Golden Knights' Noah Hanifin: Two points against Pens
Rotowire
Hanifin produced an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to Pittsburgh.
The 28-year-old blueliner was instrumental in forcing OT, feeding Pavel Dorofeyev for Vegas' opening goal late in the second period before tying things up himself with just seven seconds left in regulation. Hanifin has never been a consistently elite offensive contributor, but he's taking full advantage of the absence of Shea Theodore (arm), erupting for three goals and eight points over the last six contests with five of those points (one goal, four helpers) coming on the power play.

Rotowire
Hanifin registered an assist in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Devils.
Hanifin went 15 games without a point, a span in which he was also minus-10.

Hanifin has had at least 38 points in each of the last three seasons, but he's at 22 points, 100 shots on net, 81 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 55 appearances in 2024-25. His defensive play will keep him from getting scratched, but he doesn't need to be active in all fantasy formats.

Rotowire

Golden Knights' Noah Hanifin: Logs assist Tuesday
Rotowire
Hanifin notched a power-play assist, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Kings.
Hanifin has endured a rough start to the campaign. The 27-year-old has just two assists to go with 10 shots on net, 13 blocked shots, six hits and a minus-1 rating over seven contests. After Hanifin began his Vegas tenure with 17 points (eight on the power play) over 26 games between the end of the regular season and the playoffs, it's a little shocking he's been less productive to begin 2024-25. Shea Theodore (illness) and Alex Pietrangelo have handled the power-play duties for the most part, leaving Hanifin in a more defensive role.
