Megna has played 193 career NHL games but spent most of the 2024-25 season in the AHL. The 32-year-old defenseman scored 16 points (2G / 14A) in 62 games with the Charlotte Checkers (AHL). He provides the Vegas Golden Knights with depth at the defence position after signing a two-year deal worth $800K AAV.

Pittsburgh added to its defensive depth on Tuesday by signing three-year veteran Parker Wotherspoon to a two-year, $2 million contract ($1,000,000 AAV). The 27-year-old appeared in a career high 55 games with Boston in 2024-25, picking up a goal, seven points and a -10 plus/minus. He is expected to play an everyday role for the Penguins in 2025-26.

Pietrangelo and the Golden Knights released a statement on Monday that Pietrangelo is dealing with hips that would require bilateral femur reconstruction, with no guarantee of success. “After exploring options with doctors as well as my family, it’s been advised to remove the intensity of hockey to see if my body can improve so that I can return to a normal quality of life," Pietrangelo said. The veteran blueliner will be stepping away from hockey for the 2025-26 season, and his future beyond that is uncertain. Pietrangelo will be placed on LTIR.

By acquiring Marner's rights, the Golden Knights were able to secure an eight-year contract worth $12M AAV before free agency opened on July 1st. Marner entered the league as a 19-year-old in the 2016-17 season and played the entirety of his nine-year career with the Toronto Maple Leafs, being amongst the league leaders over that time with 741 points (221G / 520A) in 657 games. The 28-year-old Marner will be motivated to continue his point-per-game production with a new team, likely playing alongside Jack Eichel.

Late Sunday, Vegas announced that they had moved the rights to Nicolas Hague to Nashville for Jeremy Lauzon and Colton Sissons. Lauzon is a 28-year-old defenseman who appeared in only 28 games for Nashville during the 2024-25 season, struggling offensively, with a modest assist and 37 PIMs, while averaging 17:58 TOI/GP. He is expected to battle for one of Vegas' final defensive spots ahead of the 2025-26 season.

After a successful second campaign with Grand Rapids (AHL), Antti Tuomisto has earned himself a one-year, two-way contract extension to remain with Detroit. The 24-year-old defenseman was Detroit's 2019 2nd-round pick (35th overall) and had three goals, 27 points and 54 PIMs in 67 games in 2024-25 with Grand Rapids (AHL).

Hill allowed three goals on 32 shots in the Golden Knights' 3-0 loss in Edmonton in Game 4. Hill has allowed three-plus goals in every game this series and now Vegas finds themselves on the brink of elimination. Overall, Hill has gone 5-5 with a 3.15 GAA and .876 SV% in 10 playoff games.

Stone was absent from the morning skate and despite head coach Bruce Cassidy calling him a game-time decision, there are reports that he won't play in Game 5. Look for Victor Olofsson to move up to the Jack Eichel line and for Nicolas Roy to move up to the second-line in Stone's absence.

Hill will make his tenth start of the 2025 NHL Playoffs when the Golden Knights travel to Edmonton for Game 4 on Monday. Hill secured the victory in Game 3, allowing three goals on 20 shots before Reilly Smith netted the game-winning goal with less than a second remaining in regulation. The Golden Knights enter action on Monday at +105 on the money line.

Stone left Game 3 with an upper-body injury but was on the ice for Monday's morning skate and will be a game-time decision for Game 4. Based on the morning skate, it looks very likely that Stone will play, as he skated on the top line and top power-play unit.

Stone left Game 3 after just six shifts and 5:54 TOI due to an undisclosed injury but is hopeful to return for Game 4 on Monday after announcing his diagnosis is day-to-day. The 32-year-old Golden Knights' captain will make a massive loss if he is forced to miss any time after picking up four goals and eight points in his first nine playoff games.
