Golden Knights' Carter Hart: Expectedly starting in Game 5
Hart will tend the home twine Tuesday versus Anaheim in Game 5, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Hart has alternated wins and losses through the first four games against the Ducks, with his last start being his worst in this second-round series. The 27-year-old netminder allowed four goals on 23 shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss in Game 3. The Golden Knights will be without their captain again in Game 5, as Mark Stone (lower body) is set to miss his second consecutive game. Vegas is 3-2 on home ice during the 2026 postseason, while Anaheim is 2-3 on the road.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Not playing Tuesday
Stone (lower body) won't play against Anaheim on Tuesday in Game 5, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Stone will miss his second straight game, and it remains unclear when he will be available to return to the lineup. He has contributed three goals, seven points, 18 shots on net and 12 hits in nine appearances this postseason. The Golden Knights recalled Braeden Bowman from AHL Henderson on Tuesday as a potential replacement for Game 5, but Vegas also has Brandon Saad and Reilly Smith as spare forward options.

Golden Knights' Braeden Bowman: Recalled from minors
Bowman was promoted from AHL Henderson on Tuesday.
Bowman is unlikely to get into the lineup against the Ducks for Game 5 on Tuesday, instead serving as a depth option with Mark Stone (lower body) still unavailable. Still, the 22-year-old Bowman saw action in regular-season games for the Knights this year, generating eight goals and 18 assists, including four power-play points.

Eichel notched two assists, including one on the power play, in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks in Game 4.
Eichel earned his first multi-point effort since Game 5 of the first round versus the Mammoth. He's also stuck in a seven-game goal drought, but he has earned 10 assists in that span, including four with the man advantage. Overall, Eichel has earned a goal, 12 helpers, 25 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 10 playoff contests while filling his usual top-line role.

Marner notched three assists, including one on the power play, and fired two shots on goal in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks in Game 4.

Golden Knights' Tomas Hertl: Snaps lengthy goal drought
Hertl scored a goal in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks in Game 4.
Hertl's last goal came before the trade deadline when he had two points against the Red Wings on March 4. He had been limited to seven assists, 62 shots on net, 50 hits and a minus-11 rating during the 29-game goal drought. Hertl now has three points, 17 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-2 rating over 10 playoff contests. The 32-year-old put up 48 points across 80 previous postseason games prior to his year, earning those numbers across seven prior runs. He has filled a third-line role and appears set to continue in that spot now that William Karlsson is back to center the second line.

Golden Knights' Brett Howden: Pots goal in loss
Howden scored a goal and added four hits in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks in Game 4.
Howden continues to fill the net -- this was his seventh goal of the postseason, all of which have come over his last seven games. The 28-year-old forward has added two assists, 17 shots on net, 29 hits and a plus-4 rating over 10 playoff contests. Howden will continue to see top-six minutes as long as he remains productive, especially with no one in the bottom six stepping up to challenge him for the spot.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Strikes on power play in loss
Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on four shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks in Game 4.
Dorofeyev had gone four games without a goal, chipping in two assists in that span. The winger got the Golden Knights on the board in the first period of this contest. Throughout the playoffs, he's racked up five goals, two assists, 25 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 10 appearances. Dorofeyev has maintained a top-six role, though his 18:32 of ice time Sunday was his highest in any second-round game and his second-highest total in the postseason.

Golden Knights' Carter Hart: Falls short in Game 4
Hart stopped 19 of 23 shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks in Game 4.
Hart had allowed a total of five goals on 94 shots over the first three games of this series, so this was a bit of a letdown performance. The 27-year-old hadn't posted a save percentage lower than .926 over his previous four contests. He's now at a 6-4 record with a 2.55 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 10 playoff games. This series has become a best-of-three to wrap it up, making Tuesday's Game 5 in Vegas a critical one to win.

Golden Knights' Carter Hart: Looking to take 3-1 series lead
Hart will defend the road crease in Game 4 against the Ducks on Sunday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Hart has been phenomenal in the second round against an Anaheim club that sits fourth in the NHL in postseason scoring with 3.56 goals per game. The 27-year-old has allowed two or fewer goals in each of the first three games in this series. Overall in the 2026 playoffs, Hart is 6-3 with a 2.39 GAA and a .912 save percentage through nine outings. The netminder and his team can take a 3-1 series lead with a win Sunday, but Vegas will be without its captain in Game 4, as Mark Stone is contending with a lower-body injury.

Golden Knights' William Karlsson: Picks up helper Friday
Karlsson logged an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 6-2 win over the Ducks in Game 3.
Karlsson has played in all three games in the second round against the Ducks. He saw 19:20 of ice time Friday, which is especially notable considering the game was a blowout that would have been a good time to afford him some rest. The center missed 74 consecutive games due to a lower-body injury, but Friday's performance suggests he's as healthy as he can be for the rest of the postseason. Karlsson is likely to continue playing in a middle-six role.

In the postseason, the defenseman has three points, 14 shots, 22 hits, 20 blocks and a plus-5 rating across nine outings. McNabb continues to fill a key shutdown role for the Golden Knights, which earns him top-four minutes on a regular basis.

Howden helped out on the second goal of Mitch Marner's hat trick midway through the second period before adding an empty-netter of his own in the third. After a quiet start to the postseason, Howden has thrived with top-six responsibilities lately. He's up to six goals, two helpers, 16 shots on net, 25 hits, four PIM and a plus-3 rating over nine playoff contests.
