Kolesar produced an assist and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes. - Kolesar had been held off the scoresheet in his last three games before setting up Nolan Patrick's second-period tally. The 24-year-old Kolesar has a career-high 15 points with 57 shots on net, 118 hits and 35 PIM in 43 games this season. He'll typically play more of a checking role on the Golden Knights' third line. |

Kolesar scored a power-play goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Maple Leafs. - Kolesar tied the game at 1-1 with his first career power-play tally in the first period. The 24-year-old saw time on the power play with Nicolas Roy entering the COVID-19 protocols before Tuesday's game. Kolesar is up to three goals, a career-best 14 points, 53 shots on net, 103 hits, 33 PIM and a plus-1 rating through 39 appearances. He could continue to see a slightly larger role in the short term, though his fantasy appeal likely remains limited to deeper formats. |

The assist ended a four-game point drought for Kolesar. The 24-year-old is up to eight points, 39 shots on net, 68 hits, 23 PIM and a minus-2 rating in 25 contests. While he's seen some time in a middle-six role this year, he'll likely remain in a fourth-line capacity as long as the Golden Knights' forward group stays healthy. |

Kolesar notched an assist in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Predators. - Kolesar set up Adam Brooks' first goal as a Golden Knight at 11:12 of the second period.

Kolesar scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, logged four hits, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jackets. - Kolesar did a little bit of everything Saturday, most notably scored his first goal of the season at 7:07 of the second period to spark the Golden Knights' comeback. The 24-year-old played on the third line in this contest -- his physical style is more suited to a bottom-six role. Through 18 outings, Kolesar has six points, 36 shots on net, 58 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-3 rating. |

Kolesar logged an assist and three hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings. - Kolesar set up a Paul Cotter goal with 54 seconds left in the second period. The 24-year-old Kolesar has two helpers in his last three games, but he's struggled to produce offense in a more prominent role. The winger has just four helpers to go with 54 hits, 34 shots on net and 16 PIM through 17 appearances. Once the Golden Knights get Jonathan Marchessault out of COVID-19 protocols, Kolesar should return to a bottom-six assignment. |
None |

Kolesar logged an assist, five shots on goal and three hits in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Canucks. - Kolesar had a hand in Jake Leschyshyn's first NHL goal at 2:20 of the third period. The assist ended an eight-game point drought for Kolesar, who has faded after a respectable start to the season. The tough winger has three helpers, 33 shots on net, 48 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-3 rating in 15 contests. He'll likely remain in a bottom-six role, especially as the Golden Knights get players back from injury. |
