22 per game this season. The blueliner is at 10 points, 52 shots on net, 69 hits, 70 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 50 appearances, and he's earned a point in three straight games (one goal, two assists).

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Finds twine Saturday
Whitecloud tallied a goal and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-3 victory over the Bruins.
Whitecloud put away the only goal of the second period for Vegas off a feed from his new defense partner Noah Hanifin. Whitecloud has four goals, five assists, 51 shots on net and 69 blocks across 49 appearances this season. The 28-year-old blueliner has points in back-to-back games for the second time this season and is contributing offensively in his new pairing with Hanifin. While Whitecloud's fantasy ceiling is capped in a bottom-four role, he can benefit from the talent surrounding him in Vegas.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Gets on scoresheet with assist
Whitecloud produced an assist, two shots on goal and three hits in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Devils.
Whitecloud snapped an 11-game point drought when he helped out on Jack Eichel's third-period tally. A couple of slumps from blueliners have caused the Golden Knights to shuffle their pairings -- Whitecloud and Noah Hanifin were both able to end droughts in this contest while playing together on the third pairing. Whitecloud has minimal scoring upside with eight points, 50 shots on net, 67 hits, 67 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 48 appearances this season.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Offers helper in win
Whitecloud notched an assist and two blocked shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Wild.
Whitecloud continues to chip in more offense than usual -- he has five points over his last nine games. The 28-year-old's latest contribution was a primary helper on Keegan Kolesar's go-ahead goal in the third period of Sunday's win. Whitecloud is up to seven points, 39 shots on net, 56 blocked shots, 52 hits and a plus-5 rating through 36 appearances in a third-pairing role.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Finds twine in win
Whitecloud scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.
Whitecloud has been unusually productive lately with two goals and two assists over his last six games, going plus-5 in that span. The 28-year-old's role hasn't changed -- he's still on the third pairing with no power-play time -- so it doesn't seem likely he'll be able to keep up this recent pace. The blueliner has three goals, three assists, 34 shots on net, 49 hits, 52 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 33 appearances this season.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Adds helper in win
Whitecloud managed an assist in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Sabres.
Whitecloud has earned three points over five contests. That's a decent stretch for the third-pairing defenseman, but it's unlikely to last. He has five points, 32 shots on net, 49 hits, 51 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 32 appearances this season. Whitecloud is unlikely to be pressured for playing time by Kaedan Korczak, as the Golden Knights rarely make changes on the blue line when their preferred six defensemen are healthy.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Pockets first since Opening Night
Whitecloud scored a goal on one shot in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Canadiens. He added one block and one hit.
Whitecloud was an unlikely source to give the Golden Knights an early lead. He buried a feed from Tomas Hertl for his second goal of the season and first since Opening Night. The third-pair defenseman has four points through 30 outings.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Chips in with helper
Whitecloud notched an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Friday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.
The helper was Whitecloud's first in seven games since he returned from an upper-body injury. The 28-year-old has resumed his usual role on the third pairing, a spot that hasn't yielded much offense in 2024-25. He has three points, 28 shots on net, 49 blocked shots, 43 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 28 appearances this season. Given his limited scoring, Whitecloud doesn't need to be considered in most fantasy formats.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Set to play Thursday
Whitecloud (upper body) is expected back in the lineup versus Winnipeg on Thursday, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Whitecloud has been sidelined since Nov. 23 versus the Canadiens, a stretch of seven games on the shelf due to his upper-body issue. Considering he has just two points in 21 games this season, few fantasy players will be significantly impacted by his return to the lineup. Kaedan Korczak will likely be relegated to a spot in the press box with Whitecloud back in action.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Set to play during trip
Whitecloud (upper body) is expected to suit up at some point during the Golden Knights' three-game road trip, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports Monday.
Head coach Bruce Cassidy didn't specify which game might work for Whitecloud's return to action, only indicating that it is expected at some point during the trip. Prior to his seven-game absence due to his upper-body problem, the 28-year-old blueliner was struggling to produce in the offensive end with just one point in his last 20 outings. Once cleared to play, Whitecloud figures to supplant Kaedan Korczak for a spot on the third defensive pairing.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Unavailable Friday
Whitecloud (upper body) didn't take contact during Friday's morning skate, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, so he's not expected to play at home against Dallas.
Whitecloud also missed Vegas' past six games. He has a goal, two points, 33 hits and 40 blocks in 21 outings in 2024-25. He will likely serve on the third pairing once he's ready to return.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Won't face Oilers
Whitecloud (upper body) will not be in action versus Edmonton on Tuesday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Whitecloud will be sidelined for his fifth consecutive contest due to his lingering upper-body problem. Vegas isn't particularly forthcoming when it comes to injuries, but the fact that the blueliner still isn't practicing should be an indication he'll also miss out versus the Ducks on Wednesday. If the Knights need a roster spot, they could put Whitecloud on injured reserve without impacting his return day since he's already been sidelined for over a week.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Won't return Saturday
Whitecloud (upper body) will miss Saturday's tilt against Utah, according to Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Whitecloud will miss his fourth straight game. He has a goal and one assist through 21 outings in 2024-25. His next chance to play will come Tuesday versus Edmonton.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Remains out Friday
Whitecloud (upper body) is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Jets, Ryan Wallis of Fox Sports Las Vegas reports.
Whitecloud will miss his third straight game, and it's unlikely he'll be ready for the second half of a back-to-back Saturday when the Golden Knights host Utah. The 28-year-old defenseman's status has not been updated since he exited last Saturday's game versus the Canadiens.

Golden Knights' Zach Whitecloud: Sitting out Wednesday
Whitecloud (upper body) won't play Wednesday versus the Avalanche, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Whitecloud is set to miss his second consecutive game after he got hurt in Montreal on Saturday. Kaedan Korczak remains in the lineup with Whitecloud unavailable. It's unclear if Whitecloud will be ready to return during a back-to-back with games Friday versus the Jets and Saturday against Utah.
