Howden most recently played on a line with William Karlsson and Grigori Denisenko but will not play on Thursday due to an upper-body injury. The 25-year-old Howden has 13 points (5G / 8A) in 54 games this season and is considered day-to-day with his latest ailment.
Howden has served his suspension for two-games for an illegal check to the head on Seattle's Brandon Tanev and will return to Vegas' lineup Tuesday vs. Dallas. The 25-year-old forward had an assist, 15 PIMs and a SOG through 16 shifts and 11:57 TOI in his only game played this season. He is expected to return to his role on Vegas' fourth line alongside Nicolas Roy and Keegan Kolesar.
The hit occurred midway through the third period of Tuesday's season opener and Howden received a match penalty on the play. Tanev did not return to the game due to what the Kraken are calling an upper-body injury. Prior to his ejection, Howden had played 11:57 and collected an assist while skating alongside Mark Stone and Chandler Stephenson. Mike Amadio and Paul Cotter are the most likely candidates to be prompoted to Vegas' second line in Howden's absence.
Howden had six goals, seven assists, 53 SOG, 55 PIMs and a +5 plus/minus through 54 games with Vegas in 2022-23 and has signed a two-year, $3.8 million extension ($1,900,000 AAV). The 25-year-old centre was a 2017 first-round pick (27th overall) and has 31 goals, 82 points and 120 PIMs through 279 career NHL games across five seasons.
Howden has six goals, seven assists, 53 SOG, 55 PIMs and a +5 plus/minus through 54 games played but will miss game 82 vs. Seattle for the birth of his child. The 25-year-old is expected back in time for the playoffs next week.
Howden hasn't played since Nov. 23rd due to a lower-body injury but will draw back into the Golden Knights' lineup Tuesday vs. the Devils. The 24-year-old has one goal, two assists, 21 SOG, 10 PIMs and a +2 plus/minus through 21 games prior to his injury.
Howden will miss his fourth straight game on Thursday and was moved to IR to open up a roster spot for Daniil Miromanov to be recalled from the AHL. Jake Leschyshyn will continue to centre the Golden Knights' fourth line while Howden is out.
Howden was originally not qualified by the Golden Knights but ended up signing a one-year deal to stay with the team. Howden, who was a first-round pick in 2016, has never lived up to the offensive potential he flashed in the WHL. He's played almost exclusively as a fourth-line centre and will likely continue to do so in 2022-23.
Howden had to be stretchered off of the ice after taking an awkward hit from Filip Forsberg on Thursday night. He was sent to the hospital to undergo evaluation but was released and was at the team facility on Friday. Nothing was broken but he is still expected to be sidelined for an extended period of time.
Howden has missed the last seven games with an undisclosed injury but is set to play Thursday vs. the Panthers. Howden is expected to draw back into the lineup on the fourth line.
Howden has missed the last two games with an undisclosed injury and did not travel out east for the Golden Knights' five-game road trip. Jake Leschyshyn will remain with the Golden Knights and should be in the lineup in Philadelphia.
Howden is the third Golden Knights' skater to go into protocol recently, joining Alex Pietrangelo and Evgenii Dadonov. Both Pietrangelo and Dadonov could be back for New Year's Eve vs. the Ducks, while Howden is likely to miss the next four games.
Howden missed the first two games of the season with an undisclosed injury but will centre the fourth line in Wednesday's game vs. the Blues. He had just one goal and six assists (seven points) in 42 games last year.
Howden will not play Tuesday vs. the Kraken and the Golden Knights have not provided much clarity on his status. Consider Howden day-to-day until Vegas releases a more definitive timetable.
Howden signed a one-year, $885K contract in early July but was sent to Vegas on Saturday and will likely be replaced by Barclay Goodrow, who is a pending UFA but was acquired from the Lightning on the same day. Howden has seen his playing time and offensive numbers drop since his rookie season, finishing 2021-22 with seven points (1G / 6A) in 42 games.
