Alex Pietrangelo Doesn't Rule Out Return This Season

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (hip) has not ruled out playing in 2025-26. "Nothing is really concrete. I'm just going to continue to take it day-by-day and see where it goes," the veteran defenseman said Monday when asked whether he would rule out playing this upcoming season. During the offseason, the Golden Knights announced that Pietrangelo was stepping away from "the intensity of hockey" to see if his injured hip could improve enough to have "a normal quality of life." He was expected to miss the entire 2025-26 season at a minimum. However, Pietrangelo's rehab has been going well, giving hope that he can return to action at some point this season. The 35-year-old finished last season with 33 points (four goals, 29 assists), 123 shots, 139 blocks, and a plus-11 rating in 71 games.

Alex Pietrangelo Stepping Away From Golden Knights for Health Reasons

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo is expected to sit out the 2025-26 season after announcing that he is stepping away from the team for health reasons. The 35-year-old veteran is dealing with hip problems. "The past few years have been very challenging on my physical well-being, and I am in a difficult position with my overall playing health," Pietrangelo said in a statement. "After exploring options with doctors as well as my family, it's been advised to remove the intensity of hockey to see if my body can improve so that I can return to a normal quality of life." Pietrangelo, a two-time Stanley Cup champion, posted 33 points (four goals, 29 assists) in 71 games this term. The Vegas blue line will get a new look next season, with Pietrangelo sidelined and Nicolas Hague traded to the Nashville Predators.

Alex Pietrangelo A Game-Time Decision Thursday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (illness) is a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup with the Edmonton Oilers. He missed the series opener as a late scratch due to an illness, but Pietrangelo was able to skate on Thursday morning. Golden Knights head coach Bruce Cassidy said that there is a chance the veteran rearguard will play in Game 2. Pietrangelo's return would give a nice lift to the team. Over six postseason appearances this year, Pietrangelo has recorded three points (one goal, two assists), nine shots, 15 blocks, and six hits with a plus-two rating. Kaedan Korczak figures to remain in the lineup if Pietrangelo is not ready to return on Thursday night.

Alex Pietrangelo Battling An Illness

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo was unavailable for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Edmonton Oilers due to an illness. He was a late scratch for the contest, with Kaedan Korczak entering the lineup to make his Stanley Cup Playoffs debut. The 24-year-old had a relatively uneventful night, recording one shot, one block, and one hit over 13:04 of ice time. Pietrangelo also missed time at the end of the regular season, making only 71 appearances. He posted 33 points (four goals, 29 assists) while ranking second on the team with 139 blocks. The veteran defenseman has registered three points (one goal, two assists) and 15 blocks in six playoff games. Pietrangelo's first opportunity to return will be on Thursday in Game 2 of the series.

Alex Pietrangelo Unavailable Versus Predators

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (undisclosed) is not ready to rejoin the action on Saturday against the Nashville Predators, marking his third consecutive missed game. The veteran has had difficulty staying in the lineup as the regular season comes to a close, having sat out six of the last nine games. However, Golden Knights head coach Bruce Cassidy remains hopeful that Pietrangelo will be healthy enough to return in time for the playoffs. Nicolas Hague (illness) will also miss a third straight game on Saturday, allowing Ben Hutton and Kaedan Korczak to stay in the lineup.

Alex Pietrangelo Unavailable Thursday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Seattle Kraken. An illness bug is circulating in the Golden Knights' locker room, and Pietrangelo is among its victims. He will sit out a second consecutive game. Pietrangelo has posted identical numbers to last year, boasting four goals and 33 points through 70 games. His next chance for a comeback will be on Saturday against the Nashville Predators. Losing Pietrangelo is a blow for Vegas, but the team will receive some help in defense on Thursday night, with Nicolas Hague (illness) on track to return. Ben Hutton will likely be a healthy scratch for the contest.

Alex Pietrangelo On Track To Return Thursday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (lower body) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Thursday against the Winnipeg Jets. He has sat out four games due to a lower-body injury. The veteran blue-liner leads the Golden Knights in average ice time per game (22:29) and has notched 32 points (four goals, 28 assists) in 67 games. "Petro's' going back to being one of the best defensemen in the National Hockey League. It's nice to have him back," Golden Knights head coach Bruce Cassidy said. "He's ready to go. He goes in. He helps us be better, so it's that simple for me." Pietrangelo will slot back into the top-four group in defense, pushing Kaedan Korczak out of the line.

Alex Pietrangelo To Miss At Least Two More Games

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (lower body) will be out for at least two more games. He missed Tuesday's contest against the Minnesota Wild due to a lower-body injury. On Friday, Golden Knights head coach Bruce Cassidy said that Pietrangelo would not play again on the team's road trip, which has two more stops to go. The team faces the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday and the Nashville Predators on Saturday. Kaedan Korczak is poised to make a second consecutive appearance against Chicago. He made a positive impact in Tuesday's clash against Minnesota, registering one assist, two shots, and three hits across 17:08 of ice time.

Alex Pietrangelo May Not Play During Road Trip

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (lower body) may not suit up for the remainder of their road trip. Pietrangelo's injury is not expected to be long-term, but the team may opt to lean on the side of caution to ensure he is healthy for the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Pietrangelo was unable to play in their previous game and could sit out on Friday when they travel to Chicago and Saturday when they travel to Nashville. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to their next home contest next Tuesday against the Edmonton Oilers. Before his injury, Pietrangelo tallied six points (one goal) over his last six contests. During this stretch, the 35-year-old logged four hits and nine blocked shots. While he is sidelined, Kaedan Korczak will remain in the starting lineup.

Alex Pietrangelo Sends Out Two Helpers In Victory

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo tallied two helpers during their 4-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday evening. In the opening frame, Pietrangelo would tally the secondary assist on Nicholas Roy's power-play goal. Later in the third, Pietrangelo would add the primary assist on Nicholas Hague's empty-netter, which put the game out of reach. This outing extended his point streak to three games. During this stretch, he has tallied four helpers. Over his last six contests, Pietrangelo has only been held off the scoresheet once and added nine blocked shots with a stellar +7 rating. Through 67 total games this campaign, the 35-year-old has found the back of the net four times and added 28 helpers. Pietrangelo also carries value in leagues that reward blocks, as he has averaged 1.9 blocked shots per game this season.

Alex Pietrangelo Returns To Golden Knights Lineup

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (upper body) will return from a three-game absence on Wednesday against Colorado. He will take Robert Hagg's position in the lineup and should join his regular partner, Noah Hanifin, in a first defensive pairing role. Pietrangelo has had a productive campaign with 14 points (two goals, 12 assists) in 19 outings. All but one of Pietrangelo's points have come in even-strength situations. He's also registered 39 shots and 34 hits. Pietrangelo has offered good two-way value for fantasy managers and should continue to play a big role for Vegas.

Alex Pietrangelo Remains Out Saturday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (upper body) will miss a second consecutive game on Saturday against Montreal. The veteran has been in fine form this season, posting 14 points (two goals, 12 assists) in 19 contests. He is ranked just outside the top 10 in the defensemen scoring list. Additionally, Pietrangelo boasts 34 blocks and 16 hits. Robert Hagg entered the lineup on Thursday against Ottawa but might have to sit again on Saturday, as Nicolas Hague (undisclosed) is close to returning and officially a game-time decision for Saturday. Pietrangelo's next chance to return comes in Monday's game against Philadelphia.

Alex Pietrangelo Extends Season-Opening Point Streak

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo extended his season-opening point streak to three games in Sunday's 3-1 victory over Anaheim. He has become the first blue-liner in franchise history to start a season with a three-game scoring streak, notching all of the points with even-strength assists. Pietrangelo's productivity nosedived last season as he battled health issues, but it looks like he still has some juice left. The 34-year-old sees big minutes as part of the top defensive pairing and the second power-play unit. He will attempt to take his streak to four games in Vegas' first road game of the season at Washington on Tuesday night.

Alex Pietrangelo A Full Practice Participant

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo was a full practice participant on Saturday after undergoing an appendectomy. He is expected to dress for Game 1 of the team's first-round series against the Dallas Stars on Sunday. The veteran notched four goals and 33 points on 141 shots on goal while he also blocked a hefty 160 shots across 64 games on the season. Vegas finished in the second Wild Card spot in the Western Conference, setting up a road matchup with the top-seeded Stars in the first round.

Alex Pietrangelo Could Be Back On Saturday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (illness) could return to the lineup when the team visits the Minnesota Wild on Saturday. The veteran has missed the past six games due to an illness but skated as part of an optional skate at the Xcel Energy Center on Friday. "He's skating today. So that's good news," Vegas head coach Bruce Cassidy said on Friday. "If everything goes well, then we'll anticipate he'll go tomorrow." The 32-year-old has tallied four goals and 32 points across 62 games on the season, adding 137 shots and 155 blocks to his ledger, boosting his fantasy value. The Golden Knights sit third in the Pacific Division with a 40-25-8 record, one point ahead of the Los Angeles Kings while playing one more game.

Alex Pietrangelo To Miss Fourth Straight Game Monday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo will miss his fourth straight game when the club travels to St. Louis to take on the Blues on Monday. Pietrangelo has enjoyed a solid season but one that has fallen below his previously high standards. He has recorded four goals and 32 points across 62 games on the campaign, adding 155 blocked shots and a minus-five rating on the season. The emergence of Shea Theodore has had a negative impact on Pietrangelo's offensive production, especially on the power play. He has just eight points on the man advantage this season. The Golden Knights currently occupy the second and final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference with a 38-25-7 record on the season, four points ahead of the Blues with one game in hand.

Alex Pietrangelo Practices In Non-Contact Jersey Monday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (face) practiced in a red, non-contact jersey Monday as he looks to work towards a return to the lineup. The veteran blue-liner suffered a cut to the face on Oct. 13 when he was hit with a slap shot and has not appeared in a contest since. The 33-year-old tied a career-high with 54 points last season while also adding 170 shots, 65 hits, and a hefty 177 blocked shots, the latter of which was a career-high. While he is very much fantasy-relevant, Pietrangelo's value takes a hit with teammate Shea Theodore thriving in first-unit power-play duties. Even if he doesn't see PP1 time, Pietrangelo is still a valued fantasy asset, especially in leagues that count blocks.

Alex Pietrangelo Could Be Back In Practice Monday

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (upper body) has missed four games but is progressing and could be back in practice on Monday. He's been out of commission after taking a puck to the head. Pietrangelo has resumed skating in the past few days, and he might be an option for the team on Tuesday against Philadelphia if he can get a full practice under his belt on Monday. The 33-year-old was Vegas' most prolific blue-liner last season with 54 points (11 goals, 43 assists) in 73 games. He had one assist in two games with three shots on goal and three blocks before getting sidelined.

Alex Pietrangelo Sits Out Saturday's Action

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (upper body) isn't available to face the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday. The veteran blue-liner was injured in Thursday's clash with San Jose when he got bloodied by a puck, and Pietrangelo apparently needs a bit more time to recover. Kaedan Korczak will join the lineup in his absence on Saturday. The 22-year-old has two points, both coming via assists, in 11 career appearances in the NHL prior to Saturday's action.

Alex Pietrangelo Gets Hurt In Thursday's Win

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alex Pietrangelo couldn't complete Thursday's 4-1 victory over San Jose after taking a puck to the face. It was an unfortunate ending to a great night, as Vegas dominated the contest, and Pietrangelo played his part in it with an assist. He got off the ice on his own, which is a good sign regarding Pietrangelo's availability for the next games. The Golden Knights have Friday off before facing Anaheim Saturday night. Pietrangelo has started the season well, grabbing one point with three shots on goal and three blocks across the first two games.
