@RussoHockey Jonathan Marchessault is the 10th undrafted Conn Smythe Trophy winner in NHL history and first since Wayne Gretzky in 1988. But in reality, he’s really the first true one. The others were WHA players, guys on protected lists, etc. They were not overlooked. He was.

@SlimCliffy since 2008, only two players have had a single postseason with more primary assists at 5v5 than Eichel just had these playoffs. seems a good list: https://t.co/y80FwZAxmP

@SNstats With a few more solid performances, Adin Hill could set the mark for the best save percentage in a goalie's first career postseason

@JesseGranger_ Jonathan Marchessault didn't score a goal in the first 7 games of these playoffs.
He has 10 in the last 10 (+1 period), tying the Vegas franchise record for a single postseason.

@DannyWebster21 Brett Howden ruled out the rest of the game.

@FriedgeHNIC Stephenson, who missed the morning skate due to illness, is out there for Vegas. Both Hakanpaa and Dellandrea are there for DAL
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) May 23, 2023
@JesseGranger_ Bruce Cassidy says Chandler Stephenson is under the weather so they held him out of morning skate.
He said he assumes he will play tonight, but “we’ll find out.”

@JesseGranger_ In his first Stanley Cup Playoffs, Adin Hill has gone 5-1 with a .930 SV%.
He stays calm and collected in the crease with breathing techniques he’s used since he was a teenager.

@DannyWebster21 Brossoit and Thompson will not be traveling to Dallas, per Cassidy. Patera will remain the third goalie.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) May 22, 2023
@drosennhl Bruce Cassidy said the Golden Knights don’t anticipate any changes in their goaltending for Game 1 Friday, meaning Adin Hill starts and Jonathan Quick backs up. He said Logan Thompson COULD be an option at some point in the series. Unlikely that Laurent Brossoit is as of now.

@JesseGranger_ Bruce Cassidy didn’t have an update on Laurent Brossoit other than he won’t be traveling with the team for Game 6. Jiri Patera will be the 3rd goalie.

- William Karlsson welcomed a baby boy last night, so was allowed to leave early this morning to sleep. - Nothing new on Laurent Brossoit except he’s not dressing tonight. It’ll be Hill + Quick again. - Amadio is with the extras, so he may be coming out.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) May 12, 2023
@JesseGranger_ Bruce Cassidy doesn’t have an update on Laurent Brossoit, said he’s undergoing tests today, possibly an MRI.
@JesseGranger_ Bruce Cassidy said it was a maintenance day for Stephenson and Marchessault.
He said Theodore was “a little under the weather… well, a lot under the weather” missing Game 5 but that he looks to be over it now and practiced today.
McNabb is still day-to-day.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 29, 2023
@JesseGranger_ Shea Theodore is out tonight with an illness, according to the team.

@FriedgeHNIC Shea Theodore did not dress for LV after taking warmup...Brayden Pachal is his replacement.

Incredible. https://t.co/DrCh9EoVYE

@FriedgeHNIC Phil Kessel is not taking warmup for LV. This would be his first missed game since Oct. 31, 2009.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 27, 2023
@JesseGranger_ Bruce Cassidy didn’t have much of an injury update on Carrier and Thompson other than Carrier has been on the ice skating with the black aces, and he’s closer to a return than Thompson, who isn’t skating yet.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 25, 2023
@JesseGranger_ Adin Hill has been a full participant at practice for awhile now and looked good.
Quick spent some extra time on the ice after the skate this morning.
Wouldn’t surprise me if Hill is Brossoit’s backup tonight, rather than Quick.

@BenSGotz Mark Stone and Zach Whitecloud are once again participating in the Knights’ (very optional) practice today. https://t.co/R9gan3Y8Kw
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 16, 2023
@BenSGotz Cassidy didn’t commit to whether Stone and Whitecloud would play Game 1 yet.
He said they practiced in what would be their spots in the lineup in case they were good to go. The Knights want to see how they respond in practices before making a decision.

@garylawless Alec Martinez will finish regular season with 244 blocked shot to lead @nhl. When asked why he's willing to perform this thankless task the @GoldenKnights defenseman says on radio postgame show: "Because that's what it takes to win. And I want to win."

@JesseGranger_ Shea Theodore is skating with the team for the first time since his injury, also in a non-contact jersey.

@SlimCliffy Michael Amadio's primary points/60 at 5v5 over the last two seasons, and the forwards ranked just below him. Seems good? https://t.co/hHTJ784hXN

- Brossoit starts tonight, team hasn’t decided who starts Thursday - Whitecloud is out today and Thursday but Cassidy said “we’re hoping for next week” - Stone had a scheduled day off after his first practice since January
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 11, 2023
@JesseGranger_ Zach Whitecloud won’t play tonight or Thursday in Seattle, but Bruce Cassidy said there’s hope he’ll play next week in the first round of the playoffs, so that’s relatively good news.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 11, 2023
@DannyWebster21 Cassidy on Stone: "Good sign. Looked good. We'll see how he responds tomorrow."
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 10, 2023
@JesseGranger_ Eichel, Theodore and Whitecloud all won’t play tomorrow for Vegas.
Cassidy did say Theodore is back skating, though.
