Golden Knights' Tomas Hertl: Will miss at least three games
Rotowire
Hertl (shoulder) did not travel with Vegas for its upcoming three-game road trip, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports Monday.
Hertl was injured in Sunday's 4-2 win over Tampa Bay after being boarded by Emil Lilleberg. Hertl won't be available for at least the next three games, so William Karlsson figures to slide into a top-six role in the interim, while Tanner Pearson or Cole Schwindt could receive more playing time in the bottom six. Hertl shouldn't be expected to return to the lineup until at least April 1 versus Edmonton. The left-shot center has racked up 31 goals and 59 points over 70 appearances in 2024-25.

Rotowire

He appeared to be favoring his right arm, but the extent of his injury isn't yet known. The Golden Knights will have a day off before a road matchup in Minnesota on Tuesday, and Hertl is slated to be reevaluated Monday. If the 31-year-old is forced to miss time, Tanner Pearson and Cole Schwindt are candidates to enter the lineup.
